The Throwaway Camera | 一次性相机

点击查看中英对照

On our way to a wedding in Vermont, my husband and I realized we had forgotten our camera. We stopped at a general store, hoping to purchase a cheap, disposable model. Sal asked the owner, "Do you have any of those throwaway cameras?"

"Look, fella," replied the owner, "I don't care what you do with it after you buy it."
