“They cant？” The boy asked curiously. “Then what are they doing here？”

圖書管理員走到一個喧鬧的小男孩身邊，警告說：“請安靜！你周圍的人都不能讀書了！”

A Gentle Reminder委婉提醒

Having been married a long time， my husband sometimes needs a gentle reminder of a special occasion. On the morning of our 35th anniversary， we were sitting at the breakfast table when I hinted， “Honey， do you realize that weve been sitting in these same two seats for exactly 35 years？”

Putting down the newspaper， he looked straight at me and said， “So， you want to switch seats？”

婚后已久，我丈夫往往在一個特別事情上需要委婉的提醒。在我們結(jié)婚35周年紀(jì)念的早上，我們正坐在早餐桌旁，我暗示道：“親愛的，你意識到我們在這兩個相同的座位上已坐了整整35年了嗎？”

他放下報紙，眼睛直直地望著我：“因此，你想交換座位嗎？”
