柜台 counter [英][ˈkaʊntə(r)] [美][ˈkaʊntɚ] 中英文故事：柜台是安迪被判入狱的原因 几年前，安迪被判处有期徒刑。在他服刑期间，他跟警卫和他的狱友。监狱长都相处很好。他们发现安迪内心深处是个好人，于是安排安迪在服刑时学习。 三年后，安迪被公认为是一个在本地区最好的木匠。他经常会被赋予某一个周末为社会公民做一些临时工作。他也总是在星期日晚上之前结束工作回监狱报到。 典狱长想重新修建他的厨房，事实上他自己已经做了很多工作。但是，他没有能力建立一套橱柜和一个大的柜台，而他已经答应了他的妻子。所以，他把安迪叫到他的办公室，请他帮助完成剩下的工作。 但是，安迪拒绝了。他告诉监狱长：“天啊，我真的很想帮你，但是，安装柜台就是让我进了监狱的原因”。 Several years ago, Andy was sentenced to prison. During his stay, he got along well with the guards and all his fellow inmates. The warden saw that deep down, Andy was a good person and made arrangements for Andy to learn a trade while doing his time. After three years, Andy was recognized as one of the best carpenters in the local area. Often he would be given a weekend pass to do odd jobs for the citizens of the community.... and he always reported back to prison before Sunday night was over. The warden was thinking of remodeling his kitchen and in fact had done much of the work himself. But he lacked the skills to build a set of kitchen cupboards and a large counter top which he had promised his wife. So he called Andy into his office and asked him to complete the job for him. But, alas, Andy refused. He told the warden, "Gosh, I'd really like to help you but counter fitting is what got me into prison in the first place" 中英文例句 Which brings us back to your grandma. 让我们回到你奶奶的问题。 My grandma goes to the park on foot every day. 我外婆每天步行去公园。 I am the apple of my grandma's eye. 我是姥姥的掌上明珠。 Mah-jongg's not just for grandma anymore. 麻将不再仅仅是奶奶辈女人的专属。 Grandpa looked at grandma, and they both looked at margie. 爷爷和奶奶对视了一下，一起看着玛姬。 |
