" I ’ m sorry I ’ m late , " said Richard , to no one in particular in the crowded office . The clock on the office wall said that it was 10 : 30 . He dropped his briefcase on his chair , wiped the sweat from his face with his handkerchief . " You wouldn ’ t believe what it was like getting here , " he continued . " It was a nightmare . "
«Извини, что опоздал», — сказал Ричард, никому конкретно в переполненном офисе. Часы на стене офиса показывали 10:30. Он бросил портфель на стул, вытер пот с лица носовым платком. «Вы не поверите, каково было попасть сюда», — продолжил он. «Это был кошмар».
