   有一天早上,我到公司的办公室去复印一叠文件,复印完毕后,正要步出办公室的时候,忽然想起来最后那一张原件还在复印机内尚未取出,我转身回去取那张文件时,口中念念有词地说:“I am losing my mind。”


  不料办公室内的三位女秘书都笑了起来。因为一起工作多年了,我知道她们绝对不是在嘲笑我。我马上向她们请教是什么地方出了毛病。其中一位告诉我说:“You are not losing your mind。Losing your mind means being crazy(丧失理智,发疯)。”
  这时我才明白,我自以为是的“创造欲”又出洋相了,原来我是想说:“我的记忆力越来越差了。”却变成了:“我要发疯了!”
