In every language there are some words. These words have some interesting stories behind them. For example, the word "Sandwich(三明治)", is very common in English. If we want to know the story behind it, we must know something about an English nobleman(贵人), his name is Sandwich.
Sandwich lived in the 18th century. He was rich, but he liked to play cards for money(钱). He often played for 24 hours, and did not even stop to have his meals. He let his servant(仆人)bring some meat and bread, and he played when eating. He put the meat between two pieces of bread, and he held the food in his left hand when he played with his fight hand. People liked Sandwich’s idea and began to eat bread and meat in this way.
From the name of the man Sandwich, we have the word "Sandwich" today.
