心不在焉的教授们
Absent Minded Professors
There are three professors at the railway station. They were deep in conversation. The train had just arrived, but they did not notice it. Then the guard shouted, “Take your seats, please!”
The professors heard the guard and rushed for the train. Two of them got on the train before it moved. The third one was left behind. It was Professor Egghead. He looked sad.
One of the professor's students was at the station. He tried to comfort the professor. “It wasn't really bad, sir,” said the student. “Two out of three caught the train. That's quite good, you know.”
“I know,” the professor said, “But it was my train. My friends only came to say goodbye.”
火车站有三位教授,他们专心致志地交谈着。火车已经到了,但是他们都没有注意到。后来,火车上的乘务员喊道:“请坐到车上去!”教授门听到了乘务员喊声,匆匆忙忙1奔向火车。他们中的两个在火车开动前上了车,而第三个却被扔下了。他是艾格赫德教授。他显得很沮丧。
教授的一个学生也在火车站,他尽力安慰着教授:“这也不是太糟,先生”学生说,“三个人中有两个上了车,您看,那已经很不错了。
“我知道,”教授说,“但是,该上火车的是我,我的朋友们只是来送行的。”
