This joke is about a man who has a clever, but not very honest idea. See how this gets him into trouble in the end. Enjoy!

(1) A butcher, who had had a particularly good day, proudly (2) flipped his last chicken on (3) a scale and weighed it. "That will be (4) 6.35 euros," he told the customer.
"That's a good price, but it really is a little too small," said the woman. "Don't you have anything larger?" Hesitating, but thinking fast, the butcher returned the chicken to the refrigerator, paused a moment, then took it out again. "This one," he said (5) faintly, " will be 6.65 euros."

The woman paused for a moment, then made her decision. (6) "I know what," she said, "I'll take both of them!"

(1) a man who cuts meat and sells it
(2) threw up onto the counter
(3) a small tool that shows how heavy something is
(4) you should read this as "six pounds, thirty-five pence"
(5) softly
(6) "I know what I want to do"

最后一只雞
這個(gè)笑話(huà)講的是一個(gè)有小聰明，但不太誠(chéng)實(shí)想法的人。看看這是怎么讓他陷入困境的。好好享受吧！
一個(gè)屠夫，有一天他很開(kāi)心，他非常自豪的把最后一只雞翻到秤上稱(chēng)了一下。“這是6.35英鎊，”他告訴客戶(hù)。
“價(jià)錢(qián)不錯(cuò)，但實(shí)在有點(diǎn)太小了，”那個(gè)女人說(shuō)。沒(méi)有大一點(diǎn)的嗎？”屠夫猶豫了一下，大腦飛速運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)，把肌肉放回冰箱，停了一會(huì)兒，然后又把它拿了出來(lái)。“這個(gè)，”他淡淡地說(shuō)，“5英鎊，6.65英鎊。”
那女人停了一會(huì)兒，然后做了決定。 “我知道我想要什么了，”她說(shuō)，“我兩個(gè)都要！”
