Wife's Desire

A woman and her husband were out shopping when she realized that she needed to purchase some hair color for her graying hair.

“When are you going to stop buying that expensive stuff，” complained the husband. “and let your hair go gray like Barbara Bush？”

“The day that you're inaugurated，” the wife replied.

妻子的欲望

一位女士在與他的丈夫購(gòu)物時(shí)，她意識(shí)到她該為她的灰白頭發(fā)買(mǎi)些染發(fā)水了。

她丈夫抱怨說(shuō)：“你什么時(shí)候才能停止買(mǎi)那些昂貴的東西，而讓你的頭發(fā)長(zhǎng)成像芭芭拉·布什（總統(tǒng)夫人）的頭發(fā)那樣灰白呢？”

“那就要等到你就職的那天了。”妻子說(shuō)。

Both a Mother and a Teacher

I teach middle-school choir and occasionally have my own children in class. One day my son asked if he could have a pencil. As a teacher， I normally do not lend items to unprepared students; but as a mother， I help my children whenever I can. I asked my son whether he was speaking to his teacher or his mother. He replied， “It depends on who has the pencil.”

母親與教師

我教初中的唱詩(shī)班，偶爾會(huì)教到自己的孩子。一天，我兒子問(wèn)我是否能借給他一支鉛筆。作為一位老師，我一般不借東西給那些不做課堂準(zhǔn)備的學(xué)生。但作為一位母親，我應(yīng)隨時(shí)幫助我的孩子。于是，我問(wèn)兒子他是在跟老師說(shuō)話，還是在跟母親說(shuō)話。而他卻說(shuō)：“那要看誰(shuí)有鉛筆了。”

“Clever” Doctor

As a doctor is examining a patient， his nurse bursts in and says， “Excuse me， but that man you just treated walked out of the door and collapsed on the front step. What should I do？”

“Turn him around，” the doctor answered， “So it looks like he was walking in.”

“聰明的”大夫

大夫正為一個(gè)病人做檢查時(shí)，她的護(hù)士闖了進(jìn)來(lái)說(shuō)：“請(qǐng)?jiān)彛瑒偛旁谀@兒看病的那位病人出門(mén)時(shí)摔在前面的臺(tái)階上了，我該怎么辦呢？”

大夫回答：“給他轉(zhuǎn)個(gè)身，這樣，別人看起來(lái)會(huì)以為他是正往里走。”
