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 住在倫敦一條小街上,，現(xiàn)在她有了一個新的鄰居。她的名字是Mrs Briggs,，她說了很多關(guān)于她昂貴的家具,、美麗的地毯以及新的廚房,。
“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.”
“I've had a dishwasher for twelve and a half years,”Mrs Williams said.
“我有一個洗碗機(jī)已經(jīng)有12年半的時間了,，”Mrs Williams說,。
“Oh?” Mrs Briggs answered，“And does yours put the things in the cupboard when it has washed them?”She laughed nastily.
“哦,？”Mrs Briggs回答,，“那你的可以把洗好的東西放到柜子里嗎?”她陰險地笑了。
“Yes, he does,” Mrs Williams answered,，“He dries the dishes and puts them away.”
“是的,，他可以，”Mrs Williams回答,，“他弄干碗碟后會把他們放好,。”

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.
