Early Shopper | 早起的购物者

English Original

It was Christmas and the judge was in a benevolent mood as he questioned the prisoner.

"What are you charged with?" he asked.

"Doing my Christmas shopping early," replied the defendant.

"That's no offense," replied the judge. "How early were you doing this shopping?"

"Before the store opened," countered the prisoner.


中文翻译

“你被指控犯了什么罪?”他问道。

“过早进行我的圣诞购物,”被告回答。

“这不算犯法,”法官说,“你多早就开始购物了?”

“在商店开门之前,”囚犯反驳道。
