How to Save Time?

怎样节约时间?
The efficiency expert concluded his lecture with a note of caution. "You don't want to try these techniques at home."
一个效率专家在结束报告时又加了一句告诫的话:“不要在家里随便尝试这些提高效率的技巧。”
"Why not?" asked someone from the back of the audience.
坐在后面的一个听众问:“为什么不能?”
"I watched my wife's routine at supper for years," the expert explained.
效率专家解释道:“我曾经连续几年观察我妻子做晚饭。”
"She made lots of trips to the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying just a single item at a time."
“她做一顿饭要在冰箱、灶台、餐桌和橱柜间来来回回走上无数次,每次都只拿一样东西。”
"'Honey,' I suggested, 'Why don't you try carrying several things at once?'"
“于是我就建议她说:‘亲爱的,你为什么不一次多拿几样东西呢?’”
The voice from the back asked, "Did it save time?"
刚才提问的人又问道:“这样做节省时间了吗?”
The expert replied, "Actually, yes. It used to take her 40 minutes to get supper ready. Now I do it in twenty."
专家答道:“时间确实是节省了。以前她做一顿晚饭要花40分钟,现在我做就只有20分钟了。”
