'The play may begin at any moment,' I said. 'It may have begun already,' Susan answered. I hurried to the ticket office. 'May I have two tickets please?' I asked. 'I'm sorry, we've sold out,' the girl said. 'What a pity!' Susan exclaimed. Just then, a man hurried to the ticket office. 'Can I return these two tickets?' he asked. 'Certainly,' the girl said. I went back to the ticket office at once. 'Could I have those two tickets please?' I asked. 'Certainly,' the girl said, 'but they're for next Wednesday's performance. Do you still want them?' 'I might as well have them,' I said sadly.

参考译文
“剧马上就要开演了,”我说。 “也许已经开演了呢,”苏珊回答说。 我匆匆赶到售票处,问:“我可以买两张票吗?” “对不起,票已售完。”那位姑娘说。 “真可惜!”苏珊大声说。 正在这时,一个男子匆匆奔向售票处。 “我可以退掉这两张票吗?”他问。 “当然可以,”那姑娘说。 我马上又回到售票处。 “我可以买那两张票吗?”我问。 “当然可以,不过这两张票是下星期三的,您是否还要呢?” “我还是买下的好,”我垂头丧气地说。
