本文為一篇記敘文，按照事件發(fā)生的先后順序?qū)懗?。講述銀行發(fā)生的一件事情，主人公為一個小孩報打不平，更加強自己對銀行的偏見，后來才發(fā)現(xiàn)原來是官方的保護(hù)才這么做的。
I didn't think twice. " I was going to open a new account," I said, " but after seeing what' s going on here, I think I' ve changed my mind." 　　"Excuse me?" he said. 　　"Look ", I said. " If I understand what's going on here correctly, what you're saying is that this boy is old enough to deposit his money in your bank but he's not old enough to withdraw it. And since there doesn't seem to be any question as to whether it's his money or his account, the bank's so-called policy is clearly ridiculous." 　　" It may seem ridiculous to you," he replied in a voice rising slightly in irritation, " but that is the bank's policy and I have no other choice but to follow the rules."
我沒多想。“我原來準(zhǔn)備開個新帳戶，”我說，“但是我看到了剛才發(fā)生的事，我想我已經(jīng)改變主意了?！?　　“我不明白，請原諒?！彼f。 　　“哦，”我說，“如果我對剛剛發(fā)生在這的事理解正確的話，那么你是在說，按照這個男孩的年齡，他可以在你們銀行存錢但不能取錢。既然他的錢或者賬戶沒有任何問題，那么你們銀行的所謂規(guī)定顯然是荒唐可笑的?！?　　“這在你看來也許荒謬，”他回答說，憤怒中他的嗓門稍微抬高了些，“但是那是銀行的規(guī)定，我別無選擇，只能照章辦事?！?/div>
