一对正在度蜜月的新婚夫妇到华盛顿的水门旅馆登记住宿。当天晚上,丈夫刚要熄灯,新娘子问道:“你看这个房间会不会装有窃听器?”
"That was a long time ago, sweetheart,”he reassured her.
“亲爱的,那都是过去的事了。”丈夫安慰她。
"But what if there’s a microphone somewhere? I'd he so embarrassed.”
“可要是什么地方藏着传声器,那该怎么办呢?那叫人多不好意思啊!”
So the groom searched under the tables and behind the pictures. Then he turned back the nig. Sure enough,there was a funny一looking gizmo in the floor. He took out the screws, got rid of the hardware,and climbed into bed.
所以新郎就在桌子底下和挂画后面的墙壁上搜查了一遍。然后他翻开了地毯。果然,地板中有个外表奇特的小玩意儿。他拧下螺丝,卸掉零件,就爬进了被窝。
The next morning the newly weds were awakened by a hotel clerk who wanted to know if they had slept well.
第二天早上,这对新人被旅馆的工作人员叫醒了,他问他们晚上是否睡的好。
"We did,” replied the groom." Why do you ask?"
“睡的好啊,“新郎回答到:“你为什么要问这个问题呢?”
"It’s rather unusual.” The clerk answered, "last night the couple in the room below yours had a chandelier fall on them.”
“这太不寻常了,”工作人员说道:“昨天夜里有盏枝型吊灯落下去,砸在了你们楼下那对夫妇身上。”
