About an hour later, when the telephone rang, Mrs. Bixby was across the room so fast she had the receiver off the hook before the first ring had finished.

大约一小时后，当电话铃一响，比克斯比夫人就快速的穿过房间在第一声响铃停止之前就拿起了听筒。

When the phone does ring-once a week-i'm thrilled, as I never was when the phone rang in my overcrowded office in 19 Rockefeller Center.

当电话真的响起时——每星期一次——我非常激动，在洛克菲勒中心我那过度拥挤的办公室里听到电话响起时我从未有过这种感觉。
