No Food, No Water
不吃不喝
Bev was a real estate agent in New York City. She usually left home about 10 a.m. She never drank or ate anything until she returned home. "You need energy. Eat some lunch," her husband said. "I can't eat anything after I leave the house. I don't carry a toothbrush or toothpaste," she said. "No problem. Put them into your purse," he said. "That's extra weight," she said. "Every day I walk 30 blocks. I climb 20 flights of stairs. My purse is so heavy. Besides, it's full. I don't have room in my purse. Look." He looked into her purse. It was full. He lifted it. It was heavy. "Well, you should at least drink lots of water. I'm sure all that walking makes you thirsty," he said. "I get thirsty, but I don't dare drink," she said. "It's too hard to find a clean place to pee!"
贝夫是纽约城的一名房地产经纪人。她通常10点才会离开家。在她回家之前，她不吃也不喝。她的丈夫对她说：“你需要能量。吃午餐。”她说：“出门以后我不能吃东西。因为我不能带牙刷或牙膏。”他说：“那没事，把她装进你的手提袋里。”她说：“那会额外增加分量。我每天走30个街区。20层楼梯。我的手提包太重了。还有，东西太多了。看，我的包里没地方放了。”他看了看她的包。包里装满了东西。他提了提。非常重。他说：“那你至少要多喝水。走路会让你感到饥渴。”她说：“我会感到口渴，但是我不敢喝。找个干净地方解手都非常困难！”
