Clean Glass | 干净的杯子

English Original

Clean Glass

Joe and Fred were helping to build a house in a village. The weather was very warm, there was a lot of dust everywhere, and by half past twelve, they were very thirsty, so they stopped work to have their lunch. They found the nearest small bar, went in and sat down with their sandwiches.

"Good afternoon, gentlemen. What can I get you?" the man behind the bar asked.

Joe looked at Fred and said, "Beer, I think. Yes, a pint of beer each. Is that all right for you, Fred?"

"Yes, that's all right," Fred said. Then he turned to the man behind the bar and said, "And I want it in a clean glass! Don't forget that."

The man behind the bar filled the glasses and brought them to Joe and Fred. Then he said, "Which of you asked for the clean glass?"

干净的杯子

乔和弗雷德正在一个村子里帮忙盖房子。天气很暖和,到处尘土飞扬。到了十二点半,他们感到非常口渴,便停下工作去吃午饭。他们找到最近的一家小酒吧,走进去,带着三明治坐了下来。

"下午好,先生们。要点什么?" 吧台后的男人问道。

乔看了看弗雷德说:"我想喝啤酒。对,每人一品脱啤酒。你觉得行吗,弗雷德?"

"好的,可以。" 弗雷德说。然后他转向吧台后的男人说:"我要用干净的杯子装!别忘了。"

吧台后的男人倒满杯子,拿给乔和弗雷德。接着他问道:"刚才哪一位要干净的杯子?"
