幽默笑话精粹71：您可以下来了

he cruise ship my friend was working on socked at a Mexican port during a very high tide. Everyone on board was forced to use the ship's narrow gangplank as a passageway to the dock far below.

我的一位朋友在游览船上工作。有一次船停泊在墨西哥的一个港口，这时正是潮水很高的时候，游客们从船上下到码头必须使用很窄的跳板作为通道。

The staff stood motionless when a passenger in her 70's appeared at the top of the plank. There wasn't room for anyone to assist her, so she edged along slowly and finally made it to the dock safely, to everyone's relief. As she stepped down, she turned，looked back at the top of the plank and shouted, "it' s okay, mother, you can come down now.”

一位七十多岁的老妇人出现在跳板的顶端时，船上的工作人员都吓得呆站着，大气也不敢出。跳板太窄，没有办法让人去搀扶老妇人。所以她慢慢地侧着身子往下走，最后终于安全地到达那码头上，大家也都放心了。她下来以后，转过身，望着跳板的顶端喊道:“放心吧，妈妈，您现在可以下来了。”
