　　"I go into my bathroom," I begin the story, "sometime around 6:45 a.m." 故事开始，“我去卫生间，”“在早上6点45分钟左右。”

　　Notice that we say a.m., but you could also say, "in the morning." 6:45 is also the same as quarter to seven. 注意到我们是说“a.m.”，而你也可以说“in the morning.”6:45也就相当于7点差15分。

　　"My sink and medicine cabinet are on the left when you enter my bathroom." “当你进入我的卫生间时，你会看到水槽和药柜在左边。”

　　In your bathroom and in your kitchen there is usually a sink and a faucet¹. 在你的卫生间和厨房里通常会有水槽和水龙头。

　　The faucet, "faucet," is where the water comes out, and normally you have hot water and cold water. 水龙头（faucet），也就是出水的地方，一般来说会有热水和冷水。

　　The sink is where the water goes into. 水槽也就是装水的地方。

　　Usually, it is a round or a square white bowl, really, that has a hole at the bottom and we call that hole the drain, "drain." 它通常是圆形或方形的白色碗状物，它底部有个孔，我们称之为排水孔（drain）。

　　That's where the water goes down into the pipe—it's where the water goes out of the sink. 水就从那里进入水管——也就是水流出水槽的地方。

　　If you want to fill your sink with water, you usually have to stop the drain. 如果你想在水槽里装满水，你就得堵上排水孔。

　　To stop a drain means to put something over it so that the water doesn't go down. 要堵上排水孔你就得在上面放些东西，这样水才不会流走。
