898　That would sound more like this 那更像这个声音

Even though telemarketers are slightly less beloved than dentists and tax auditors, that's the job I took during my summer vacation.

Thinking the man may have hung up, I asked, “Are you still there?” “Yeah, still here,” said the man. “Sorry, I heard a click and I thought you'd been disconnected.” “No,” the man said, “that would sound more like this.” He slammed down the phone.

尽管电话推销员比牙医和税务审计员还要不讨人喜欢，这却是我暑假的工作。在一通推销电话的中途，我听到线路那一头“咯答”一声，以为是对方把电话挂断了，就问：“你还在那里吗？”那个人说：“对，我还在。”“对不起，我听到‘咯答’一声，以为是你把电话挂断了。”那个人说：“不。挂断电话那更像这个声音。”说完“砰”的一下把电话听筒摔了下去。
