621　We're waiting for you to leave 我们是在等你们走

Residents of a local nursing home loved our karate school's demonstration. We could tell because they gave us a big hand at the end. After the applause died down, everyone remained seated, so we showed off a few more moves. When our encore ended and again no one budged, we launched into our second encore. “I didn't expect karate to be so popular here,” I whispered to one resident. “It's not,” she said with a kindly smile. “We're waiting for you to leave so we can get on with our bingo game.”

我们附近一家老人护理中心的老人们喜爱我们空手道学校的表演。从他们在我们表演结束的时候的热烈掌声，我们就可以听出来。掌声停下来之后，人们都在原地坐着，所以我们又练了几套。在加演的节目结束之后，人们还没有要离开的意思。我们只好又演第二套加演节目。我小声地对我旁边的老人说：“没想到你们这么喜欢空手道。”她面带善良的笑容回答说：“我们不喜欢。我们是在等你们走，然后可以玩宾戈游戏。”
