【課文】
After breakfast, I sent the children to school and then I went to the shops. It was still early when I returned home. The children were at school, my husband was at work and the house was quiet. So I decided to make some meat pies. In a short time I was busy mixing butter and flour and my hands were soon covered with sticky pastry. At exactly that moment, the telephone rang. Nothing could have been more annoying. I picked up the receiver between two sticky fingers and was dismayed when I recognized the voice of Helen Bates. It took me ten minutes to persuade her to ring back later. At last I hung up the receiver. What a mess! There was pastry on my fingers, on the telephone, and on the doorknobs. I had no sooner got back to the kitchen than the doorbell rang loud enough to wake the dead. This time it was the postman and he wanted me to sign for a registered letter!
早飯后,我把孩子們送去學(xué)校,然后自己去了商店。我回家時(shí)還早。孩子們?cè)趯W(xué)校,我丈夫在上班,家里很安靜。于是我決定做些肉餡餅。不一會(huì)兒,我就開始忙著攪拌黃油和面粉,很快我的手上就沾滿了黏糊糊的面團(tuán)。就在這時(shí),電話鈴響了。沒有什么比這更讓人惱火了。我用兩根沾滿面糊的手指拿起聽筒,當(dāng)聽出是海倫·貝茨的聲音時(shí),我失望極了。我花了十分鐘才說服她過會(huì)兒再打來。最后,我掛斷了電話。真是一團(tuán)糟!我的手指上、電話機(jī)上、門把手上都沾滿了面糊。我剛回到廚房,門鈴就響得震耳欲聾,足以把死人吵醒。這次是郵遞員,他要我簽收一封掛號(hào)信!
