The next day, she received a reply from the boss:
Dear Marian,
I kNOw you have been working very hard. NOwadays, NOthing much has changed. You must have NOticed that our company is NOt doing NOticeably well as yet.
NOw the newspaper are saying the world’s leading ecoNOmists are NOt sure if the United States may go into aNOther recession. After the NOvember presidential elections things may turn bad.
I have NOthing more to add NOw. You kNOw what I mean.
Yours truly,

亲爱的老板,
当今的生活，我们都有最迫切需要的东西。我想你应该明白我们的需要。工人们为贵公司付出了这么多的努力，包括汗水和服务。
我相信你能猜到我的意思，并很快作出答复。
此致，
玛丽安 石
第二天，她收到了老板的回信：
亲爱的玛丽安,
我知道你一直很努力工作。如今，什么都没有改变。你一定注意到了，我们公司还没有做得很明显的好。
现在报纸上都说了世界顶尖的经济学家还不能确定美国是否可能进入另一次的衰退。十一月总统选举后事情有可能更糟。
我没有更多的补充了。你知道我的意思。
敬上，
经理
2 一个小姑娘的希望 A Girl's Wish
On the way home after watching a ballet performance, the kindergarten teacher asked her students what they thought of it. The smallest girl in the class said she wished the dancers were taller so that they wouldn't have to stand on their toes all the time.
看完芭蕾舞表演，幼儿园的老师在回家的路上问她班里的孩子们感觉怎么样。班里最小的一个女孩说，她希望演员们个子再高点就好了，这样就不用踮着脚跳了。
3 很对 Correct
Teacher: Jimmy, what are the three words which pupils use most often at school?
Jimmy: I don’t know...
Teacher: Correct.
教师：吉米，学生在学校里经常用的三个字是什么？
吉米：不知道……
老师：很对。
4 计划你的将来 Make your fortune
"How did you make your fortune?"
"I became the partner of a rich man. He had the money and I had the experience."
"How did that help?"
"Now he has the experience and I has the money."
“你是怎么计划你的将来的？”
“我变成一个富人的合伙人，他有钱，我有经验。”
“那有什么用？”
“现在他有经验了，我有钱。”
5 谁的50分 Whose 50 cents
Jacky: I found 50 cents on the sidewalk in front of school.
Tommy: I think it's mine. I dropped 50 cents there today and couldn't find it.
Jacky: But what I found was two quarters.
Tommy: Then I'm sure it's mine. It probably broke when it hit the sidewalk.
杰克：我在学校门前的人行道上拣了50分。
汤米：我想那是我的，今天我在那儿掉了50分，找不到了。
杰克：但是我拣的是两个两毛五的呀。
汤米：那就更是我的了。因为钱在掉到地上的时候可能摔两半了。
6 你以为你是谁？ Who do you think you are?
The bus was crowded, and as one more man tried to get on, the passengers wouldn’t let him aboard.
“It is too crowded, “they shouted.” who do you think you are?”
“I am the driver.” he said.
公共汽车上很挤，当又一个人还是试图上车时，乘客们不让他上。
“车上太挤了，”他们喊道，“你以为你是谁？”
“我是司机！”他说。

小男孩：因为不管老师问什么，我都回答“不知道”。
