Yung-ming went to bed at 2 a.m., because his neighbor Mrs. Wang and her friends were playing mahjong at 1:00. Yung-ming couldn't sleep. So, he was very angry. He ran to his neighbor's door and rang the bell. Mrs. Wang opened the door and said, "Hi! How are you?" Yung-ming said, "Not well! I can't get to sleep, because when you play mahjong, you and your friends make a lot of noise! Please don't play anymore, because l want to go to sleep." Mrs. Wang said, "I'm very sorry. I won't play it at night anymore." So, Yung-ming ran back to his house and went to sleep.
