Little Susan was mother's helper (крошка Сьюзан была маминой помощницей). She helped to set the table (она помогала накрывать на стол) when company was due for dinner (должны были обедать). Presently everything was on (вскоре все было на /столе/), the guest came in (вошел гость), and everyone sat down (и все сели /to sit-sat-sat/). Then mother noticed (заметила) something was missing (чего-то недостает).

"Susan," she said (сказала), "You didn't put a knife and fork (ты не положила нож и вилку) at Mr. Smith's place (на место мистера Смита)."

"I thought he wouldn't need them (я подумала, они не будут ему нужны)," explained (объяснила) Susan. "Daddy (папа) says he always eats like a horse! (он всегда ест, как лошадь)"

"It's unbelievable (это невероятно)," one woman said. "I can never figure out where he goes at night (я никогда не могу разгадать, куда он ходит ночью, вечером)."

"I know exactly what you mean (я в точности знаю, что ты имеешь в виду)," said the other woman. "One second he's in the house (в одно мгновенье он дома), and the next he's gone without a trace (а в следующее он исчез без следа)."

"Well," says a woman eavesdropping nearby (подслушивающая рядом). "I always know where my husband is (я всегда знаю, где мой муж)."

"How do you manage that? (как вам это удается)" the other two women ask (спрашивают).

"Easy (легко)," she replies (отвечает). "I'm a widow (я вдова)."

But my son has his own color TV, phone, computer and CD player (но у моего сына есть его собственный цветной телевизор, телефон, компьютер, и СD плеер)."

"So what do you do? (и что же ты делаешь)" asked his friend (спросил его друг).
