Sharing the love

A COUPLE are walking in the park when they notice a young man and woman sitting on a bench, passionately kissing.
"Why don't you do that?" asks the wife.
"Honey," replies the husband, "I don't even know that woman!"

Logic Reasoning

A fourth-grade teacher was giving her pupils a lesson in logic.
　　"Here is the situation," she said. "a man is standing up in a boat in the middle of a river, fishing. He loses his balance, falls in, and begins splashing and yelling for help. His wife hears the commotion, knows that he can't swim, and runs down to the bank. Why do you think she ran to the bank?"
　　A girl raised her hand and asked, "to draw out all of his savings?"

逻辑推理

小学四年级的教师正在给学生们上一堂逻辑课。她举了这么一个例子："有这样一种情况，一个男人在河中心的船上钓鱼，突然失去重心掉进了水里。于是他开始挣扎并喊救命。他的妻子听到了他的喊声，知道他并不会游泳，所以她就急忙跑向河岸。谁能告诉我这是为什么？" 一个女生举手答道，"是不是去取他的存款？"


[注]bank在英语中除了我们平时很熟悉的"银行"之外，还有"河岸"的意思。

Taken for Granted

THE SCHOOL HEALTH FORMS had been distributed to the students with an error---the word "Sex" had been spelled with an "o". One mother, filling out the form for her son, wrote in the blank next to "Sox": "Usually brown."

理所当然
某学校发给学生的健康调查表里有个错别字——把"性别"的"性"字写成了"袜"字。一位母亲在为她的儿子填写表格时，在"袜别"的那栏填上了："棕色为主。"

[注] 英语中sex（性）与sox（袜）只有一个字母之差。

Q: How come your nose isn't twelve inches long?
　　A: Because then it would be a foot.
　　
　　foot既有"脚"，又有"英尺"的意思，而一英尺等于十二英寸。所以当句中问道"你的鼻子怎么不是十二英寸长呢？"，回答就是"因为那样的话它就会变成脚了"。

Q: Which is the strongest creature in the world?
A: The snail. It carries its house on its back.

　　因为snail（蜗牛）的后背上总是背着一所房子，所以说蜗牛是世界上最强壮的生物是不足为奇的。
