英語(yǔ)幽默精讀【64】It's a Puzzlement
I asked a colleague of mine how he liked the shirt his daughter had given him as a gift. "The color and the design are nice," he said. "But the sleeves are three inches too long."
I suggested that perhaps it was made for a much taller man. "I don't think so," he said. "If I stand on my toes, it still fits the same."

我問我的同事是否喜歡他女兒送他的襯衣。“顏色和款式嘛是無(wú)可挑剔，”他說(shuō)，“就是袖子長(zhǎng)了三英寸。”
