The Interview | 面试

English Original

Three blondes were vying for the last position on the local police force. The interviewing detective said, "So you all want to be cops?" After they nodded, he pulled out a photograph.

"To be a detective, you must be able to detect," he explained. "You need to notice distinguishing features." He flashed the photo for two seconds in front of the first blonde. "Did you notice anything?"

"Yes," she replied. "He only has one eye!"

The detective shook his head. "Of course he only has one eye! It's a profile picture! You're dismissed."

He then turned to the second blonde, showed her the photo briefly, and asked the same question.

"He only has one ear!" she answered.

Exasperated, the detective said, "This is a profile! You can only see one ear! You're excused too."

Finally, he showed the photo to the third blonde. "Probably a waste of time, but... did you notice anything?"

"Yes," she said. "This man wears contact lenses."

The detective, surprised, checked the file. "You're right! His bio says he wears contacts. How could you tell from the picture?"

The blonde rolled her eyes. "Well, with only one eye and one ear, he certainly can't wear glasses!"


中文翻译

三位金发女子正在竞争当地警队的最后一个职位。负责面试的警探看着她们说:“所以你们都想当警察?”她们点头后,他拿出了一张照片。

“要成为一名侦探,你必须具备侦查能力,”他解释道。“你需要注意到显著特征。”他在第一位金发女子面前快速展示了照片两秒钟。“你注意到什么了吗?”

“是的,”她回答。“他只有一只眼睛!”

警探摇了摇头。“他当然只有一只眼睛!这是张侧面照!你被淘汰了。”

接着他转向第二位金发女子,短暂地给她看了照片,问了同样的问题。

“他只有一只耳朵!”她答道。

警探恼怒地说:“这是侧面照!你当然只能看到一只耳朵!你也淘汰了。”

最后,他把照片给第三位金发女子看。“可能是在浪费时间,但是……你注意到什么了吗?”

“是的,”她说。“这个人戴隐形眼镜。”

警探很惊讶,查看了档案。“你说得对!他的资料说他戴隐形眼镜。你是怎么从照片上看出来的?”

金发女子翻了个白眼。“嗯,他只有一只眼睛和一只耳朵,肯定没法戴普通眼镜啊!”
