درس دو

Mrs Jones was waiting for an important telephone call, but she had no bread in the house, so she left the baby at home and said to his five-year-old brother,’I am going to the shops, Jimmy, and I will be back in a few minutes.’ While she was out, the telephone rang, and Jimmy answered. ‘Hallo,’ said a man, ‘Is your mother there?’

خانم جونز منتظر یک تماس تلفنی مهم بود، اما او نانی در خانه نداشت، پس نوزاد را در خانه گذاشت و به برادر پنج ساله اش گفت: ” جیمی من دارم به فروشگاه می روم، و تا چند دقیقه برمیگردم.” هنگامی که او بیرون بود، تلفن زنگ خورد، و جیمی جوب داد. مرد گفت: “سلام، آیا مادرت آنجاست؟”

‘No,’ answered Jimmy. ‘Well, when she comes back, say to her, “Mr Baker telephoned“.’ ‘What?’ ‘Mr Baker. Write it down. B-A-K-E-R.’ ‘How do you make a B?’ ‘How do I make . . . ? Listen, little boy, is there anybody else with you? Any brothers or sisters?’

جیمی جواب داد: “نه.” (آقای بیکر گفت:)”خب، وقتی آمد، به او بگو،” آقای بیکر زنگ زد.” (جیمی گفت:)”چی؟” (آقای بیکر گفت:) “آقای بیکر. بنویس. ب-ی-ک-ر.” (جیمی پرسید:)”ب را چطور می نویسید؟” (آقای بیکر گفت:)”چطور مینویسم….؟ گوش کن، پسر کوچولو، آیا هیچ کس دیگری با تو نیست؟ برادر یا خواهری؟”

‘My brother Billy is here.’ ‘Good, I want to talk to him, please.’ ‘All right.’ Jimmy took the telephone to the baby’s bed and gave it to Billy. When their mother came back, she asked, ‘Did anyone telephone?’ ‘Yes,’ said Jimmy, ‘a man. But he only wanted to talk to Billy.’

(جیمی گفت:) “برادرم بیلی اینجاست.” (آقای بیکر گفت:) “خوبه، می خواهم با او صحبت کنم، لطفا.” (جیمی گفت:) “باشه.” جیمی تلفن را به تخت نوزاد برد و آن را به بیلی داد. وقتی مادرشان برگشت، پرسید: “آیا کسی تلفن کرد؟” جیمی گفت:”بله، یک مرد. اما او فقط می خواست تا با بیلی حرف بزند.”
