A Clever Excuse | 巧妙的借口

English Original

Police officers hear many excuses from people caught parking in spaces reserved for handicapped persons.

Once, an officer stopped a man for doing so. When asked if he knew the parking regulations, the man answered correctly. The officer then asked why he had parked there anyway.

"Oh, I injured my leg last week," the man replied. "The doctor said I might become disabled if I didn't get proper treatment. So, I'm just trying to experience what it feels like to be a disabled person."


中文翻译

警察总能听到许多借口,来自那些把车停在残疾人专用车位被抓到的人。

一次,一名警察拦下了一个这样做的男子。当被问及是否知道停车规定时,男子回答正确。警察接着问他为什么还要把车停在那里。

"哦,我上周腿受伤了,"男子回答说。"医生说如果不好好治疗,我可能会残疾。所以,我只是想提前体验一下当残疾人的感觉。"
