賴世雄讀英語笑話學英語之高尚職業笑話(7):把褲腳塞到你的靴子里面去(雙語)
unit 7 and stuff the cuffs in your boots 把褲腳塞到你的靴子里面去
the untried general faced battle the next day , and was more than a little frightened. seeking inspiration, he looked into the history of great commanders and learned that wellington had always dressed in red for battle, so that his men would not realize if he were shot.
一位未曾有過作戰經驗的將軍非常惶恐,因為第二天將有個戰役要面對。為了尋找靈感,他翻查了歷年來偉大將領的檔案,發現威靈頓將軍每次戰斗中都身穿紅色衣服,萬一他被射傷的話,他的士兵也不會發現。
instantly he called in his adjutant and ordered a pair of trousers in a rich, dark brown.
于是他傳了副官進來并指示手下做了一條深褐色的褲子。
英語知識點解說:
1.stuff n. 材料,東西(不可數) 塞;擠入
例:i'm afraid i can't go out with you this afternoon. i have a lot of stuff to do.
(恐怕我下午沒辦法跟你外出。我有好多東西要做。)
