Анекдот - В кинотеатре

After buying his ticket (после покупки билета, купив билет), he stopped to purchase some popcorn (он остановился купить попкорна; to purchase [`p∂:rt∫∂s] - приобретать).
Handing the attendant (давая служащему; attendant [∂`tend∂nt]) $1.50, he couldn't help but comment (он не смог удержаться от замечания; to comment [`koment]), "The last time I came to the movie (последний раз, когда я был в кино), popcorn was only 15 cents (попкорн был только 15 центов)."
"Well, sir (ну, сэр)," the attendant replied (ответил) with a grin (с усмешкой), "You're really going to enjoy yourself (вы действительно развлечетесь). We have sound now… (теперь у нас есть звук = теперь кино звуковое)"
