I know how insensitive he can be. What has he done now? 不会吧，我知道他这个人常常无礼又无知，今天他怎么又做这种事了? L：He asked me how long it took me to learn English. 他问我学习英语多少年了 J：But, you were born and raised in California! 啊，你可是土生土长的加利福尼亚人呀 L：Yeah, but I get that sometimes.

He was puzzled for a minute, and then he got it. 我告诉他28年了。他显然知道我也才28岁因为上周我刚庆贺过我的生日。他一听愣了一下，随后就明白我什么意思了。 J：Are you sure he really got the message? 你确信他明白了? L：Yeah, I'm pretty sure since I then asked him how long it took him to learn English. 是的，当我问他学习英语多久的时候，我就确信他明白我的意思了 J：That's hilarious!
