Two Roaches | 两只蟑螂

English Original

Two roaches were munching on garbage in an alley when one started talking about a new restaurant.

"I was in that new restaurant across the street," said one. "It's so clean! The kitchen is spotless, and the floors are gleaming white. There is no dirt anywhere -- it's so sanitary that the whole place shines."

"Please," said the other roach, frowning. "Not while I'm eating!"


中文翻译

两只蟑螂正在一条小巷的垃圾堆上大快朵颐,其中一只聊起了一家新开的餐馆。

“我当时在街对面那家新餐馆里,”它说。“那里太干净了!厨房一尘不染,地板洁白闪亮。到处都没有污垢——整个地方都闪闪发光,卫生极了。”

“拜托,”另一只蟑螂皱着眉头说。“别在我吃东西的时候说这个!”
