【迷你小對話】

A: What’s the matter with you? Were you born in a barn?
B: What are you talking about? I’m behaving.
A: You walked in here and left the door open, you took the only seat and left grandma standing, and now you have put your feet up on my table.
B: Oh! Sorry. I guess I just forgot my manners.

A: 你怎么搞的？這么沒有教養(yǎng)？
B: 你在說什么？我規(guī)規(guī)矩矩的。
A: 你進(jìn)來了，也不關(guān)門；就一把凳子，你坐著卻讓奶奶站著，現(xiàn)在還把腳放到我的桌子上。
B: 噢，不好意思。失禮了。
