Promise or Threat?
| | "My friend, I say I had some trouble." A man said to his friend, " yesterday
I had words with my wife. After that she punched the door and rushed out
angrily with the word that she would live with her mother. Please help me.
Is this a promise or a threat?"
"Do you think there are differences between the two?" his friend asked.
"Yes, quite a lor. If it is a promise, that means that my wife is sure to be
with her mother, and if a threat, that my mother-in-law will move and live
with us."

许诺还是威胁？
“听我说，朋友，我遇上麻烦了。”一个男人对他的朋友说，“昨天我和
妻子吵了一架，他她怒气冲冲地摔门走了，并声明说她要和她母亲住在一起。
你替我想想，这是许诺，还是威胁呢？”
“这两者有什么区别吗？”朋友问。
“不，区别太大了。如果它是承诺的话，那就是说它肯定是要和她妈妈一
起住；要是威胁呢，那就意味着我岳母要搬到我家来住。”
