赖世雄读英语笑话学英语之英语乐趣(3)：用脸去敲钟！(双语)
unit 3 face it! 用脸去敲钟！
quasimodo had just died, so the rector was looking for a new hunchback to ring the great bell of notre dame cathedral.
钟楼怪人刚去世，因此教区的神父正在找一位驼背的人来敲巴黎圣母院的大钟。
but the first man who applied for the job was not only a hunchback, but armless as well.
但是第一个去应征的不仅是驼背，而且连手也没有。
“of course, i’d like to give you the job,” said the priest, “but how will you manage it?”
“当然，我愿意给你这个工作机会，”神父说道“，可是你怎么去敲钟呢？”
“never fear,” replied the dauntless paraplegic. “just watch!”
“别怕，”勇敢的残疾者答道“。待会看了你就知道。”
the two men went up to the bell tower and there the applicant took a run at the great bell, striking it with his face. the effect was magnificent, and the hunchback repeated his performance several times. however, he soon became dizzy and at the next run, missed the bell completely and went hurtling out of the bell tower to crash to his death in the courtyard below.
两个人走上钟楼，应征者用脸撞那个大钟，响了好一阵子，效果良好。驼子又撞了几次。可是不久他就觉得头晕目眩，下一次竟然落了空，掉到钟塔外，跌死在下面的庭院里。
