Why does the writer use 'I haven't got my bag.'to express that he couldn't find his bag?
为什么作者用‘I haven't got my bag'来表达自己找不到包,而不是用'I can't find my bag.' Thanks

After I had had lunch at a village pub,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 my bag,the landlord 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.(就是这句)
The landlord smiled and immediately went out.In a few minutes he returned with my bag and gave it back to me.
'I am very sorry.'he said.'My dog had taken it into the garden.He often does this.'

It is a very commonly used phrase in English. It could mean the person just did not have their bag with them. I don't know why we use it. We just do. : )

这是新概念2的课本吧。haven't 这句表示的是完成时,指的是作者找了一阵子了。而can't句仅表示当时的情况。相比较来说前一句更好
