閱讀 : 次
A lady went to a hat shop to buy a hat. As she was very fussy, it took her a long time to pick on one。
一位婦女到一家帽子店買帽子。她很挑剔，用了很長時間才選好了一頂。
Already at the end of his patience the salesman was afraid that she might change her mind again so he tried to flatter her: "An excellent choice, madam.You look at least ten years younger with this hat on!"
已經忍耐到極限的售貨員害怕她再改變主意，便恭維她：“你做了極好的選擇，夫人。你戴上這頂帽子看上去起碼年輕十歲！”
To his dismay, the lady took off her hat at once and said: "I don't want a hat that makes me look ten years older as soon as I take it off. Show me some more hats!"
但令他沮喪的是，這位女士馬上摘下了她的帽子說：“我不想要一頂摘下來便使我立刻顯得老十歲的帽子。多拿一些帽子給我看看！”
