An old friend from the US whom I was looking forward to staying with , telephoned from the airport to tell me that he had arrived . I was still at the office at that time , but I had got everything ready for his arrival . After letting him know where my house was，I told him that I had left the key under the door—mat（门垫）. As I was likely to be home rather late , I told him to go into the kitchen and help himself to food and drink .
Two hours later my friend telephone me from the house . At the moment , he said , he was listening to some of my records after having just had a truly wonderful meal. He had found a cooker and fried two eggs and had helped himself to some cold chicken from the ice box . Now , he said , he was drinking a glass of orange juice and he hoped I would remember him . When I asked him if he had reached the house without difficulty , he answered , “I was not able to find the key , but luckily the living-room windows just by the apple tree were left open and you know what I could do .”
I listened to all this in surprise .In front of my living-room there was no apple tree at all .

Answer 1

一位我一直期盼的纽约老朋友从机场打电话说他已经到了。当时我还在办公室，但我已经为他的到来准备好一切了。先告诉他我家的地点，然后我告诉他我把钥匙放在门垫下。因为我通常回家很晚，我告诉他到厨房给自己弄点吃的。
两个小时后我的朋友从家打来电话。这时，他说他刚刚吃了一顿不错的饭，现在正在听我的一些留言。他已经找到炉灶煎了两个蛋，还吃了些冰箱里的冷鸡。现在，他说，他在喝橙汁，并且希望我没把他忘掉。当我问他是否顺利到达我家时，他说“我找不到那钥匙，但很幸运的是客厅的窗户开着，而且旁边刚好有棵苹果树，你知道我怎么做喽。”
我听了十分吃惊——我家客厅前根本就没有什么苹果树！

我期待着与一个美国朋友碰面，他电话告诉我他已经到了。那时我还在办公，其实我已经为他的到来准备好了一切。我告诉了他我的住所，告诉了他钥匙放在门垫下。因为我到家可能会比较晚，我告诉他去厨房弄点吃喝的东西。
两个小时后我的朋友从我的住所给我打电话。他告诉我，在美餐一顿后他听了一些我的录音带。他在冰箱里找到了一些厨具并煎了两个鸡蛋。他正在喝果汁并希望我能知道他的到来。当我问他到家后有没有什么困难。他回答到，“我没有找到钥匙，幸运的是起居室的窗户是开的，他通过一颗苹果树爬进了起居室，下面的相信你知道我做什么了。”我听了之后觉得很奇怪，起居室前面并没有苹果树。
