            A: Hello, Bob. Have you got² your work done for today?
            B: No, But maybe the teacher won't ask for it.
            A: No such³ luck⁴. The last time he forgot⁵ to collect our homework was⁶
            the day he came⁷ down with the flu⁸. He's in better
            shape now. He won't forget again.
            B: I know. That was a great week. I went out with Mary three nights
            running⁹.
            A: Who's Mary?
            B: You know, the dark-haired girl who sits in the front row.
            A: Oh, her. I've never met her.
            B: Sorry, friend. You won't if I have my way.

            译文：
            A：喂，鲍勃。今天的功课做完了吗？
            B：没有，也许老师不会收作业。
            A：没那么运气。上次他忘了收我们的家庭作业，是因为那天他患流感病倒了。现在他已痊愈，不会再忘了。
            B：我知道。上星期实在太忙了。连续三个晚上我和玛丽有约会。
            A：谁是玛丽？
            B：你知道，就是坐在前排的那个黑发姑娘。
            A：哦，她。我同她从没有接触。
            B：对不起，朋友。如果我按照自己的愿望行事，你当然见不到她
