580　My wife is getting pregnant this weekend 我的妻子准备这个周末怀孕

Although I knew our commanding officer hated doling out weekend passes, I thought I had a good reason. “My wife is pregnant and I want to be with her,” I told the CO. Much to my surprise, he said, albeit curtly, “Permission granted.” Inspired by my success, a fellow soldier also requested a weekend pass. His wife wasn't pregnant. So when the CO asked why he should grant him permission, my friend responded, “My wife is getting pregnant this weekend and I want to be with her.”

尽管我知道我们的司令官不喜欢发放周末通行证，但是我认为我的理由很充足。我告诉司令官：“我妻子怀孕了，我想和她在一起。”出乎我的预料，他痛快地说：“准假。”受到我的成功的鼓舞，我的同伴也去申请周末通行证。他的妻子并没有怀孕。当司令官问他为什么要请假的时候，他说：“我的妻子准备这个周末怀孕，我想和她在一起。”
