Prezentare și exemple
There was a pretty nurse named Carol who broke her engagement to a doctor. She was explaining everything to a friend.
„Do you mean to say,” exclaimed Cindy, „that the bum asked you to give back the ring and all his presents?”
„Not only that,” said Carol, „he sent me a bill for 37 visits.”
The scene: Alexander Graham Bell’s laboratory. An exciting new discovery is about to take place.
In the next room sits Bell’s assistant, a man named Watson, hard at work on Bell’s new invention to transmit sound over wires.
As Mr. Watson toiled away in the room with the receiver, it suddenly rings — it must be Bell!
He picks it up and hears: „Good evening, sir. Are you paying too much for your long distance service?”
