Ｔｈｅｙ ａｒｅ ｄｉｒｅｃｔｌｙ ｆｒｏｍ Ａｍｅｒｉｃａ它们是从美国直接带来的

何　凡

Not long after an old Chinese woman came back to China from her visit to her daughter in the United States, she went to a bank to deposit the US dollars her daughter gave her. At the bank counter, the clerk checked each note carefully to see if the money was real.

It made the old lady out of patience. At last she could not hold any more, uttering, “Trust me, Sir, and trust the money. They are real US dollars. They are directly from America.”

一位中国老妇人在美国看望女儿回来后不久，到一家银行存女儿给她的美元。银行柜台的职员认真检查了每一张钞票，看是否有假钞。

这种做法让老妇人很不耐烦，最后她实在忍耐不住了，说：“相信我，先生，也请你相信这些钞票。这都是真正的美元，它们是从美国直接带来的。”
