二十三. A Call from the Secretary
Mr. Young was a boss, and he worked hard. Seldom did he have a vacation. His wife was afraid that he would get sick if he continued like that, so she suggested to him taking a vacation. At last Mr. Young agreed. But she was afraid that he might bedisturbed by his company, so before they left, Mrs. Young went to see her husband's secretary. Mrs. Young told her,“My husband needs a vacation very much, so whatever happens，please don't disturb him with letters or telephones while we are away. Just wait until we get back.”
Then on a pleasant morning, after Mr. and Mrs. Young had been away about a week, when the couple was having a picnic and eating their hamburger, Mr. Young received a phone call from his secretary. She said,“Something terrible has happened to your business, but I remember what Mrs. Young told me，so I'm not going to disturb you with it now while you're enjoying your vacation. Bye-bye!”
【漢語翻譯】
秘書的電話
楊先生是個老板(boss)。他工作很辛苦，很少(seldom)休假(have a vacation)。楊夫人擔心他這樣工作下去會生病(get sick)．就建議(suggest)他去休假。最后，楊先生同意了。但楊夫人擔心公司(company)有可能會打擾(disturb)他，因此，在他們出發前，揚夫人去會見了他丈夫(husband)的秘書(secretary)。她對秘書說：“我丈夫非常需要休息，所以我們不在的時候，無論發生了什么事，請不要打電話或寫信打擾他。一切等我們回來再說。”
于是，在一個令人愉快的(pleasant)早上，那是楊先生和夫人離開大約一周后，當這對夫婦(couple)正在野餐(picnic)，吃著漢堡包(hamburger)時，楊先生接到秘書的電話，她說：“您的生意出現了嚴重問題。但我記得(remember)楊夫人告訴我的話，所以在您享受(enjoy)假期之時，我就不打算打攪您了，再見(Bye-bye)!”?
