On my way to a picnic, I stopped at a fast-food place to order a quart of potato salad. “We don't sell it by the quart,” the clerk snapped. “Okay, then give me two pints, please,” I replied. She asked, “Do you want it in one container?”
在去野餐的路上,我到一家快餐店買(mǎi)一夸脫土豆色拉。售貨員厲聲說(shuō):“我們不按夸脫賣(mài)。”我說(shuō):“好吧,買(mǎi)兩品脫。”她問(wèn):“裝在一起嗎?”(注:一夸脫等于兩品脫)
