Joke One
Customer: What are these pennies (penny一便士的硬币) doing in my soup(汤)?
Waiter: Well, sir, you said you'd stop eating here if there wasn't some change in the food.
这段对话的笑点在change这个单词,change作名词有两个意思,“变化,改变(可数名词/不可数名词);硬币,找头/找给的零钱(不可数名词)”。例如:
Great changes have taken place in our country in the past 40 years.过去40年,我国发生了翻天覆地的变化。
Finishing early was a welcome change.能早日结束是个可喜的变化。
She is a person who hates change.她是不喜欢变革的人。
Don't forget your change!别忘了找给你的钱!
The ticket machine gives change.自动售票机可以找零。
Do you have any change for the phone?你有打电话的硬币吗?
Joke Two
Customer: What is the fly doing in my soup?
Waiter: Swimming.
顾客在汤里发现了一只苍蝇,所以他幽默地问了一下服务员,服务员只能将计就计地回答了一下,说不定顾客就没那么生气了。
fly v.(flies, flying, flew, flown)飞;飞翔;飞行;疾驰,疾行;飞逝,这些意思常用作不及物动词。驾驶或操纵(飞行器等),可用作及物动词。n.苍蝇。例如:
I'm flying to Beijing tomorrow.明天我要乘飞机去北京。
Is this the first time that you've flown?这是你第一次乘飞机吗?
The train was flying along.火车飞驰着。
Three months flew past.三个月很快就过去了。
Autumn has Just flown by.秋天一晃就过去了。
He is learning to fly.他在学习驾驶飞机。
The children are flying kites on the playground.孩子们在操场放风筝。
