看笑话学英语:Quick Reaction







 My battery commander and I were interviewing candidates for a position as reconnaissance sergeant in our artillery unit. The selected soldier needed to have keen eyesight, plus the ability to react quickly. During one interview, the commander pointed to a hill about a mile away and asked a young sergeant, "Can you see that hill over there?"


  "Yes, sir." he replied.

  "Can you see the radio antenna on that hill?" Again, the soldier said that he could. "Well, then," the commander went on, "Can you see that bird sitting on the antenna?"

  The sergeant leaned forward and squinted. "No, sir," he said, "but I can hear it is singing."

  He got the job.

 快速反应

  我和连长在面试我们炮兵部队侦察中士一职的候选人。被选的士兵要求有敏锐的观察力及快速的反应力。在一次面试时,连长指着一英里外的一座小山问一名年轻的中士:“你能看见那座山吗?”

  “是的,长官。”他回答道。

  “你能看见那座山上的无线电天线吗?”那士兵又说他能。“那么,”连长接着说:“你能看见停在天线上的那只鸟吗?”

  那名中士身体前倾,眼睛眯成一条缝。“看不见,长官,”他说,“但我听见它在唱歌。”

  他得到了那份工作。
