"My family is just like a nation," Mr. Brown told his colleague. "My wife is the minister of finance, my mother-in-law is the minister of war, and my daughter is foreign secretary." "Sounds interesting, " his colleague replied. "And what is your position?" "I’m the people. All I do is pay." 布朗先生告诉同事说：“我的家简直就象一个国家一样。我妻子 是财政部长。我岳母是作战部长，我女儿是外交秘书。” “听上去挺有意思的，”他的同事说，“那你的职务是什么呢？” “我就是老百姓。我要做的一切就是付钱。”
