英语笑话——父母的东西

笑话是日常生活中人们消遣娱乐的一种常见语言现象,其目的在于在会话过程中传递和激发幽默感。

When Peter is 17, he is as tall as his father. So he begins toborrow his father’s clothes when he wants to go out with his friends in the evening. Father doesn’t like this. And he always gets very angry when he finds his son wearing any of his things.

One evening when Peter is about to go out,his father stops him in the living room. He looks at Peter’s clothes very carefully. Then he says angrily, “Isn’t that one of my ties, Peter?”

皮特17岁的时候，长得和父亲一样高了。于是，当他晚上和朋友一起出去时，就开始借父亲的衣服穿。可是这位父亲可不喜欢这样，当他发现他的儿子穿他的衣服时，总是非常生气。

一天晚上，皮特准备出去，父亲在客厅里拦住了他。父亲细细打量着皮特的穿着。然后气呼呼的说着;“皮特，那不是我的领带吗?”

“Yes, Father, it is,” answers Peter.

“And that shirt is mine, too.”

皮特回答说：“是的，父亲，是您的领带。”

“还有那衬衫也是我的。”

“Yes, that’s your, too.” answers Peter.

“And you’re wearing my belt!”

“是的，衬衫也是您的。”皮特回答说。

“还有呢，你连皮带也用我的。”父亲说。

“Yes, I am, father,” answers Peter, “You don’t want to your trousers to fall down, do you?”

“是的，父亲，”皮特回答说，“您不愿意让您的裤子掉下来吧?”
