今天早晨我丈夫走进餐厅时，把一些硬币掉在地上了。
When my husband was going into the dining room this morning, he dropped some coins on the floor.
到处都是硬币。
There were coins everywhere.
我们找了找，但没能把它们全找到。
We looked for them, but we could not find them all.
我们吃早饭的时候，我们的小儿子汤米在地板上发现了两枚小硬币。
While we were having breakfast, our little boy, Tommy, found two small coins on the floor.
他把两枚都放进嘴里了。
He put them both into his mouth.
我们俩都试图把硬币取出来，但已经太晚了。
We both tried to get the coins, but it was too late.
汤米已经把它们吞下去了！
Tommy had already swallowed them!
那天上午晚些时候，我正在做家务时，丈夫从办公室给我打了电话。
Late that morning, when I was doing the housework, my husband phoned me from the office.
"汤米怎么样？"他问道。
'How's Tommy?' he asked.
"我不知道，"我回答说，"汤米今天早上已经上了三次厕所，但我还没得到任何零钱呢！"
'I don't know,' I answered, 'Tommy's been to the toilet three times this morning, but I haven't had any change yet!'
