Unit 2 A Remarkable Talent 一位了不起的天才
“Did you know I could tell time by the piano?” asked one friend of another .
“你相信我可以由鋼琴知道現在幾點鐘嗎？”一位老兄向他的朋友問道。
“You’re kidding,” replied his companion dubiously.
“別開玩笑了！”他的朋友懷疑地回答。
“I’ll show you,” said the first man as sat down at the piano and started to hammer out a martial tune.
“那我試給你看，”說著那位老兄就坐在鋼琴前開始彈起一首進行曲。
Within seconds came a pounding on the wall, and an angry voice shouting, “Hey, you son of a bitch, don’t you realize it’s three o’clock in the morning?”
幾秒鐘后墻壁傳來捶打聲，一個憤怒的聲音叫道“：嘿！你他媽的，你知不知道現在是凌晨三點鐘？”
