TRISH: Well, I’m glad you’re finally back. I was wondering what happened.
SARAH: I feel kind of stupid.
TRISH: Why?
SARAH: We got lost coming back. I guess I don’t really know this town yet.
TRISH: You got lost. You’re kidding!
SARAH: No. We took a wrong turn somewhere.
And Joseph doesn’t know the town at all. So I started giving him directions.
But I didn’t really know where we were. So we got seriously lost.
TRISH: You could have called.
SARAH: I know I could have. But finally we asked someone where we were.
TRISH: You’ve been gone for two hours. How could you get lost for so long?
SARAH: Guess where we ended up.
TRISH: I don’t know. Where?
SARAH: When we finally decided to ask someone, they told us we were in Grangerfield.
TRISH: Grangerfield! You were in Grangerfield?
That’s a completely different town! How could you drive to a completely different town?
SARAH: I don’t know.
The person we asked had to give us directions to the highway to get back here.
TRISH: Grangerfield is like a dozen miles away from here.
SARAH: I know it is. I don’t know how it happened.
TRISH: Hmm, maybe I do.
SARAH: What?
TRISH: Maybe I have an idea how it happened.
SARAH: How?
TRISH: You were too busy looking at Joseph, and you weren’t paying attention to the road.
SARAH: Oh, that’s what you think, huh?
TRISH: Yes, that’s what I think.
Maybe the next time you go out with him to buy groceries, you’ll get lost for even longer.
Maybe six hours or so.
SARAH: You know what, Trish?
TRISH: What?
SARAH: I hope so. I really hope so.
TRISH: Hah, hah! See? I guessed right. You weren’t watching the road at all.
SARAH: No, I wasn’t. It’s kind of hard to watch the road when Joseph is behind the wheel.
崔喜：很高興你終于回來了。我還在想發(fā)生了什么事。
莎拉：我覺得我好笨。
崔喜：為什么?
莎拉：我們回來時迷路了，我對這個城鎮(zhèn)還不太熟悉。
崔喜：你迷路了，開玩笑吧!
莎拉：沒有。我們在某個地方轉(zhuǎn)錯方向。
約瑟夫?qū)@個城鎮(zhèn)一點兒都不熟悉，所以我開始指路。
但是我實在不知道我們在哪兒，所以當(dāng)真就迷路了。
崔喜：你可以打電話啊。
莎拉：我知道，但是最后我們終于問到人了。
崔喜：你們出去兩小時了，怎么會迷路這么久?
莎拉：你猜我們到哪里了。
崔喜：不知道，哪里?
莎拉：當(dāng)我們終于決定問人時，他們說我們在農(nóng)場村。
崔喜：農(nóng)場村!你們到了農(nóng)場村?
那是完全不同的城鎮(zhèn)!你們怎么會開到完全不同的城鎮(zhèn)?
莎拉：不知道。
我們問的那個人要我們走高速公路回到這里來。
崔喜：農(nóng)場村離這里有十幾哩。
莎拉：我知道。我不曉得這是怎么發(fā)生的。
崔喜：也許我知道。
莎拉：什么?
崔喜：也許我知道這是怎么發(fā)生的。
莎拉：怎么發(fā)生的?
崔喜：你忙著看約瑟夫，你沒專心看路。
莎拉：你是那么想嗎?
崔喜：是的，我是那么想。
也許下次你和他去雜貨店買東西會迷路更久
也許要六個小時。
莎拉：你知道嗎，崔喜?
崔喜：什么?
莎拉：我希望如此，我真的希望如此。
崔喜：哈哈!看吧?我猜得沒錯，你根本沒看路。
莎拉：我沒看路。當(dāng)約瑟夫開車時，真的很難去看路。
