Play Something the Dog Doesn"t Know
A little boy was practicing his violin, while his father sat reading the newspaper. The family dog began to howl along dismally.
Finally, the father could endure the combination no more and said, "Can"t you play something the dog doesn"t know?"
演奏一首小狗聽(tīng)不懂的曲子
一個(gè)小男孩在練習(xí)小提琴,爸爸在讀報(bào)紙。隨著小男孩的琴聲響起,家里養(yǎng)的狗開(kāi)始跟著嚎起來(lái)。
最后,爸爸實(shí)在無(wú)法忍受琴聲和狗叫聲的合奏了,說(shuō):“難道你就不能拉一支狗聽(tīng)不懂的曲子么?”
A Gentle Reminder
Having been married a long time, my husband sometimes needs a gentle reminder of a special occasion.On the morning of our 35th anniversary, we were sitting at the breakfast table when I hinted, "Honey, do you realize that we"ve been sitting in these same two seats for exactly 35 years?"
Putting down the newspaper, he looked straight at me and said, "so, you want to switch seats?"
委婉的提醒

他放下報(bào)紙,眼睛直愣愣地望著我:“所以,你想交換座位?”
