无礼的问题：究竟是谁无礼?

发布时间：2016-08-03 编辑：查字典英语网小编

A little girl from the East Side was invited to a garden party given by a very aristocratic lady to a group of little East-Siders.

The little girl, as she drank her tea and ate her plum-cake on a velvet lawn under a white-blooming cherry tree, said to her hostess:

“Does your husband drink?”

“Why-er-no, not to excess,” was the astonished reply.

“How much does he make?”

“He doesn't work, ” said the lady. “He is a capitalist.”

“You keep out of debt, I hope?”

“Of course, child. What on earth do you mean by all these impudent questions?”

“Impudent?” said the little girl. “Why, Ma'am, Mother told me to be sure and behave like a lady, and when ladies call at our rooms they always question Mother like that.”

无礼的问题

一个住在城东贫民区的小女孩获得邀请，参加一位贵妇人为城东贫民区的孩子们举行的花园晚会。

在一棵开满了白色小花儿的樱桃树下，小女孩坐在柔软的草地上，一边品尝着她的茶和梅子蛋糕，一边对贵妇人说：“你的丈夫酗酒吗?” “呃，呃，不，他喝得不多。”夫人一脸惊诧。

“他挣多少钱?”

“他不工作，”夫人回答说，“他是个资本家。”

“我希望你们没有负债吧?”

“当然没有，孩子。你问这么些无礼的问题到底是想说什么呢?”

“无礼?”小女孩说，“怎么会呢，夫人?妈妈要我的举止一定要象夫人们一样，当她们到我们家做客的时候，她们总是那样问我妈妈的。”
