To Buy a Video | 买录像机

English Original

Amos asked his mother whether they could have a video.

"I'm afraid we can't afford one," sighed his mother.

But on the following day, in came Amos, staggering beneath the weight of a brand-new video.

"How on earth did you pay for that?" gasped his mother.

"Easy, Mum," replied Amos. "I sold the television!"


中文翻译

艾莫斯问妈妈他们是否能买一台录像机。

“恐怕我们还买不起,”妈妈叹息着说。

可第二天,艾莫斯回来了,他摇摇晃晃地搬着一台全新的录像机。

“你究竟是哪儿来的钱买这东西?”妈妈喘着气,大吃一惊地问道。

“妈妈,这简单,”艾莫斯回答,“我把电视机给卖了!”
