One Rich Man
鳄鱼
One day this rich guy was having a party at his house. He was loaded, and he had everything; money, a big house in Beverly Hills, girls, cars, planes,anything he wanted.
一天一个有钱人想要在他家开个宴会。他已经有了任何他想要的东西,包括钱、在比弗利山庄的大房子、女人、汽车、飞机等等等等。
The guy was also a little eccentric, and he had filled his pool with crocodiles.
这个家伙和其他有钱人一样有点小怪癖,他在水池里放满了鳄鱼。
So there he was, him and his friends all standing around drinking, getting lit and partying next to the pool. The guy gets up on the lifeguard tower and all his friends look up. He calls for silence and says "OK, the first person the swims across my pool will get all my money."
在灯火通明的聚会上,他和朋友们围绕在水池旁边。这个有钱人站上救生塔,所有朋友都仰头看着他。他让大家保持安静并且说:“第一个游过这个水池的人可以得到我所有的钱。”
No one moves. The guy looks over the crowd and says:"OK, the first person that swims across my pool gets all my money and my house." Still no one moves.
没有人动。这有钱人看眼了四周说:"第一个游过这个水池的人可以得到我所有的钱和房子。”依然没人动。
"OK then, the first person the swims across my pool gets all my money, my house and all my cars and planes."Still, no one moves, not even a eye blinks this time.
"第一个游过这个水池的人可以得到我所有的钱、房子和飞机。”情况一样,还是没人懂,这一刻大家都目不转睛。
"OK then, all my money, my house, all my cars, all my planes, all my property, all my stocks and bonds and investments and all the girls ,you can handle; everything I own."
"第一个游过这个水池的人,我所有的钱、房子、飞机、产业、股票、债券投资和女人,就都是你的了,所有我的东西全是。”
"Splash!" Someone's in the pool. Crocodiles are all over him, but he rolls over like Tarzan, he's all over the place, fighting and dodging. Finally he gets out of the pool on the other side. The rich guy on the tower jumps downand runs over to him.
“扑通!”有人跳进了水池。他四周全是鳄鱼,但是他反应迅速得像泰山一样,他一边躲避一边战斗。最后他终于成功到达水池的另一边。这个有钱人从塔上跳下来跑到他身边。
"That was incredible! I never thought that I would ever see that done! Do you want the money now or later?"
“太难以置信了!我从来没想过自己可以亲眼见证这种时刻!你现在就要拿到那些钱吗?“
"I don't want the money."
“我不要钱。”
"Do you want the house now or later?"
“你现在要房子吗?”
"I don't want the house."
“我不要房子。”
"Do you want the cars and planes now or later?"
“你现在要汽车、飞机吗?”
"I don't want the cars or the planes."
“我不要这些。”
"Do you want the bonds, stocks and stuff now or later?"
" 你现在要产业、股票诸如此类的东西吗?”
"I don't want that either."
“不要,那些我也不要。”
"Do you want the girls now or later?"
“那你是要女人?”
"I don't want the girls."
“不要,我不要女人。”
The rich guy looks at him and says "Well what the hell do you want???"
有钱人看着他恼火的问道:“那你究竟想要点什么啊???
"I want the bastard that pushed me in!"
“我就想知道,是哪个杂种把我推进池子里的!”
