At age of 83, Granddad went to hospital for the first time. “What is this?” he asked as he held up the bell cord they had fastened to his pillow.
爺爺在83歲的時候，第一次住進了醫(yī)院。“這是干什么用的？”他抓起系在枕頭旁邊的呼叫鈴的繩子問道。
“That’s the bell, Granddad.” I replied.
“那是拉鈴用的，爺爺?！蔽一卮鹫f。
He pulled it several times, then remarked, “I don’t hear it ringing.”
他拉了幾下問：“我怎么聽不到鈴響呀？”
“Oh, it doesn’t ring,” I explained. “It turns on a light in the hall for the nurse.”
“哦，不是它響，”我解釋道，“你一拉這根繩子，護士值班室的燈就亮了。”
“Well!” he replied indignantly. “If the nurse wants a light on xiaogushi8.com in the hall, she can turn it on herself.”
“原來如此！”他憤怒地說，“如果護士想開燈的話，她完全可以自己動手嘛?！?
