Do You Know My Work？
One night a hotel caught fire， and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes．
Two men stood outside and looked at the fire．
“Before I came out，” said one，“I ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money． People don't think of money when they're afraid． When anyone leaves paper money in a fire， the fire burns it． So I took all the bills that I could find．No one will be poorer because I took them．”
“You don't know my work，” said the other．
“What is your work？”
“I'm a policeman．
“Oh！” cried the first man． He thought quickly and said，“And do you know my work？”“No，”said the policeman．
“I'm a writer． I'm always telling stories about things that never happened．”
你知道我是干什么的嗎？
一天晚上，一家旅館失火，住在這家旅館里的人穿著睡 衣就跑了出來。
兩個人站在外面，看著大火。
“在我出來之前，”其中一個說：“我跑進一些房間，找到了一大筆錢。人在恐懼中是不會想到錢的。如果有人把紙幣留在火里，火就會把它燒成灰燼。所以我把我所能找到的鈔票都拿走了。沒有人會因為我拿走它們而變得更窮?！?BR> “你不知道我是干什么的。”另一個說。
“你是干什么的？”
“我是警察?！?BR> “噢！”第一個人喊了一聲。他靈機一動，說：“那你知道我是干什么的？”“不知道?！本煺f。
“我是個作家。我總是愛編一些從未發(fā)生過的故事?！?BR>
