看笑话学英语:Just Ask the Boss

[size=5][color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]There was a guy who went into a shop to buy a parrot. There were[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]three parrots in the shop. One was $5,000; another one, $10,000;[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]and the third one, $30,000. [/font][/color][/size][size=5]
[/size]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]The customer asked the owner,[/font][/color]
[size=5]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]“How come this guy is $5,000? That’s so expensive for this kind[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]of parrot.” The owner said, “Because I have trained him and he[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]can talk.” So the customer asked him, “How about this guy?[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]What can he do that makes him so expensive?” The owner said,[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]“Well, apart from talking, he can also do some amusing actions,[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]like dancing and so on. That’s why he’s so expensive.”[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]Then the customer said, “How about the third one? What can[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]he do that makes him so expensive?” The owner of the shop[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]said, “I don’t know. Normally, I have never heard him talk,[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]nor dance, nor whistle, nor sing, nothing at all![/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]But the other two call him ‘The Boss.’”[/font][/color][/size]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]这只要卖五千元?这个价钱对这种鹦鹉来说太贵了!」老板说:[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]「因为我有训练他讲话。」顾客又问:「那这只呢?他会做什么?[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]为什么要卖这么贵?」老板说:「他除了会说话之外,还会表演[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]一些有趣的动作,好比说跳舞等等,所以才卖这么贵。」[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]顾客接着又问:「那第三只呢?他会做什么?为什么要卖这么贵?」[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]老板说:「我不知道。我从没听过他讲话、吹口哨或唱歌,[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]也没看过他跳舞,什么都没有!不过另外两只叫他:『老板!』」[/font][/color][/size]
