A couple took their six-month-old girl to the movies with them. At the gate, the usher2 said they'd leave if the baby cried.
But we'll refund your money, he added.
After watching the movie for a half-hour, the husband turned to his wife, "Well, darling, what do you think of the movie?" he asked.
It's the worst thing I've ever seen. the wife replied.
Me, too. he agreed, "Shake little Joan."
Notes:
1. refund 退款
2. usher 引座員
一對夫婦帶著他們6個月大的女兒去看電影。在門口,引座員說,如果嬰兒哭的話,他們就得離開影院(以免干擾別人)。
“不過,我們會把電影票錢退給你們的,”他接著說道。
這對夫婦看了半小時電影,丈夫轉(zhuǎn)向妻子問道:“你覺得電影怎樣?”
妻子答道:“從沒看過比這更差的?!?
“就是,”丈夫附和道,“把小寶寶瓊搖醒?!?
