JOKE 1>>>

I was studying in Texas,the US. When I tried to tell our professor that "here I am," I said "I'm coming." The professor can't be more embarrassed.

在美国德州读书。当时想向教授表达"我来 了"，然后我来了句"I'm coming"。教授整个 人都不好了。

【点评】

"I'm coming"是人在性高潮临近时说的话， 经常在美剧、电影和有色笑话里听到。怎么 表达才让教授听懂呢？可以说"Here!"(我已 经到了)或者"I'm not here but on the way" (我在路上了).

JOKE 2>>>

When I travelled by air in Britain, the stewardess served me some water and I said "Thanks", she said"cheers", then I raised my cup. She looked puzzled. Then out of the plane I found almost all people, from Customs staff to shuttle bus driver, were saying "cheers." Why cheers? I have no glass in hand!

去英国时坐飞机，空姐倒完水之后我说 Thanks，空姐说Cheers，于是我就对她举 了举杯。空姐当时就惊呆了。再之后从海关 到机场大巴司机，一路上都有人跟我说 cheers，我就疑惑了啊，我这手里也没杯子 啊，怎么cheers？！

【点评】

英国人说cheers表示"谢谢，再见"的意思。

JOKE 3>>>

When I was in Britain, one of my Chinese classmates wanted to make some chicken soup, so he went to the grocery. He said he wanted to buy "chicken," not knowing the word "hen." So when the grocer showed him a rooster, my classmate shook his head and said"I don't want this one, I want his wife!"
