声音简介

Endearing terms
Tom was invited to his friend's home for dinner. Jack, the host, made every request to his wife by endearing terms, calling her Honey, My Love, Darling, Sweetheart, etc. Tom looked at Jack and remarked, "That is really nice, that after all these years that you have been married, and you keep calling your wife those pet names." Jack hung his head and whispered," To tell the truth, I forgot her name three years ago."
亲密的称呼
Tom应邀来到他的朋友Jack家吃晚餐。在朋友家，Tom发现，不管问他老婆什么问题，Jack总要在每句话的前面加上一些亲密的称呼，象蜜糖，我的爱人，亲爱的，甜心等等。Tom对Jack说，“你们夫妻俩真够亲密的，结婚这么多年了，你还叫她叫得那么亲密。”Jack低下头，小声地对Tom说，“老实跟你说吧，三年前我忘记老婆的真名是什么了。”
