'It's a bet,' agrees his buddy.A few minutes later,the man on the ledge jumps,so the loser hands his pal a $10 bill.'I can't take your money,'his friend admits.'I saw him jump earlier on the six-o'clock news.' 'Me,too,'says the other buddy.'But I didn't think he'd do it again.打赌 两个好朋友正坐在一家小酒馆内观看十一点的电视新闻.一则新闻报道说,有个男人威胁要从商业区一座大楼的二十层跳下去.一位朋友转身对另一位说道：“我敢赌十块钱,那家伙不会往下跳.” “赌就赌,”他的朋友欣然同意.几分钟后,站在墙檐上的男人跳了下去,因而赌输的那位交给他的朋友一张十元的钞票.“我不能拿你的钱,”他的朋友承认道,“早在六点的新闻里,我就已见他跳下去了.” “我也是,”另一位说,“可我想他不会再跳了!” 1．Do You Know My Work?One night a hotel caught fire,and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes． Two men stood outside and looked at the fire． “Before I came out,” said one,“I ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money． People don't think of money when they're afraid． When anyone leaves paper money in a fire,the fire burns it． So I took all the bills that I could find．No one will be poorer because I took them．” “You don't know my work,” said the other． “What is your work?” “I'm a policeman． “Oh!” cried the first man． He thought quickly and said,“And do you know my work?”“No,”said the policeman． “I'm a writer． I'm always telling stories about things that never happened．” 译文：（自己简单翻译） 你知道我是干什么的吗?一天晚上,一家旅馆失火,住在这家旅馆里的人穿着睡 衣就跑了出来.两个人站在外面,看着大火.“在我出来之前,”其中一个说：“我跑进一些房间,找到了一大笔钱.人在恐惧中是不会想到钱的.如果有人把纸币留在火里,火就会把它烧成灰烬.所以我把我所能找到的钞票都拿走了.没有人会因为我拿走它们而变得更穷.” “你不知道我是干什么的.”另一个说.“你是干什么的?” “我是警察.” “噢!”第一个人喊了一声.他灵机一动,说：“那你知道我是干什么的?”“不知道.”警察说.“我是个作家.我总是爱编一些从未发生过的故事
