The Golfer's Adjustment | 高尔夫球手的调整

English Original

After a particularly poor game of golf, a club member skipped the clubhouse and headed for the parking lot. A policeman stopped him.

"Did you tee off on the sixteenth hole about twenty minutes ago?" the officer asked.

"Yes," the golfer replied.

"Did you happen to hook your ball over the trees and off the course?"

"Yes, I did. How did you know?"

"Well," said the policeman seriously, "your ball flew onto the highway and smashed through a car's windshield. The car went out of control, hitting five other cars and a fire truck. The fire truck couldn't reach the fire, and a building burned down. So, what are you going to do about it?"

The golfer thought it over and responded, "I think I'll close my stance a bit, tighten my grip, and lower my right thumb."


中文翻译

一场特别糟糕的高尔夫球赛后,一位俱乐部会员没有去会所,径直走向停车场。一名警察拦住了他。

"大约二十分钟前,你是在第十六洞开球的吗?"警官问道。

"是的,"高尔夫球手回答。

"你的球是不是刚好左曲飞过了树林,出了球场?"

"是的,没错。你怎么知道的?"

"嗯,"警察严肃地说,"你的球飞到了高速公路上,砸穿了一辆汽车的挡风玻璃。那辆车失控了,撞上了另外五辆汽车和一辆消防车。消防车无法赶到火灾现场,导致一栋建筑被烧毁。那么,你打算对此怎么办?"

高尔夫球手仔细想了想,回答道:"我想我会把站位收拢一点,握紧球杆,再把右手拇指放低一些。"
