外国最新英语幽默笑话精粹44:教育阶段 (中英)
The dean of Engineering had once walked into a class, and said "Good Morning.”
一天工程系的主任走进一个班,说道:“早上好。”
The whole class chorused" Good Morning”
全班齐声回复:“早上好。”
"Hi,you are freshmen aren’t you?" he asked.
“你们是大一的吧?”主任问道。
One student bolder than the others asked him how he knew.
一个胆子比较大的同学问主任是怎么知道的。
"Well,”he said. "When I say‘Good Morning' to a class,if they are freshmen they say Good Morning' too. If they are sophomores,they quietly fold their papers away,and look at me. A class of juniors will look at me over the top of their papers, and then get back to them. A class of seniors will ignore my greeting, and keep reading the papers. When I say `Good Morning' to a class of graduate students, they write it down.”
“嗯,”主任说,“如果是大一的新生,当我向他们问早上好的时候,他们也一定会说‘早上好’的。如果他们是大二的学生,他们会轻轻地合上课本,然后集体望着我。大三的学生则会从书本上抬起头看我一眼,然后马上又继续读书了。大四的学生则会对我视而不见,继续看书。至于研究生班的学生,我向他们问早上好,他们就会把这句话写在笔记上。”
