Question

Mr Jones and Mr Brown worked in the same office. One day Mr Jones said to Mr Brown “We are going to have a small party at our house next Wednesday evening. Would you and your wife like to join us？”

Mr Brown said, “Thank you very much. That is very kind of you. We are free that evening，I think. But I will telephone my wife and ask her. Maybe (或许) she wants to go somewhere else that evening.” So Mr. Brown went to the other room and telephoned. When he came back，he looked very uneasy (心神不安的)．
