Text B My Dishwasher

Mrs Williams lived in a small street in London, and now she had a new neighbor. Her name was Mrs Briggs, and she talked a lot about her expensive furniture, her beautiful carpets and her new kitchen.
Mrs Williams 住在伦敦一条小街上，现在她有了一个新的邻居。她的名字是Mrs Briggs，她说了很多关于她昂贵的家具、美丽的地毯以及新的厨房。

“Do you know,” she said to Mrs Williams one day,“I've got a new dishwasher. It washes the plates and glasses and knives and forks beautifully.”
“你知道吗，”一天她跟Mrs Williams说，“我得到了一个新的洗碗机。它可以把盘子、玻璃杯、刀和叉都洗的非常干净。

“Oh?” Mrs Williams answered，“and does it dry them and put them in the cupboard too?”
“哦？”Mrs Williams回答，“那它能把他们弄干然后放到柜子里吗？”

Mrs Briggs was surprised. “Well,”she answered,“the things in the machine are dry after an hour, but it doesn't put them away, of course.”
Mrs Briggs很吃惊。“嗯，”她回答，“一个小时后这些东西会在那个机器里弄干，但它不会把他们放好，那是当然的。”

“I've had a dishwasher for twelve and a half years,”Mrs Williams said.
“我有一个洗碗机已经有12年半的时间了，”Mrs Williams说。

“Oh?” Mrs Briggs answered，“And does yours put the things in the cupboard when it has washed them?”She laughed nastily.

Frank and Charles discuss last night's television programmer.
Frank: Did you watch television last night, Charles?
Charles: Yes, I did.
Frank: It was a good game, wasn't it?
Charles: Oh, I didn't watch the football match. I wanted to, but my wife preferred to see the old film.
Frank: What a pity. It was quite exciting. Both teams played very well.
Charles: How did it finish?
Frank: It finished in a draw. What was the film like?
Charles: It was quite good. But I missed the beginning of it because I had to eat first.
Frank: Did your wife enjoy it?
Charles: No, she didn't. After half an hour she stopped watching and started to read a book.
