英文原文:
Later that afternoon
Grandma: Johnny, are you just sitting around again?
Johnny:I'm just taking a break between washing the windows and cleaning the toilet.
Grandma: I'd say all you've done is moved the dirt from the windows on to your face and hands. Disgraceful!
Johnny: I'm doing my best, Grandma...
Grandma: Your best isn't good enough. Back in my day, I'd clean a whole hospital with a toothbrush and spit, and it'd be twice as clean as this sty!
Johnny: Uh-oh, here we go...

参考译文:
稍后,当天下午
奶奶: 强尼,你又在那边摸鱼是不是啊?
强尼: 我刚刚洗完窗户,等一下要洗马桶,我只是中间休息一下。
奶奶: 我说你只是把灰从窗户搬到自己脸上和手上。真不象话!
强尼: 我尽力了,奶奶……
奶奶: 你尽力显然还不够。想当年,我光用一枝牙刷和口水就能清一整间医院,还比这个猪窝干净两倍!
强尼: 糟糕,又来了
