来源:www.tanketang.com 2024-05-19
身处办公室的你,一定会碰到很多有趣或无奈的故事,
下面就请你读一篇有趣的办公室的故事 :
One day at lunch, Helen said to her colleagues1, Yesterday was my birthday. I received a lot of presents from my family and friends. Among the presents, I like the pearl2 necklace that my boyfriend-Eric bought for me. It's very beautiful. I think he must have broken the bank to buy it for me.

Woo, is he fine now? Sally, a girl from South Korea,asked.

Sure, he is very fine now.

Was he found by police in the bank? Sally asked again.

No, how do you know he went to bank? And why do you ask whether he was found by police? Helen asked.
Because you said that your boyfriend broke the bank to buy the necklace for you. So when he was breaking the bank, it's very dangerous and easy to be found by police. Sally replied.
No, I think you misunderstand the meaning of BREAKING THE BANK. It doesn't mean that someone robs3 of the bank. It means4 that someone spends all of his money on something. Nancy said.
Oh, I'm really sorry, Helen.
No problem.
