"No," replied the trainee.
"You fool, I am the General Manager of the company."
The man shouted back immediately, "And do you know who you are talking to, you fool?"
"No, " replied the General Manager.

3 聪明的目击人 A Smart Witness
A witness to an automobile accident was testifying.
The lawyer asked him, "Did you actually see the accident?"
The witness: "Yes, sir."
The lawyer: "How far away were you when the accident happened?"
The witness: "Thirty-one feet, six and one quarter inches."
The lawyer (thinking he'd trap the witness):"Well, sir, will you please tell the jury how you knew it was exactly that distance?"
The witness: "Because when the accident happened I took out a tape and measured it. I knew some annoying lawyer would ask me that silly question."

目击证人说:“三十一英尺,六又四分之一英寸。”
这名律师说(心想他已经抓住了这个目击证人的把柄):“那好吧,先生,请你告诉陪审团,你怎么知道确实是那个距离昵?”
目击证人说:“因为当车祸发生的时候,我就拿出了卷尺测量过了。我早知道会有一个令人伤脑筋的律师问我那个蠢问题 。”

At the end of his first day at work he rushed into his father's office, and said, "Father, father, in one day I broke the car accident case that you have been working on for ten years!"

他的老爸回答说:“你这个小白痴,我们公司就是依靠那个案件的资金才生存了十年呀!”
5 缠住不放 Persistence
Returning from a golf outing, my husband was greeted at the door by Sara, our four-year-old daughter. “Daddy, who won the golf game? You or Uncle Richie?”
“Uncle Richie and I don't play golf to win,” my husband hedged. “We just play to have fun.”
Undaunted, Sara said, “Okay, Daddy, who had more fun?”
丈夫打完高尔夫球回来,我们四岁的女儿莎拉在门口迎了上去。“爸爸,谁赢了高尔夫球比赛,是你还是理查叔叔?”
“我和理查叔叔打高尔夫球不是为赢,”丈夫推诿说。“我们打球只是为了好玩而已。”
莎拉毫不气馁,又问:“那么,爸爸,谁觉得更好玩呢?”
6 激动的话 Excited Remarks
Our son, at age of five, had a fascination for motorcycles. The sight of one would always bring forth squeals of delight, accompanied by excited remarks of Look at that! Look at that! I'm going to have one of those someday, his dad's response always was “Not as long as I'm alive.”
One day, while our son was talking to a little friend, a motorcycle passed by. He excitedly pointed it out to the boy and exclaimed, “Look at that! Look at that! I'm getting one of those as soon as my dad dies.”

一天我们的儿子跟他的小朋友在说话,有一辆摩托车开了过去。他兴奋的指着摩托车叫道: “瞧这辆!瞧这辆!等我爸一死我就要有这样一辆摩托车了。”
