Today's key word is neighbour

n-e-i-g-h-b-o-u-r

英 ['neɪbə(r)]

Your neighbour is someone who lives near you.

邻居邻国邻近的

Here is an example:

A good neighbour is better than a brother far off.

远亲不如近邻。

今天我们要说的这个邻居呢，有点吵（此处有费玉清版嘿嘿嘿）

Jenna is a student at Syracuse University in New York.

Student life can throw up many challenges; a lack of money, terrible food and exams.

But for Jenna, the main issue blighting her academic life was noisy next door neighbours, who liked nothing more than engaging in rather loud lovemaking.

因为爱情生活过的特别激烈的隔壁邻居，Jenna表示单身的她很受伤。

于是，她给邻居写了一封信。

'Hello neighbor, Please have it a little more quietly please. Some of us are trying to nap and not be reminded of how alone I am...feel free to make all the love you want. Just please, make it nasty at a lower volume. Thank you!'

大致意思就是，单身汪在隔壁伤不起，嘿嘿嘿的时候请小点声音，保护单身汪，人人有责！

She then received a postcard posted under her door, accompanied by a bar of chocolate.

Amusingly, the postcard had photos of bananas on.

Jenna收到了邻居回复的一张卡片和一块巧克力，这张卡片上印有三支香蕉的图案。

那信里写了什么呢？

It read: 'Dearest neighbors, I'm so so incredibly sorry about that. I didn't realise how loud I was being, and yaknow, sometimes have loud lovemaking is low key kinda hot but obviously at your cost, which I apologise so sincerely for. I'm so so sorry, hope this hasn't been occurring too often, and thanks so much for the incredible and hilarious card. I will for sure try to keep it nasty at a significantly lower level. And hey, don't worry, you're not alone forever. The right person will come along when the time comes. I was single for 18 years. Haha. Once again, I apologise so sincerely and deeply. Sorry, Room 338."
