求一篇英语文章的内容,“drink Coca-Cola”
印象里是一个老太太临死叫一个人帮忙写遗嘱,说了很多内容,最后说把纸给她,她要签字;然而那个人写完就离开了,老太太死了,纸上只写了“Coca-Cola,drink Coca-cola”.
求这篇文章的内容,以及如果可能的话,它到底出自哪里,内容怎么这么无厘头?

我来补答
A boy walked along Carver Street,singing a sad song.He walked with his head down.Once he looked up and noticed the sign across the empty street,painted on the side of an old house.On the sign a big woman with yellow hair and a five-mile smile held out a big bottle.“Coca-Cola.Drink Coca-Cola,” the sign said.
“Boy!” the silence was cut by a sudden cry.He turned around quickly to see who had called..
An old woman was standing at her door.
“You boy!Come here this minute.”
Slowly the boy stepped onto the cold flat stones leading to the old woman's house.When he arrived at her house,she reach out her hand and wrapped her dry old fingers around his arm.
“Help me inside,boy,” she said.“Help me walk over to my bed.What's your name?”
“Joseph,” he said.
The old woman on the bed tried to sit up,raising herself on her elbow.Water ran from her eyes and mouth.The sight of her made Joseph feel sick.
“I'm dying,Joseph.You can see that,can't you?I want you to write a will for me.There's paper and a pencil on the table there."
Joseph looked down at the paper ,and then looked out of the window.He saw the sign again:“Coca-Cola.Drink Coca-Cola.”
“I want my silver pin to go to my daughter.”
Joseph bent his small body over the table and moved the pencil slowly across the paper.
“There's my Bible,” the old woman said.“That's for my daughter,too.I want a real Christian burial with lots of singing.Write that down,too.That's the last wish of a poor old woman.”
The boy labored over the paper.Again he looked out of the window.
“Here.Bring it here so I can sign it.”
Joseph found the Bible,and,placing the paper inside,laid it next to the bed.
“ Leave me now,boy,” she sighed.“I'm tired.”
He ran out of the house.
A cold wind blew through the open window,but the old woman on the bed felt nothing.She was dead.The paper in the Bible moved back and forth in the wind.Written on the paper were some childish letters.They formed the words:“Coca-Cola.Drink Coca-Cola.”
附:这篇文章是我20多年前刚参加工作时,在中央人民广播电台的星期日英语节目中学习过的,申葆青老师播讲,反映了美国社会的一个阴暗方面.至今记忆犹新,文章有安徒生《卖火柴的小女孩》一般的悲怆.
