　　篇一

　　Brown: I'm sorry to see you so unwell. Have you seen the doctor?

　　Jack: Yes. I'm having three baths a day.

　　Brown: What for?

　　Jack: Don't know, doctor's orders. He gave me some medicine and told me to follow the directions on the bottle, whichread: "One tablespoonful to be taken three times a day in water."

　　篇二

　　Teacher: Would you rather have one half of an orange or five tenths?

　　Gerald: I'd much rather have the half.

　　Teacher: Think carefully, and tell me why.

　　Gerald: Because you lose too much juice when you cut the orange into five tenths.

　　An art critic was used to criticizing very severely and in a very detailed way.

　　When he was commenting on one painting and then on another in the gallery, he pointed at a picture and said: "It's showing a marked lack of technique and understanding. Look! Those trees seem to have no form, and the grass has not roots. And here you see the artist had attempted to draw a fly to catch the public eye, I would not disapprove of it if he had been able to draw it better and made it like a fly. But this fly looks like a lump of mud and has not the character of a fly."

　　At this point while the critic was still rambling, the fly on that picture suddenly look wing and flew away.

　　有個美術評論家習慣於吹毛求疵。

　　當他在美術館裡評論一幅幅畫作時，就指著一幅畫說：“這幅畫顯得缺乏技巧和領悟，瞧!那些樹看來不像樣，那些草也沒有跟。你們再看這裡，作者還特地畫了一隻蒼蠅來引人注意。要是他能畫的更好些，使它像只蒼蠅，我也不會發對。可是這隻蒼蠅就像一塊爛泥，也沒有蒼蠅的特徵。”

　　正當這位評論家還在喋喋不休地大發議論時，畫上那隻蒼蠅忽然張開翅膀飛走了。
