Round the Bend

发疯了

Beth is in a cafe, waiting for Alex to finishhis Christmas shopping. Eventually he arrives。

贝丝在咖啡屋里等待去采购圣诞商品的阿力。终于，阿力来了。

Beth: Did you get everything?

Alex: Hardly. I haven’t even got half my presents。

Beth: I told you it’d be busy。

Alex: Ok, clever clogs!

Beth: People go completely round the bend, don’t they? You’d thinkthe shops were going to close for a whole month。

Alex: To be honest, I wish they would。

贝丝：要买的都买了吗?

阿力：没有啊，我连一半的礼物都没买到。

贝丝：我就说现在购物会很挤嘛。

阿力：好吧，你总是对的。

贝丝：人们完全疯了，难道不是吗?你以为商店整个月都要关门吧。

阿力：说实话，我真希望如此。
