Please Wait
請等待
He called the cable TV company. "My screen goes black," he said. "Every five minutes my screen goes black." "Sir, does it go completely black?" the representative asked. "No," he said. "Big white letters say Please Wait." "Oh, that's good," she said. "If you don't see Please Wait, that's super bad." He was glad to hear that. "I'm glad to hear it's not super bad," he said. "So, does that mean someone can fix it soon?" "No," she said, "the soonest a technician can come to your home is next Tuesday. If your screen was completely black, a technician could come to your home tomorrow." He thought about that. "You know, I'm watching my TV right now. It just went completely black. It does not say Please Wait. It's completely black." She was silent for a moment. "A technician can come out tomorrow, sir. Will you be home?" she asked.
他給有線電視公司打電話。他說:“電視屏幕變黑了,每五分鐘我的電視就變黑一次。”服務人員問道:“先生,請問是完全黑屏嗎?”他說:“沒有,上面的白字顯示說請等待。”她說:“啊,那太好了。如果你沒有看見“請等待”字樣的話,那就非常糟糕了。”他很高興聽到。他說:“這并不是十分糟糕,這太好了。那么,是不是馬上就會有人來修呢?”她說:“不是,檢修人員最快也要下周二。如果你的屏幕黑屏的話,檢修人員會在明天前往。”他想了想。說到:“你知道,我正在看電視。突然黑屏了。并沒有提示請等待。完全黑了。”她沉沒了片刻。她問道:“檢修人員明天到達,先生,明天您在家嗎?”
