Audiobook Dictation: “He was not especially hungry; but…”

He was not especially hungry; but in sipping the coffee and nibbling the cakes he passed the best part of an hour.

Ia tidak terlalu lapar; tetapi sambil menyesap kopi dan mengunyah kue-kue, ia menghabiskan hampir satu jam.

Talk about the Major's extravagance: it could not be compared to Uncle John's.

Bicara soal pemborosan sang Mayor: tak ada bandingannya dengan Paman John.

Another hour was spent in looking in at the shop windows.

Satu jam lagi dihabiskannya untuk melihat-lihat etalase toko.

Then, suddenly noting the time.

Lalu, tiba-tiba memperhatikan waktu.

Uncle John walked in, although the uniformed official at the door eyed him suspiciously.

Paman John masuk, meskipun petugas berseragam di pintu memandangnya dengan curiga.

"Mr. Marvin in?" he inquired, pleasantly.

"Tuan Marvin ada?" tanyanya dengan ramah.

"Not arrived yet," said the official, who wore a big star upon his breast.

"Belum datang," kata petugas yang mengenakan bintang besar di dadanya.

"I'll wait," announced Uncle John, and sat down upon a leather-covered bench.

"Saya akan menunggu," kata Paman John, lalu duduk di bangku berlapis kulit.
