第43章 Wouldn’t You Know

I accompanied①my eight-month-pregnant②wife to her monthly checkup. We boarded the hospital’s elevator to go to the appropriate③floor. The only other passenger was an elderly man who studied intently④and then said, “Boy.”

Without another word, he got off at his floor. I was about to tell my wife how strange I thought he was acting when suddenly I realized he was wearing a T-shirt sporting the “Guess?”logo⑤.

① accompanyv. 伴随;陪伴

② pregnantadj. 怀孕的

③ appropriateadj. 适当的

④ intentlyadv. 心地

⑤ logon. 标语

你不要知道吗

我陪伴怀孕八个月的妻子去月查。我们上了医院的电梯去某个楼层。唯一的另外乘客是一位上了年纪的男子。他专注地看着我妻子,然后说:“男孩。”

直到他到了自己的楼层,他再没说话。我刚要告诉我妻子那个男子是多么奇怪,这时我突然意识到他穿着一件T恤运动衫,上面写着“猜猜看?”标语。
