Not long ago I was invited out to dinner by a girl called Alley.I had met Alley once,and she was very very beautiful.I was flattered."She likes me,"I thought .But I was in for a disappointment."I'm so sorry we asked you at such short notice,"she said when I arrived,"but we suddenly realized there were going to be thirteen people at the table,so we just had to find somebody else.Don't reproach me.I was not on purpose.It was too late to inform you."
不久之前，一个叫Alley的女孩邀请我出去吃晚餐。我见过Alley一次，她长得非常非常漂亮！我很开心。“她喜欢我”，我是这样认为的。但是我必定要失望的。“我很抱歉，我们是临时通知你的”当我到达时她这样说，“但是我们突然意识到吃饭时将会有13个人，所以我们不得不找其他人。请不要责备我。我不是故意的。我太迟通知你了。”
