At eight o'clock this morning the telephone rang. I picked up the receiver（听筒）in a hurry. I knew at once the lady had dialed （拨号）the wrong number. But it took her a long time to find out. She said her name was Mrs Mills and asked if I was Mr Copper's secretary（秘书）. I told her she had dialed the wrong number, but I didn't think she listened to me.
She told me she wanted to cancel（取消）her two o'clock appointment（约会）because her husband was ill and she had to take care of him. I told her I was sorry to hear that, but she wouldn't listen to me. Then she wanted to know if she could make an appointment for next week.I told her I couldn't arrange （安排）it, "I'm not Mr Cooper's secretary."
At last she heard what I said. She wanted to know why I did not tell her sooner. I tried to explain it wasn't my fault（错误） ,but she would not listen. Before I could say a word, she hung up.
