小故事背誦達人第5篇:Who's Got Brains?
單元 5 誰有腦子？
In the hospital, where their family member lay gravely ill, the relatives gathered in the waiting room. Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber.
家屬全部聚集在醫院的等候室，守著他們病重的家人。最后，醫生帶著疲倦而嚴峻的面容出現了。“恐怕有壞消息要告訴你們。他邊說邊環視”著眾人擔憂的臉龐：
"The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant.It's an experimental procedure, risky, and you will have to pay for the brain yourselves."
“到了這個地步，你們親愛的家人唯一的希望就是進行大腦移植，但這項手術還在實驗階段，風險很大，而且腦袋的錢你們得自行負擔。”
The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news.At length, someone asked, "Well, how much does a brain cost?"
聽到這個消息，家屬全都靜靜地坐著。最后有人問道：“那么，一顆腦袋要多少錢？”
The doctor quicklyresponded, "$2,000 for a female brain, and $5,000 for a male brain."
醫生很快回答：“女人的腦袋一顆2000 元，男人的腦袋一顆5000 元。”
The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding eye contact with the women, but some actually smirked.
氣氛變得很尷尬。等候室的男性家屬忍住不笑，避免接觸到女性家屬的眼神，但還是有些人不太自然地在偷笑。
A girl, unable to control her curiosity, blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask, "Why is the male brain so much more?"
有個女孩控制不了好奇心，大家都想問的問題被她一下子脫口而出："男人的腦袋為什么貴那么多？”
The doctor smiled at her childish innocence and then to the entire group said,"It's a standard pricing procedure. We have to mark the female brains down, because they've been used."
“這是標準的定價方式。我們不得不調降女人腦袋的價格，是因為它們一直都在使用。”醫生對她的赤子之心報以微笑，接著對全部的人說道：“這是標準的定價方式。我們不得不調降女人腦袋的價格，是因為它們一直都在使用。”
