I am five feet, three inches tall and pleasingly plump. After I had a minor accident, my mother accompanied me to the emergency room. The triage nurse asked for my height and weight, and I blurted out, “Five-foot-eight and 125 pounds.” While the nurse pondered this information, my mother leaned over to me. “Sweetheart,” she gently chided, “this is not the Internet.”
我身高五尺三寸,胖得很可愛。在發(fā)生一點小事故之后,我媽送我到急診室去。預(yù)檢護士問我身高體重,我隨口說:“五尺八寸,125磅”。當護士正在琢磨這些數(shù)字的時候,我媽湊近我,小聲指責我說:“孩子,這里可不是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)”。
