44. Arriving at Work 到达工作地点

            A: Morning, Joe. You're late, aren't you?
            B: Sure I'm late. Bob walked off with my raincoat, and I missed my
            bus, and I had to stand in the rain for twenty minutes waiting for
            the next one.
            A: Well, don't bite my head off. I was just trying to be nice. It
            isn't my fault if you got up on the wrong side of the bed.
            B: Look, Frances, I'm sorry, but today isn't my day. I've got three
            day's
            Work on my desk and a dozen letters to get out by tomorrow.
            A: I'm not criticizing you, Joe. I'll be good. I won't speak to you
            until the day after tomorrow.
            B: Okay, that's fine with me.

            Bite my head off-speak angrily (冲着我发脾气)
            Got up on the wrong side of the bed-began the day in a bad mood
            (一澡起来情绪不好)

            A：早安，乔。你迟到了，是吗？
            B：我是迟到了。鲍勃顺手牵羊拿走了我的雨衣，我没赶上我那班公共汽车，不得不在雨里站了二十分钟等下一班车。
            A：好吧，别恼火。我没有责怪你的意思。如果你一早起来情绪不好，那不是我的过错。
            B：听着，弗兰西斯，我很抱歉，不过今天我什么事都不顺心。我的办公桌上已经堆积了三天的工作，还有十几封信明天要发出。
            A：乔，我不是在批评你。我会对你很友好的。后天之前我将不同你说话。
            B：啊，那对我来说太好了。
