A man was talking to his friends about how he hated to go home after a late marble game.
一名男士正在向他的朋友讲述他打弹子球打晚了是如何讨厌回家的。
"You wouldn't believe ehat I go through to avoid waking my life." he said. "First, I kill the engines a block from the house and coast into the garage. Then I open the door softly. Next I take off my shoes and tiptoe into our room. But just as I'm about to slip into quilt, she always wakes up and gives me a hell."
“你肯定不能相信因为怕吵醒妻子，我采取了什么办法。”他说，“首先，在离家还有一个街区的时候，我就把发动机熄了火，靠惯性将车滑进车库。然后我慢慢地打开房门，紧接着我脱掉鞋子，轻手轻脚地走进卧室。可就在我要溜进被窝时，她总会醒来，把我骂个狗血淋头”

"I make a big racket when I go home." his friend said.
“我回家时总是要闹很大动静。”他的朋友说。
" You do?"
“是吗？”
"Sure. I honk the horn, bang the door shut, turn on all the lights, Stomp up the bedroom and give my wife a big kiss, 'Hi Alice', I say, 'how about a big kiss for your old man?'"
“当然啦。我把喇叭按得嘟嘟响，砰地一声把门关上，把灯全部打开，咚咚地走进卧室，再重重吻妻子一下。‘喂，爱丽丝，’我说，‘亲亲你老公，怎么样？’”
"And what did she say? "his friend asked in disbelief.
“她怎么说？”他的朋友不相信地问道。
"She doesn't say anything." his friend replied," she always pretends she's asleep."
“她什么也不说，”他的朋友说，“她总是假装睡着了。”
