A bill collector knocked on the door of a country debtor.
“Is Fred home?”he asked the woman who answered the door.
“Sorry,”the woman replied.“Fred's gone for cotton.”
The next day the collector tried again.“Is Fred here today?”
“No,sir,”she said,“I'm afraid Fred has gone for cotton.”
When he returned the third day the sarcastically said,“I suppose Fred is gone for cotton again?”
“No,”the woman answered solemnly,“Fred died yesterday.”
Suspicious that he was being avoided, the collector decided to investigate the cemetery himself, but sure enough, there was poor Fred's tombstone, with this inion:“Gone,But Not for Cotton.”

Rich man: Ah! That's the easiest question in the world. One plus one is two. Anybody knows that I have two groups of sheep.

When you find something you like, you should just ask the price and try to leave. Then the seller will try to keep you by lowering the price.A:首先,即便你真的很喜欢某样东西,也不能让人觉得你对它感兴趣。发现了喜欢的,就问问价格,然后离开。到时候卖主自然就会压低价格留住你了。B:How about if he or she lets me go?B:那他/她要是不理我呢?A:Then you go and look for the same thing in the next stall.A:那你就走啊,到别的摊儿上再找找同样的东西。

Before I went to the book stall, my purse was still there. And when we were looking at books, both of us bent down, and I put my bag on my back.B:是啊,所以我就努力回忆最后一次拿钱包是在哪里。我去书店之前,钱包还在呢,后来我们看书的时候,都特别专注,我就把书包背在后面了。A:So what happened next?A:后来呢?B:Since he managed to steal my purse he would probably try for another one too.

But we are students. I don't think we should spend lots of money on luxury gifts we can't afford. You can buy a stone necklace in the street market for her now and buy a real diamond necklace in a jewelry shop one day in the future.B:是,我知道。可我们还是学生啊。我觉得我们不应该花很多钱去买那些我们根本买不起的奢侈礼物。你可以在路边市场给她买一条石头项链,等将来有钱了,再到珠宝店给她买真正的钻石项链。A:If she dumps me when I give her the stone necklace, then what do I do?A:那要是她甩了我怎么办?B:Then let her go. It proves she doesn't really love you.B:那就随她去吧,这说明她并不是真的爱你的。A:Oh, no, I don't want her to leave me.A:哦,不,我不想让她离开我的。B:Don't worry, I am sure she won't. She is not that superficial.
