Promotion

Our son, Chris, is a premed student at Georgia Southern ，

University in Statesboro. He is fortunate to have a job in the research lab,

where they are studying Lyme disease.

Recently he called home and told us ，

that he had received a promotion. "Great!" I said. "

You can always use more money."

There was a slight pause before Chris responded, "

Well, I didn't exactly get more money.

But they did give me more keys."

提升

我们的儿子克里斯是位于斯泰兹波罗的南佐治亚医科大学的预科生。

他很幸运地在研究淋巴疾病的科研室找到了一份工作。

最近，他给家里打电话，

告诉我们他得到了提升。

“太好了，”我说！“

你可以多花一些钱了。”

克里斯停顿了一会儿，才回答说：“嗯，

准确地说我倒没有多拿钱。

但是他们确实多给了我几把钥匙。”
