GOOD SIGHT
Lawyer: You say you were about thirty-five feet away from the scene of the accident? Just how far can you see clearly?
Witness: Well, when I wake up in the morning I see the sun, and they tell me it's about ninety-three million miles away.
好视力
律师：你说你离事故现场约有35英尺，你能看清多远的东西？
证人：这么说吧，早上起床后我看见太阳，别人告诉我这大约有9300万英里远。
3.TELEMARKETER
I answered the phone one evening and quickly realized the voice on the other end belonged to a telemarketer.
"Good evening," he said, "may I speak with Leah Jonason?"
"She is a baby, " I replied.
"All right," said the caller, "I'll try again later."
电话推销员
一天晚上我接了一个电话，对方的声音使我很快意识到他是个电话推销员。
“晚上好，”他说，“我想和利厄乔纳森说话。”
“她是个婴儿，”我回答说。
“没关系，”他说，“我以后再打。” |
