The Mean Man's Party 　　

The notorious（声名狼藉的，臭名昭著的） cheap skate（小气鬼） finally decided to have a party. Explaining to a friend how to find his apartment, he said, "Come up to the fifth floor and ring the doorbell with your elbow（肘部，扶手） . When the door open, push with your foot."

　　

"Why use my elbow and foot?"

　　

"Well, gosh," was the reply, "You're not coming empty-handed, are you?"

吝啬鬼的聚会　

　

一个声名狼藉的小气鬼终于决定要请一次客了。他在向一个朋友解释怎么找到他家时说：“你上到五楼，用你的胳膊肘按门铃。门开了后，再用你的脚把门推开。”

　　

“为什么我要用我的肘和脚呢？”

　　

“天哪！” 吝啬鬼回答，“你总不会空着手来吧？”
