125 Partying with Foreigners

Partying is fun.But have you ever been invited to a party by a foreigner? What should you wear? Should
you bring anything? If so,what? Don't worry. Today we are going to give you some tips about partying with
foreigners.
First, you should ask if it is a formal or casual party. Then you will know what to wear. It's as simple
as that. At a casual party, it is customary to bring a bottle of wine or some other refreshment. It is not
considered polite to bring someone along with you unless you first ask your host. At more formal parties
like birthdays, a small gift will be sufficient. Giving money would cause some embarrassment. Finally, never
overstay your welcome. When it's getting late, it's time to thank your host for a wonderful evening and say
good night.

123 Early to Bed, Early to Rise

"Early to bed, early to rise," so goes an old saying. But how many of us are in the habit of doing that?
Not many, I bet. Most of us need an alarm clock to wake us up. But even that doesn't always work. It's too
easy to punch the off button and fall asleep again.
The Lazybones Alarm Clock may be the solution to our problem. It's specially designed so that it cannot
be switched off with a simple push of a button. The clock has several "protective shells." You must open
these shells one by one before you can turn off the alarm. If you don't,it'll keep on saying,"Good morning...
good morning..." So if any of you lazybones need a morning call that really gets you out of bed, this clock
might be just the thing for you.

122 Candy Helps?

Candy is trying to get her boyfriend Benny to quit smoking.
(C=Candy; B=Benny)
C: Benny, your breath smells like an ashtray. You've got to stop smoking!
B: I know. I want to, but it isn't easy.
C: Why don't you chew gum instead?
B: I can't. I've got false teeth. Remember?
C: Oh yeah. In that case, how about eating candies?
B: If they're as sweet as you, no problem.
C: Cut it out, will you? I'm serious.
B: Just kidding. Do I get a kiss if I really quit?
C: I don't like the taste of ashtrays. Maybe tomorrow if you quit right now.

121 Kick the Habit

There are millions of people all over the world who smoke. Most of these smokers have tried to quit
smoking at least once in their lives, but in vain. Make no mistake; smoking is addictive. And once you are
addicted, it's very difficult to stop smoking. Many people have tried many different ways to kick the habit.
None of them is easy.
Take a tip from me. I smoked for twenty-five years. Then one day, I decided to quit cold turkey after
trying everything else. It worked. That was two years ago and I haven's smoked a single cigarette since then.
Good luck!

瞧瞧我多渴望驾驶 That's how much I want it.
鲍伯你就带她去吧 Bob, take her driving already.
行 好吧 走 All right, fine.Let's go.

120 It's Too Late

A mother and her child are walking along the street.
(C=child; M=mother; W=waiter in a restaurant)

C: Mom, I need to go to the washroom.
M: Uh-oh! Can't you wait?
C: I can't stand it anymore.
M: OK, let's go into this restaurant. Excuse me, but can my son use your toilet?
W: Of course not. This is a restaurant, not a public toilet.
M: You're so mean.
W: Oh, OK. But it'll cost you US$5.
M: What? That's highway robbery.
C: Mom, never mind. It's too late.
W: Hey, come back here and mop the floor.

119 Where's the toilet?

You're walking along the street. You need to go to the washroom desss...perately. What do you do? If you can't control yourself, you could be embarrassed to no end.
Don't worry. Someone in San Francisco has invented a self-cleaning public toilet. The toilet cleans itself. The seat goes back into the wall where it is washed and blow-dried. Even the floors are washed automatically. You must be quick,though. You've only got 20 minutes to "do your business." Then, there's a 2-minute warning before the door opens. When it does, you'd better be ready or your face will be red!
