最近公司培训，请了一个年纪不小的白人老头给大家讲课，为显示他见多识广，于是向大家提问：“如果你到过全美各大城市，就会知道每个城市的人都有自己最害怕的事情。比如people in Los Angeles are afraid of ···traffic; people in Las Vegas are afraid of summer heat; people in Tucson, Arizona are afraid of scorpions. Do you know what people are afraid of in Washington DC?”众人哑然。老头儿说：“Parking！”我一听马上接到：“No，I don’t think so.”老头儿惊愕道“What do you think people are afraid of then in DC?”我立即答道：“Senators！”另外一位同事马上接到：“No，I don’t think so!”“Then what?”“Being an intern!”
