He often does this!「他经常干这种事!」
After I had had lunch at a village inn, I looked for my bag. I had left it on a chair beside the door and now it wasn’t there! As I was looking for it, the inn-keeper came in. ‘Did you have a good meal?’ he asked. ‘Yes, thank you,’ I answered, ‘but I can’t pay the bill. I haven’t got my bag.’ The inn-keeper smiled and immediately went out. In a few minutes he returned with my bag and gave it back to me. ‘I’m very sorry,’ he said ‘ My dog had taken it into the garden. He often does this.’
译:

“您吃得好吗?”他问。
“很好,谢谢。”我回答,“但我付不了帐,我的提包没有了。”
酒店老板笑了笑,马上走了出去。一会儿工夫他拿着我的提包回来了,把它还给了我。
“实在抱歉,”他说,“我的狗把它弄到花园里去了,他常干这种事!”
