DON'T GET YOUR HOPES TOO HIGH

laurance--They'll never help us.You know that old saying,
"You can't get blood out of a turnip 1."
soony--I know,I know.But that's no reason not to ask them.
laurance--We asked them last year and what did they say?
soony--actually,they didn't say anything.
laurance--Yeah.They didn't say anything and they didn't do
anything.
soony--I think they might do something this year.I was
talking to Gail last week and I thought I detected
a more friendly attitude.
laurance--There you go with your optimism!Don't get your
hopes too high!
soony--I won't,but it doesn't hurt to expect the best.
Sometimes you get it!

2)Gail:人名。
3)detect:察觉。
