　　李华和Larry正在超级市场买菜，同时还讨论着下周末去打网球的事情。
        　　LL: Hey, Li Hua, does the name "Laura Wilson" ring any bells for you?
        　　LH：Laura Wilson?不是那个上星期我们在网球场上碰到的那个金发女孩嘛?她为什么要为我打铃呀?她和打铃有什么关系?
        　　LL：Oh, no! If someone asks you if something "rings a bell," then he is
asking if you remember it. I just got a phone message from Laura Wilson and I
can't remember who she is.
        　　LH: Larry， 你年纪轻轻，怎么那么健忘!Laura Wilson上星期在网球场上还跟我们说她准备去当职业网球手。
        　　LL: Oh, now I remember who she is. Once you mentioned her plan to be a
professional tennis player, then her name rang a bell with me.
        　　LH: Larry, to ring a bell这个说法很有意思。你刚才问我，Laura的名字有没有ring a
bell，就是在问我记不记得Laura。那也就是说，要是我记得的话，那我脑子里就会个铃声。
        　　LL: It's a very vivid expression and easy to remember. Right?
        　　LH: 对，我们和她说好下个周末一起打网球，你还记得吗?Does that ring a bell?
        　　LL: Yeah, that rings a bell. What time were we supposed to meet her?
        　　LH: 我记得我们约好了下午4点种在网球场碰面的。
        　　LL: That rings a bell, too. I had better write that down so that I don't
forget again.
        　　LH: Larry, 这个星期五是2月11号，怎么样，那是什么日子啊?Does that ring a bell?
        　　LL: It rings a bell, but I'm not sure why. Could you refresh my memory?
        　　LH: Larry! 我真不敢相信你居然忘记了!
        　　LL: I'm just kidding, Li Hua. Of course, I remember that Friday is your
birthday.
