3. Breakfast 早餐

            A: Okay, Bob. I'M ready for beak-fast. Where's the coffee?
            B: It's in that pan there. Jean broke the Silex last week, so I'm
            still boiling it.
            A: It tastes like crankcase oil, but delicious.
            B: That's good. You can always make beaskfast yourself if you don't
            like it.
            A: What is the rebesides coffee?
            B: I warmed a coupleof snails, and your eggs are in the frying pan.
            A: Say, what time is it? Is it really only seven-fifteen. My watch
            says eight-fifteen.
            B: You forgot to set your watch back. Daylight saving time was over
            at midnight last night.
            A: Gee.I could've slept another hour.

            译文：
            A：好，鲍勃，我已准备好吃早饭了。咖啡在哪儿？
            B：在那只锅里。吉恩上星期把渗滤壶打碎了，所以我只能用锅煮咖啡。
            A：这味道有点像汽车里的机油，不过还是很好吃。
            B：那好，如果你不喜欢，你随时可以自己动手做早饭。
            A：咖啡旁边是什么东西？
            B：我热的两个面包卷。你的鸡蛋在平煎锅里。
            A：告诉我，现在几点钟了？真的只有七点十五分吗？我的表已经八点十分了。
            B：你忘了把表拔慢一小时。夏令时间已在昨天午夜结束了。
            A：唉！我本来可以再多睡一小时的。
