6.Mark Twain's Tie
马克·吐温的领带
Returning from a visit with Harriet Beecher Stowe one day, Mark Twain was reprimanded by his wife for having forgotten to wear a necktie.
一天,马克·吐温从斯托夫人那里回来,妻子因为他忘记带领带出门而责备他。
Some time later a messenger arrived at Mrs. Stowe's door with a small package.Inside was a black necktie and a brief note: "Here is a necktie. Take it out and look at it. I think I stayed half an hour this morning without this necktie. At the end of that time, will you kindly return it, as it the only one I have. Mark Twain."
不久,一个送信的人来到了斯托夫人家门口,还带来了一个小包裹,里面装着黑色的领带和一张便条,“这是我的领带,请您拿出来看一看。我想今天早上我在您家停留厂半小时,没有带领带。时间到了,能请您归领带吗,囚为我仅此一条。马克·叶温。”
