We know what a person thinks not when he tells us what he thinks， but by his actions.
Theyre Busy
One day， the phone rang， and a little boy answered.
“May I speak to your parents？”
“Theyre busy.”
“Oh. Is anybody else there？”
“The police.”
“Can I speak to them？”
“Theyre busy.”
我们从一个人的行动而不是他的言论中了解他的思想。
他们很忙
电话铃响了，小男孩接了电话。
“请你父母听电话好吗？”
“他们很忙。”
“噢，那家里还有其他人吗？”
“还有警察。”
“我可以和他们说话吗？”
“他们很忙。”
“Oh. Is anybody else there？”
“The firemenfiremen n.消防员.”
“Can I speak to them？”
“Theyre busy.”
“So let me get this straightstraight adj.直的， 诚实的， 正直的， 率直的， 整齐的 — your parents， the police， and the firemen are there， but theyre all busy？ What are they doing？”
“Looking for me.”
“那还有其他人吗？”
“消防员。”
“我可以和他们说话吗？”
“他们很忙”
“恕我直言——你的父母、警察、消防员都在一起，但他们都很忙？他们在忙什么？”
“在找我”
