  Before the conclusion of the concert, Marianne slipped to the Concession Stand for an ice cream cone. When she was there she overheard two men conferring together about their lack of confidence in arresting someone at the end of the performance. Marianne concentrated more to see if she could understand their words. It was none of her concern, of course, but this type of conduct was typical for Marianne.

  The name of the person that was conferred upon was too much for her to bear, however, and she bad to confess to herself that this was something she really shouldn't know. As she walked back to her chair she was condemning herself already for being so curious.

  Condemnation never worked with Marianne, unfortunately, and she suddenly had the conception to warn the individual. She could not condone his arrest; he was too nice of a friend and a good neighbor.

  She stood again and, planning to speak condolences for the death of the son this man had recently lost, she stepped across the concrete stairway that separated her from the man who would soon be arrested.

  This walkway was not conducive to Marianne' s shoes, however, and she tripped and fell. She tried to grab a hand to stop her, but she only succeeded in pulling a cup of coffee with too much condensed milk across her new dress. And then she passed out.

  When Marianne awoke she had no concept of where she was. Eventually she rose to see that everyone was gone and only one kind gentleman was left to help her. She frowned when she realized that her effort to held that man had failed. He had been arrested for sure!

  讀故事單詞雅思詞匯-過于好奇

  音樂會結束之前，瑪麗安溜到商攤去買蛋卷冰激凌。在那兒，她無意中聽到兩個男人在談話，他們要在演出結束前逮捕某個人，但他們對完成此事沒有信心。瑪麗安更加集中注意力，看能不能聽懂他們所講的話。當然這件事與她沒關系，但瑪麗安經常會有偷聽這種行為。

  然而，瑪麗安實在難以忍受他們在交談中提到的那個人的名字，她得向自己承認，她真不該知道這件事。她一邊走回座位，一邊已經在譴責自己不該如此好奇。

  不幸的是，自我譴責對瑪麗安來說從來就不管用，她突然動了要給那個人報警的念頭。她無法容忍他被捕這件事，因為他是一個那么好的朋友，而且還是位好鄰居。

  她再次站起來，準備對這個人剛剛痛失愛子表示慰問。她越過把她和那個不久就會被逮捕的男人隔開的混凝土樓梯，但這種走道不利于瑪麗安的鞋子，她絆了一下，跌倒了。她試圖抓住一只手不讓自己跌倒，結果只碰到一杯加了太多濃縮牛奶的咖啡，把它全潑在她的新裙子上，然后她就失去了知覺。

  瑪麗安醒來時，她對自己身在何處一點兒概念也沒有。最后，她站了起來，結果發現大家都走了，只有一個好心的先生留下來幫她。意識到幫助那個男人的努力已經落空時，她皺起了眉頭。他肯定已經被抓住了!
