The Forgetful Man | 健忘的人

English Original

Tom was exhausted and went to bed as soon as he got home.

Suddenly, it occurred to him that he had planned to do something that evening. Unable to remember what it was, he tossed and turned in bed for a long time.

Finally, it came to him. "My God," he said depressingly, "the original plan was to go to bed early!"


中文翻译

汤姆疲惫不堪,一到家就上床睡觉了。

忽然间,他想起自己晚上原本计划要做一件事,却怎么也想不起来是什么。他在床上辗转反侧了许久。

最后,他终于想起来了。“天哪,”他沮丧地说道,“我原来的计划就是早点上床睡觉!”
