The Policeman and the Monkey | 警察与猴子

English Original

A policeman brought a monkey to his boss. The boss asked, "What kind of monkey business are you getting up to?"

The policeman explained, "This monkey was wandering the streets and breaking all the rules. I'm turning him in."

"Oh, my goodness! You're so dumb!" exclaimed the boss. "If you catch a monkey, you take it to the zoo. Why bring it to me? Take it to the zoo!"

So, the policeman took the monkey and left.

Three or four days later, the boss saw the policeman again. He was holding the monkey's hand, leading it to the police car. He opened the door, helped the monkey inside, and was about to drive away.

The boss ran out and asked, "Oh, my goodness! Why is the monkey still here? I told you to take it to the zoo!"

The policeman replied, "Yes, sir. I already took him to the zoo. Today, I'm taking him to see a movie."


中文翻译

一位警察带了一只猴子去见他的上司。上司问道:“你这是搞什么猴子把戏?”

警察解释道:“这只猴子在街上乱逛,不守任何规矩。我把它抓回来了。”

“哦,我的天!你可真!”上司喊道。“如果你抓到一只猴子,你应该带它去动物园。带给我干嘛?带它去动物园!”

于是,警察带着猴子离开了。

三四天后,上司又看到了那位警察。他正牵着猴子的手,把它领向警车。他打开车门,把猴子扶上车,正准备开车离开。

上司跑出来问道:“哦,我的天!这猴子怎么还在这儿?我不是让你带它去动物园吗!”

警察回答:“是的,长官。我已经带它去过动物园了。今天,我带它去看电影。”
