A few years ago I was having a drink with friends, including one who was dating a guy she had met online. Eventually she took me aside and asked me a question. 几年前，我与几个朋友相聚小酌。其中一个朋友当时正在与一个网上认识的男人约会。后来她把我叫到一旁，问了我一个问题。 'How tall are you?' she said. 她说：你多高？ 'I am exactly 6-feet tall,' I replied. 我回答说：正好六英尺（合1.83米）。 'How tall would you say my boyfriend is?' 她问：你觉得我男朋友有多高？ I eyeballed the man standing a few feet away. '5-8. Maybe 5-9,' I replied. 我仔细打量了一下站在几英尺外的那个男人，回答说：五英尺八英寸，要不就五英尺九英寸。 She frowned. 'He says that he's 6-feet tall.' 她皱了皱眉说：他说他六英尺。 'Did he also tell you that he has hair?' 我问道：他有没有说是包括头发的高度？ |
