The Lucky Frog | 幸运青蛙

English Original

A man takes a day off to play golf. On the second hole, he notices a frog by the green. As he prepares to swing, he hears, "Ribbit 9 Iron." Puzzled, he looks around, sees no one, and hears it again. He decides to prove the frog wrong, switches to a 9 iron, and hits the ball perfectly. Amazed, he calls the frog "lucky," and it replies, "Ribbit Lucky frog."

He takes the frog to the next hole. When asked for advice, the frog says, "Ribbit 3 wood." The man uses the 3 wood and scores a hole-in-one. Stunned, he continues with the frog's guidance and plays the best game of his life. He then asks, "Where to next?" The frog replies, "Ribbit Las Vegas."

In Las Vegas, at the roulette table, the frog advises, "Ribbit $3000, black 6." Though the odds are slim, the man bets and wins a fortune. Grateful, he books the best hotel room and thanks the frog, asking how he can repay it. The frog says, "Ribbit Kiss Me." The man kisses the frog, which transforms into a beautiful 15-year-old girl.

The story concludes with the man explaining, "And that, your honor, is how the girl ended up in my room. So help me God or my name is not William Jefferson Clinton."


中文翻译

一个男人休假去打高尔夫。在第二洞,他注意到果岭旁有只青蛙。他正准备挥杆时,听到一声“呱,9号铁。”他困惑地环顾四周,没看到人,又听到了同样的声音。他决定证明青蛙是错的,换上了9号铁,结果完美击球。他惊讶地称青蛙为“幸运蛙”,青蛙回应道:“呱,幸运蛙。”

他把青蛙带到下一洞。询问建议时,青蛙说:“呱,3号木。”男人用了3号木,打出了一杆进洞。他震惊不已,继续听从青蛙的指导,打出了人生中最精彩的一轮球。然后他问:“接下来去哪?”青蛙回答:“呱,拉斯维加斯。”

在拉斯维加斯的轮盘赌桌旁,青蛙建议:“呱,3000美元,黑6。”尽管赢面极小,男人还是下注并赢了一大笔钱。满怀感激的他订了最好的酒店房间感谢青蛙,并问如何报答。青蛙说:“呱,亲我。”男人亲了青蛙,它随即变成了一位美丽的15岁少女。

故事以男人的解释结尾:“法官大人,这就是那个女孩如何出现在我房间的经过。我向天发誓,否则我的名字就不是威廉·杰斐逊·克林顿。”
