After placing quite a number of everyday objects on a table he asked various members of the class to give him the ruler, the book, the penand so on. The class went very smoothly, and the students seemed interested and serious about the work that they were engaged in until my friend turned to an Italian and said, “Give me the keys.” The man looked surprised and somewhat at a loss (有点手足无措). Z.xxk
Seeing this, my friend thought thatthe student hadn’t heard him clearly, so he repeated, “Give me the keys.” The Italian shrugged (耸肩) his shoulders. Then, he threw his arms around the teacher’s neck and kissed him on both cheeks.In China, there are so many local dialects although the government encourage the whole nation to speak putonghua, which regarded as “standard” Chinese.
