Allergy to Lies | 对谎言过敏

English Original

A political speaker was annoyed by a man in the audience who coughed, sneezed, and blew his nose almost constantly.

Finally, the speaker could stand it no longer. He politely said to the man, "You seem to be having so much discomfort. If you go out for some fresh air, it might be good for your cold."

The man replied, "I don't have a cold. I'm just allergic to lies."


中文翻译

一位政治演说家被听众中的一个人惹得心烦意乱。这个人几乎不停地咳嗽、打喷嚏、擤鼻子。

最后,演说家再也忍不住了。他客气地对那个人说:“你看起来非常难受。如果你到户外呼吸些新鲜空气,可能对你的感冒有好处。”

那人回答说:“我没有感冒。我只是对谎言过敏。”
