\"Arthur practically disappeared from the scene for a couple of years as he was concentrating on his second novel. Yesterday he finally agreed to attend a party next week as he has completed the draft and is now over the hump.\"
这个人说:“阿瑟过去两年一直集中力量在写他的第二本小说,所以你根本见不到他的人。昨天,他终于答应参加下星期举行的一个聚会,因为他已经完成了这部小说的初稿,最忙、最艰苦的时期已经过去了。”
\"My friend was so sick that we were afraid he\'d never leave the hospital alive. But the doctors say he\'s over the hump now, getting stronger every day, and he can go home next week.\"
