It was my friend Christina' s birthday last Tuesday so we decided to go out for a meal.上周二是我朋友克里斯蒂娜的生日,所以我們出去吃了晚飯。We booked a table for six o'clock at a nice restaurant in town and arranged to meet at five to six, outside the restaurant.我們在鎮(zhèn)里一家很棒的餐館預定了6點的位子,還約定5:55在餐館外碰頭。I live in a small village about six kilometers from the town and my dad kindly offered to drive me to the restaurant.我住在離小鎮(zhèn)6公里遠的一個小村莊里,我爸爸很體貼地開車送我到了餐館。Unfortunately, his car broke down on the way, and we had to wait for the garage to send out a worker to get the car started again.不幸的是,他的車半路拋錨了,我們必須等汽車修理廠派工人來修車。Anyway, that made me very late.不管怎么樣,那使得我遲到了很久。Everyone else was there and was already eating.所有人都到了而且已經開始吃飯了。It was then that I realized that I didn't have Christina' s present or card with me - they were in Dad's car.那時我才意識到我把克里斯蒂娜的生日禮物和卡片落在了爸爸的車上。I felt terrible as everyone else gave Christina something for her birthday.其他人都給了克里斯蒂娜生日禮物,這讓我感覺很糟。Everything went fine after that - until the end of the meal.之后的一切都很順利,直到晚飯結束的時候。We got the bill and were working out how much each person had to pay when I realized that I didn't have my wallet with me either.我們收到賬單,開始計算每個人應該付多少錢,這時候我發(fā)現我也沒帶錢包。I had to borrow some money from one of my friends.我只能向我的一個朋友借錢。Everyone thought it was very funny, but I was really embarrassed.所有人都覺得很有趣,唯獨我感到很尷尬。
