美国流行笑话：Listen to whom 听谁讲

58　Listen to whom 听谁讲

Our flight was about to take off when the passenger behind me launched into a loud and annoying conference call on his cell phone. “Sally, get the customer lists. Charlie, pull all the data together we have. Bob, can you bring us up to date” and on and on. As the flight attendant began the preflight safety instructions, the executive's voice was drowned out by the PA system. I heard him mutter into the phone, “Hold on a second. Some people just like to hear themselves talk.”

我们的飞机刚要起飞，坐在我后面的乘客用他的手机开起了电话会议，声音又响又烦人。“莎丽，拿来客户名单。查理，把我们现有的数据都调出来。罗伯特，你讲一讲最近的情况。”没完没了地讲。当空中小姐开始起飞前的安全讲解的时候，这位老板的声音被广播声音压过了。我听见他对电话里嘀咕说：“等一会儿。有的人只想让别人听他们讲。”
