Shirley: What’s happening here?
Benjamin: Our lock was broken, honey. Somebody broke into our house.
Shirley: Oh, that was me.
Benjamin: You? What? What the hell are you talking about?
Shirley: I left my keys inside so I called the superintendent to break the lock.
Policeman: Hey, what are you guys doing here?
Shirley: Sorry, sir. There’s been a mistake.
Benjamin: But you can’t leave with an opening door!
Shirley: I got to buy a new lock! Plus, the superprintendent won’t let any stranger in…
Benjamin: Oh, you are always a trouble maker.
Policeman: It seems that there is not my job here. This seems that it’s been a false alarm.
Benjamin: Er…look, here, sir, I am terribly sorry.
Policeman: Well, don’t call the police unless there is a real case. I hope this won’t happen again.
Shirley: Oh, “ I hope this won’t happen again” I hate hearing this.
Policeman: Is there anything wrong, Ma’am?
Shirley: The superintendent said the same thing to me today a thousand times!

经典背诵 Recitation
Shirley: I always forget to take my keys, and I get myself locked out. Then I would just call the superintendent to break the lock for me. He is not so willing to do that. It’s because he thinks that I should be more careful. Maybe, he is right.
