英語笑話

913　It's easier just to be Ed 還是叫艾德比較方便

After one of the machines at work suddenly went on the fritz, I called the repair service and asked to speak to the manager, Ahmed. “Hello, Ed speaking. How can I help you?” said the guy who answered the phone. “Sorry,” I said. “I was looking for Ahmed.” “This is Ahmed,” came the reply. “How can I help you?” “I thought you said your name was Ed?” I asked. “It is. But whenever I say ‘Ahmed,’ people think I'm saying ‘I'm Ed.’ So I figured it's easier just to be Ed.”

我們的一臺機器突然發(fā)生故障，我就打電話給修理服務部，找經(jīng)理阿邁德說話。接電話的人說：“你好，我是艾德，我能為你做什么？”我說：“對不起，我找阿邁德。”回答是：“我就是阿邁德。我能幫你做什么？”我問：“你剛才不是說你的名字叫艾德嗎？”“是的。但是當我說‘阿邁德’的時候，大家以為我說‘我是艾德’。所以我想我還是叫艾德比較方便。”
