380　Everything is expensive here 这里什么都贵

Waking up in the recovery room after surgery, I discovered my throat was dry and sore from the oxygen tube they had inserted. One of the nurses asked if I would like some ice chips to help alleviate the problem. “You know what,” I said to her, “I'll give you ten dollars if you bring me a soft drink.” “Ten dollars?” she said. “Sir, this is a hospital. A cup of Coke here costs a hundred dollars.”

手术以后在恢复室里苏醒过来，我发现自己的嗓子因为插了氧气管而又干又酸。一位护士问我要不要含一些碎冰块来缓解一下。我对她说：“你如果给我拿一杯软饮料来，我给你十块钱。”她说：“十块钱？先生，这里是医院。一杯可口可乐在这里卖一百美金。”
