你是怎样来的

　　One winter morning, an employee explained why he had shown up for work 45 minutes late. "It was so slippery out that for every step I took ahead, I slipped back two."

　　一个冬天的早晨，一名雇员解释他为什么上班迟到了45分钟。“外面太滑了，我每向前走一步，就向后滑两步。”

　　The boss eyed him suspiciously. "Oh, yeah? Then how did you ever get here?"

　　老板怀疑地看着他。“噢，是吗？那你是怎样到这里来的？”

　　"I finally gave up," he said, "and started for home."

　　他回答说：“最后我放弃了，然后朝家里走。”
