A fruit vendor in Philippines sold a watermelon to a woman and assured her that it was very sweet because it was red inside.
在菲律賓。 一個女人從一個水果商那里買了一個西瓜,水果商向她保證這個西瓜非常甜,因為是紅瓤的。
As she rode home on a bicycle, the vehicle skidded and the watermelon fell to the street and broke open, the woman was surprised to see that the fruit was pale pink but not red. So she returned with it to the vendor and complained loudly. “Madam,” replied the vendor, “when one falls out of a vehicle to the street, one can expect to turn pale. How about a watermelon?”
當這個女人騎車回家時,西瓜在剎車時掉在地上摔裂了,女人吃驚地發(fā)現(xiàn)這個西瓜不是紅瓤地,而是淺粉色地。 于是她返回去找水果商理論。 “夫人。 ”水果商回答,“如果一個人從車子上摔倒在地上,也會嚇得臉色發(fā)白。 更何況是西瓜呢?”
