nightmare噩梦，man操纵，tot幼儿

【笑话原文】

That’s My Son

It’s every airplane passenger’s nightmare—getting stuck near a crying baby. I was manning the ticket counter at a busy airport when the sound of a crying infant filled the air. As the next passenger stepped up to the desk, he glanced at the tot and rolled his eyes. “Don’t worry,” I said to him cheerily. “Chances are that baby won’t be on your flight.” Head shaking, he grimly replied, “Oh, bet he will. That’s my son.”

【中文译文】

那是我的儿子

如果乘飞机的时候坐在啼哭的孩子附近，那简直就是一场噩梦。当我在一个繁忙的机场顶班帮助检票的时候，有一阵婴儿的哭闹声传过来。下一个乘客走到柜台跟前，看了一眼娃娃，把眼睛转过去。我安慰他说：“别担心，很有可能这孩子不和你坐同一班飞机。”他摇摇头，无可奈何地说：“他肯定要和我坐同一班飞机。他是我的儿子”
