Mr.vsMrs..doc

Mr. Jones was very angry with his wife, and she was very
angry with her husband.
琼斯先生非常恼怒他的妻子，她的妻子也很恼火他。
For several days they did not speak
to each other at all.
几天来，他们都根本不搭理对方。
One evening Mr. Jones was very tired
when he came back from work, so he went to bed soon after
dinner.
一天晚上，琼斯先生下班回家后，他感到非常的累。于是晚饭后，他很快就上床休息了。
Of course, he did not say anything to Mrs. Jones before
he went upstairs. Mrs. Jones washed the dinner things and
then did some sewing.
当然，在他上楼之前，什么也没有和妻子说。琼斯夫人洗完了晚餐用具，做了些针线活。
When she went up to bed much later
than her husband, she found a piece of paper on the small
table near her bed.
当她迟些上楼睡觉时，她发现在床头柜上有一张小纸条。
On it were the words, 'Mother.—Wake
me up at 7 a.m.—Father.' (The words “Mother – wake me up” were on it.)
上面写道：“妈妈—明天早上七点叫醒我”
When Mr. Jones woke up the next morning, it was nearly
8 a.m.—and on the small table near his bed he saw another
piece of paper.
第二天早上，当琼斯先生醒来时已经差不多八点了。在床头柜上放着另外一张纸条。
He took it and read these words: 'Father.—
Wake up. It is 7 a.m.—Mother.'
他拿起来念道：“爸爸—起床了，七点了。—妈妈。”
