Reader's Digest 4月号の記事 'Life in these United States' からの抜粋です。
As I pulled into the gas station, I noticed a woman trying to push her car toward the pump. Having always considered myself a Good Samaritan, I parked and joined her in pushing her car.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"I'm giving you a hand," I said.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm stretching before my run."
サザエさんの漫画に出てきそうなオッチョコチョイですね。
