Beat about the Bush(旁敲側(cè)擊、兜圈子)
Two brothers, Herbert and James, lived with their mother and a cat named Edgar. James was particularly(尤其,特別) attached to(與。。。關(guān)系親密) the cat and when he had to leave town for several days, he left Herbert meticulous(細(xì)致的) instructions(說明) about the pet’s care(對。。。的照料). At the end of his first day away, James telephoned his brother.
"How is Edgar?" he asked.
"Edgar is dead," Herbert answered.
There was a pause(停頓,沉默). Then James said: "Herbert, you’re insensitive(遲鈍的,不敏感的). You know how close I was to Edgar. You should have broken the news to me slowly(把消息分成幾段慢慢地告訴我). When I asked about Edgar tonight, you should have said ’Edgar’s on the roof(屋頂), but I’ve called the fire department(消防隊) to get him down.
"And tomorrow when I called, you could have said ’the firemen were having trouble getting Edgar down, but you were hopeful(希望的,充滿希望的) they would succeed.’Then when I called the third time, you could have told me that ’the firemen had done their best, but unfortunately(不幸地) Edgar had fallen off the roof(從屋頂?shù)袅讼聛? and was at the veterinarian’s(獸醫(yī)診所).’ Then when I called the last time, you could have said that although everything possible had been done for Edgar, he had died.’ That’s the way a sensitive(敏感的) man would have told me about Edgar. And, oh, before I forget," James added, "How is mother?"
"Uh," Herbert said, pausing for a moment, "She is on the roof."
