（单词翻译:单击）

Two buddies1 were talking about a big date Scott had the previous night.

"So, Scott, how did it go last night?" John asked.

"It was terrible," Scott grumbled2. "From the moment we got back to her place, the phone started ringing. There had to have been no less than twenty calls from guys wanting to take her out. It was non-stop and we never got started."

Trying to comfort him, John replied, "I'm sure it could have been worse, Scott. Look at it this way, a young, attractive3 woman is allowed to have her phone number in the phone book, isn't she?"

"Yeah, of course, John," Scott said, "but in the Yellow Pages?!?"
