英里mile[英][maɪl] [美][maɪl] 一位农夫和他的儿子乘坐轻便马车来到一段窄路，他们遇到一个开车的人向相反的方向去。两个方向的两英里以内都没有地方可以使他们相擦而过。驾车人甚是着急，按响了喇叭。 “如果你不后退，”农夫说着撸起了袖子，“我可不喜欢我将不得不做的事。”司机吃惊不小，挂上倒挡，向后退了两英里，让轻便马车先过去。 “刚才在那儿你说过的你不喜欢要做的事是什么？”农夫的儿子问道。 “退后两英里，”农夫回答道。 A farmer and his son, traveling by horse and buggy up a narrow lane, met a motorist going the other way.
