用dreamily/小梦续写(9)
」といい、今日见なければ、あなたがどれほどの一品が、私にあなたを捕まえに来。」
"やれるましょう。李さんが言って、準備して立ち去った。
"见を待っている。
「ふん!」
"と威嚇した。李さんが寒いふんという音、それから急ぎ足のカフェを離れた。
李さんが去った直后、劉理事が自分の秘書に电话をかけている。
*感觉像电视剧一样
Rod Rice, a famous architect, asked why rice was so popular.
*此处为原文
People who had the time to read his papers said that it’s “a great way to get rid of all your troubles and help you sleep better at night.” He asked why the food is called rice when he knew perfectly well there were other names for this.
有时间阅读他的论文的人说,这是“摆脱所有烦恼的好方法,帮助你在晚上睡得更好。”他问为什么这种食物叫米饭,他明明知道米饭还有别的名字。
His answer was, “because it’s not rice.” The people in charge said the same thing about this, too.
Rod had been asked this question hundreds of times since being hired by the company as a junior architect; it’s almost a routine now. But it still throws him off every once in a while.
他的回答是:“因为这不是大米。”负责这件事的人也说了同样的话。
自从被这家公司聘用为初级建筑师以来,罗德已经被问到这个问题数百次了;现在这几乎成了例行公事。但偶尔还是会让他抓狂。
And this morning was no different. It’s 7am, or rather, 6 am, and the only thing keeping him from sleeping through the day has been the fact that he spent most of the night reading a new book on design and he didn’t want to waste any more daylight than he already has.
