英语的笑话2
So many people underestimate the power and importance of a smile, that simple little facial expression characterized by an upward curving of the corners of the mouth. A smile has many meanings: pleasure, friendliness, welcome, amusement, and many more; and it is part of a universal body language that doesn’t need any extra interpretation. Plus a smile, with all its simplcity and beauty, can be a very important factor in many aspects of our lives: You fall in love with a new country you visit because its people greet you with a welcoming smile everywhere you go; other countries you just don’t like even though they might have more history, nature, entertainment and whatnot because their people don’t seem so friendly or accepting. You feel like buying from a certain store when the vendor welcomes you in with a smile, sometimes even if you wouldn’t intially have bought anything; and in other stores, even though they have exactly what you need or better, you decide to walk away because the vendor doesn’t look welcoming at all. You want to give a waiter a good tip when he serves you with a smile, even if the food turns out not that good; on the other hand, sometimes you’ll have some of the best food ever, but you won’t feel like giving the waiter a tip, even if you do, because he was grumpy. More and more examples from our everyday life show how much a simple
smile can change everything.
Forever engraved in my mind will be the smiling faces of the people of Thailand, the friendly pizza delivery boy, the welcoming supermarket vendor, the nice cashier at the bank, …etc.
It is these smiles that keep me wanting to go back, and that keep us all wanting to go back; looking at it from another view, if we break it down using business sense, a smile is one of the most effective means to generate sales and develop customer loyalty. On top of all that, a smile is a very simple and easy thing to do, so it amazes why no one bothers to do it, it not only makes the person in front of you better, but it also makes you feel better as well, and I’m not making this up, it has been psychologically proven. Personally, I’d like to see more smiling faces in this world; in the airports when I enter a new country, in companies, government agencies, restaurants, hotels, banks, everywhere; and I think it is up to governments to campaign about this, and even make it obligatory in certain important places like airports, hospitals, hotels…etc. Let’s all simply smile.

The mothers of four priests got together and were discussing their sons. "My son is a monsignor," said the first proud woman. "When he enters a room, people say, 'Hello, Monsignor'." The second mother went on, "My son is a bishop. When he enters a room, people say, 'Hello, Your Excellency'."
"My son is a cardinal." continued the next one. "When he enters a room, people say, 'Hello, Your Eminence'.

英语的笑话10
在四年多的留学生涯中,笔者曾在生活实践中亲身领略过“好几国”英语。但最为回味无穷,常令人拍案叫绝的英语还要看咱们中式英语。
影响最大,也最经典的例子是“Long time no see”,意为“好久不见。早期去美国务工的华人并无英语语法方面的常识,于是想当然地按照中文语法生造出了这么一句问候语。而经过长期使用,美国人民颇为接受这样一个不合语法的短语,认为它简单明了,吐字又清晰方便。因此,这句中式短语堂而皇之地进入了英语的主流。如今我在国外与久未谋面的朋友相聚时,此句是必作开头儿的。
说完正面形象,我们当然就要谈谈反面典型了。第一个反面例子经常出现在买东西的场景里。我们中国人买什么东西时习惯说,给我来个这个,递我一个那个,比如:给我来包万宝路。我的一个同学第一次从国内过来时刚下飞机就在机场闹了笑话。他冲着机场商店里的店员说:“Give me a Marlboro(给我个万宝路)。”这种句式只有在歹徒抢劫商店时才会出现。店员当时冷汗就下来了,幸亏他身边的经理头脑灵活,问道:“Do you mean you want to buy a Marlboro(你是说你想买包万宝路吗?”我们同学感觉这个经理真“莫名其妙”,心里话:“我不买还能抢埃”于是点头说“yes yes!”
其实这类句子正确的表达应该是:“May I have something, please?”
第二个“反面教材”就是我们北方人常吃的面条,我们中国学生通常管它叫noodles。可当我初次来到国外时发现在超市里根本没有 “noodles”这种东西。面条的英语标名是pasta,或者spaghetti。noodles通常是指给小孩子吃的.细小绣密的面条。
第三个需要纠正的中式用法也是关于吃的,确切地说是关于吃后的感觉。我们中国学生遇到什么好吃的东西,经常就是将其评论为 “delicious”。其实这个delicious是很正式的用法,平时外国老百姓说话基本不用。他们用的通常是tasty,或者就是一句简单的 good,高度概括了。我宿舍附近有家比萨饼店招牌上的广告语就是“Damn tasty”,直接翻译过来就是“该死的好吃”!您说他们都多狠吧,可是再狠我也没听说有谁用“damn delicious”的。
最后附送读者两个小笑话。第一个是我自己的。刚来这边
留学时有一次聚餐吃的是小羊排。转天有个没去的外国同学问我吃了什么,我张嘴就来了 “lamp”。 lamp和羊排lamb只差一个字母,可意义想去甚远,乃是管灯的意思。那个外国同学一时惊叹,下意识地看了看
天花板上的大灯,心里大概在合计:这哥们儿牙口真棒!
第二个还是我同学的,有一天此君在自家厨房做饭,一个外国朋友打电话找他,问他在哪里。他不假思索地回答“I am in the chicken”。其实他肯定是想说“I am in the kitchen”。这一疏忽不要紧,没想到把自己变进公鸡的肚子里去了。

不会犯两次同样的错误
Boy: Hi, didn't we go on dates before? Onec or twice?

男孩:嗨,我们之前是不是约会过,是一次还是两次,我忘记了。
女孩:应该只有一次吧,我从不犯两次同样的错误。

我没有把药吃下去
A fellow who was rather slow on the uptake had been suffering from constipation, so the doctor provided him with some suppositories.
有位理解能力相当迟缓的.老兄一直为便秘所苦,因此医生给他一些利肠的栓剂。
A week later, the patient came back to tell the doctor that his condition had not improved.
一星期后病人回来告诉医生,他的状况尚未改进。
"I'm amazed," said the doctor. " Have you been taking the medicine I prescribed for you?"
“我觉得好奇怪,”医生说。“你有没有采用我开给你的药方呢?”
"What do you think I've been doing, shoving it up my ass?"
“你以为我做什么呢?难道要我把它们都塞进屁股里吗?”

送给妈妈的礼物
Three sons discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother. The first said, "Ibuilt a big house for our mother."The second said, "I sent her a Mercedes with a driver."Thethird smiled and said, "I've got you both beat. Remember how mom enjoyed reading the Bible?And you know she can't see very well. I sent her a remarkable parrot that recites the entireBible. Mama just has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot recites it." Soonthereafter, mom sent out her letters of thanks. She wrote one son, "the house you built isso huge. I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house." She wrote to another, "I am too old to travel. I stay most of the time at home, so I rarely use theMercedes." "Dearest Donald," she wrote to her third son, "you have the good sense to knowwhat your mother likes. The chicken was delicious."
三个儿子商量给年迈的妈妈买什么礼物好。 大儿子说,“我给妈妈建一幢大房子。”二儿子说,“我给她买一辆奔驰。”三儿子笑着说,“你们的礼物都不好。还记得妈妈多喜欢读圣经吗?现在她视力不大好看不了了。我送她一只鹦鹉,会背诵圣经的.。妈妈只要起个头,它就可以接着背下去。” 不久之后,妈妈分别给三人发了感谢信。她给大儿子写道,“你建的房子太大了,我只能住一间屋,可是要打扫整幢房子的卫生。”她给二儿子写道,“我太老了,没法出门旅行。大部分时间呆在家里,很少用车。”“亲爱的,”她跟小儿子说,“妈妈的心思你最明白,那只小鸟的味道美极了。”

Selling secondhand books at our church bazaar,I got into an argument with a prospective customer. He was interested in buying The Pocket Book of Ogden Nash but claimed it was overpriced at 35 cents. Other paperbacks were selling for 10 or 15 cents each.
在教堂的义卖市上卖旧书时,我与一名准备买东西的顾客发生了一场争论。他对购买袖珍《奥金·纳什集》颇感兴趣,但是说它要三十五美分开价过高。其他的平装书每本才卖十戴十五美分。

英语的笑话15
When my printer's type began to go faint, I called a repair shop where a friendly man told me that the printer probably needed only to be cleaned.
Because the shop charged 50 pounds for such cleanings, he told me, it would be better for me to read the printer's directions and try the job myself.
Pleasantly surprised by his words, I asked, "Does your boss know that you discourage business?"
"Actually it's my boss's idea," the employee replied. "We usually make more money on repairs if we let people try to repair things themselves first."
由于我的打印机不能打印出清晰的字来,我就打电话给维修部。电话是一位非常和蔼的男人接的.,他说我的打印机也许只是需要清理一下。
他还说,如果让维修部清理的话要交50英镑的清理费,让我最好看看使用手册自己试着清理。
当时我真的被他的话感动了,就问他:“你们老板知道你这样拒绝生意么?”
“事实上,这就是我们老板的主意,”雇员答道:“因为如果我们让用户先自行修理打印机的话就能挣更多的钱。”
