外国最新英语幽默笑话精粹215:借口(中英)
A fellow bought a new Mercedes and was out on an interstate road for a nice evening drive. The top was down, the breeze was blowing through his hair and he decided to open her up. As the needle jumped up to 80mph he suddenly saw a flashing red and blue light behind him. "There is no way they can catch a Mercedes,” he thought to him- self and opened her up further. The needle hit 90, 100, 110 and finally 120 with the lights still behind him.
一个人刚刚买了一辆奔驰车,准备到州与州之间的公路上来一个夜晚兜风。他来到了最高处,微风轻轻拂过了他的发梢,这个人想让自己的爱车大显身手一番。指针指到了80英里/小时,突然,他看到了身后有一个闪烁的红蓝灯,“他们根本就别想追上我的奔驰。”他心想,于是加足了马力。指针指到90,100,110,最后到了120,可那个灯还在后面闪着。
"What in hell am I doing?" he thought and pulled over. The cop came up to him, took his license without a word and examined it and the car. "I’ve had a tough shift and this is my last pull over. I don’t feel like more paperwork,so if you can give me an excuse for your driving that I haven't heard before you can go”
“我到底在干什么呀!”他突然想到了什么,马上把车停在了路旁。警察走了过来,二话没说就拿走了他的驾照,然后看了看驾照和车说:“我上晚班已很累了,这是我最后一次叫停车。你要是能给我一个我从来没听过的借口,说明你为什么开这快车,我就不再做什么记录了,你就可以离开。”
“Last week my wife ran off with a cop,” The man said "and I was afraid you were trying to give her back!”
“上星期我的妻子和一个警察跑了,”男的说,“我还以为你追我,是想把我妻子还给我呢!”
"Have a nice night,” said the officer.
