English Original
A little old lady went to the doctor and said, "Doctor, I have a problem with gas, but it doesn't bother me much. My farts are always silent and odorless. In fact, I've farted at least twenty times since I've been here in your office. You didn't notice because they're silent and don't smell."
The doctor replied, "I see. Here is a prescription. Take these pills three times a day for seven days and come back to see me next week."
The following week, the lady returned. "Doctor," she said, "I don't know what you gave me, but now my farts... although still silent... stink terribly!"
The doctor said, "Good! Now that we've cleared up your sinuses, let's start working on your hearing."

一位小老太太去看医生，说道：“医生，我有排气的问题，但这并不太困扰我。我放的屁总是无声无味的。事实上，自从我来到您的诊室，我已经放了至少二十个屁。您没注意到，因为它们既无声也无味。”
医生回答说：“明白了。这是处方。这些药片一天服用三次，连续七天，下周再来复诊。”
一周后，老太太回来了。“医生，”她说，“我不知道你到底给我开了什么药，但现在我放的屁……虽然还是没声音……却臭得要命！”
医生说：“很好！既然我们已经治好了你的鼻窦（恢复了你的嗅觉），现在可以开始治疗你的听觉了。”
