三個(gè)外科醫(yī)生
三個(gè)有名的外科醫(yī)生正在吹噓他們的技術(shù)。一個(gè)人斷了一只手,他來找我,一個(gè)說,如今那個(gè)人是個(gè)音樂會(huì)的小提琴手。
這算不了什么,另一個(gè)說。了,他來找我,我將它們接了回去。如今,那人是馬拉松選手。
我比你們兩個(gè)都強(qiáng),第三個(gè)說,一天,我碰到一起可怕的車禍。除了一個(gè)馬屁股,和一幅眼睛,什么都沒有留下。如今,那人坐在美國(guó)參議院里。
Three Surgeons
Three famous surgeons were bragging about their skills. A man came to me who had his hand cut off, said one. Today that man is a concert violinist.
That's nothing, said another. A guy came to me who had his legs cut off. I stitched them back on, and today that man is a marathon runner.
I can top both of you, said the third. One day I came on the scene of a terrible accident. There was nothing left but a horse's posterior - and a pair of glasses. Today that man is seated in United States Senate.
