What is the writer's carpet made of?作者的“地毯”(这里可能指作者的办公环境或工作场所)是由什么材料制成的呢?
We have just moved into a new house and I have been working hard all morning.我们刚搬进了一栋新房子,我一整个早上都在努力工作。
I have been trying to get my new room in order.我一直在努力把我的新房间整理得井井有条。
This has not been easy because I own over a thousand books.这并不容易,因为我有超过一千本书。
To make matters worse, the room is rather small, so I have temporarily put my books on the floor.更糟糕的是……这个房间相当小。所以我暂时把我的书放在了地板上。
At the moment, they cover every inch of floor space and I actually have to walk on them to get in or out of the room.目前,它们已经覆盖了每一寸的地面空间。实际上,我必须踩在这些东西上才能进入或离开房间。
A short while ago, my sister helped me to carry one of my old bookcases up the stairs.不久前,我的姐姐帮我把其中一个旧书柜搬上了楼梯。
She went into my room and got a big surprise when she saw all those books on the floor.她走进我的房间,看到地板上堆满了书,顿时感到非常惊讶。
'This is the prettiest carpet I have ever seen,' she said.“这是我见过最漂亮的地毯了,”她说。
She gazed at it for some time then added,她凝视着它一会儿,然后补充道:
'You don't need bookcases at all.“你根本不需要书架。
You can sit here in your spare time and read the carpet!'你可以在空闲时间坐在这里,直接在地毯上阅读!”
