聚会的那天晚上来到了。时钟敲响八点，客人马上就要到来了。克莱尔叫托尼到另一间房里去。就在那一瞬间，托尼弯曲胳膊搂着她，弯下身去把脸贴近她的脸。她大叫一声“托尼”，然后听到托尼一本正经地说，明天他不想离开她，而且他并不满足于仅仅使她开心。就在这时，前门的门铃响了。托尼放开了她，消失得无影无踪了。也就在这时候，克莱尔才意识到托尼早就把前边窗户的窗帘拉开了。她的客人把这一切看得一清二楚。
克莱尔和她的房子、美食给女士们留下了深刻的印象。就在他们离开之前，克莱尔听到格拉迪斯跟另外一个女人小声地说，她从来没有见过像托尼这样英俊的男人。受到那些女士的妒忌，这该是多么甜美的胜利!克莱尔也许并没有她们那样漂亮，但是他们中没有任何一个人拥有这样英俊的情人。

2.5 Claire spent three weeks with Tony in her house. What sentences in the story show that she kept forgetting and then remembering that he was a machine?
How absurd, she thought. He was just a machine. He held her firmly in his arms and she felt the warmth of his body.
She screamed, pushed him away and ran to her room for the rest of the day.
Then she remembered-Tony was just a machine. She shouted “Leave me alone” and ran to her bed.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION!
