感恩节的前一天,屠夫关门的时候,听见有人在敲前门。 “请您让我进来吧。'’这个人近乎绝望地说,“我忘了买火鸡了,如果我不买一只回家的话,我妻子非杀了我不可。’’ “好吧,"屠夫说,"让我看看还剩下没有。”他来到冷藏室,发现只剩下一只骨瘦如柴的火鸡了。他拿出来给这个人看了一下。 "这一只太瘦了。还有别的吗?”这个人问道。 屠夫把火鸡拿回了冷藏室,等了几分钟,然后又把它拿给了这个人。 "哦,不”这个人说道,'‘这只也好不到哪里去。你还是把两只鸡都给我吧。” Last Minute Turkey It’s the day before Thanksgiving,and the butcher is just locking up when a man begins pounding on the front door. “Please let me in,” says the man desperately, “I forgot to buy a turkey, and my wife will kill me if I don’t come home with one. ” “〇kay,” says the butcher, “let me see what I have left. ” He goes into the freezer and discovers that there’s only one scrawny turkey left. He brings it out to show the man. “This one is too skinny. What else you got?” says the man. The butcher takes the bird back into the freezer and waits a few minutes and brings the same turkey back out to the man. “Oh, no,,,says the man. “That one doesn’t look any better. You had better give me both of them! ” |
