1、The poor husband
"You can't imagine how difficult it is for me to deal with my wife," the man complained to his friend. "She asks me a question, then answers it herself, and after that she explained to me for half an hour why my answer is wrong.
可怜的丈夫
“你根本无法想象和我妻子打交道是多么的难，”一个男人对他的朋友诉苦说，“她问我一个问题，然后自己回答了，过后又花半个小时跟我解释为什么我的答案是错的。”
Yesterday I got a phone call from my friend, who owns a small company in the south suburb of this city. He needs someone who can speak English to work as a tour guide for three foreigners for two days. He wants me to have a try. Personally, I think this is a good chance for me to practice my spoken English. However, if I take the job, I will not be able to attend your class this Wednesday, so I need your permission.
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has opened cross-party talks on setting up a federal agency of investigation after the Mumbai attacks. He said they were to discuss a new legal framework following the gun and bomb attacks which caused at least 172 deaths in the commercial capital.
Questions have been asked about India's failure to pre-empt the attacks, and the time taken to eliminate the gunmen. India's home minister has resigned, saying he took "moral responsibility".
Shivraj Patil's resignation was accepted by the prime minister but an offer to resign from the national security adviser, MK Narayanan, was turned down.
