英語幽默笑話：愚蠢的問題

　　Stupid Question

　　Dan was the doorman of a club in a big city. Everyday, thousands of people passed his door, and a lot of them stopped and asked him, "What's the time, please?"

　　After a few months, Dan said to himself, "I'm not going to answer all those stupid people any more. I'm going to buy a big clock and put it upon the wall here." Then he did so.

　　“Now people aren't going to stop and ask me the time," he thought happily.

　　But after that, a lot of people stopped, looked at the clock and then asked Dan, "Is that clock right?”

　　愚蠢的問題

　　丹在一個大城市的某個俱樂部當守門人。每天都有數(shù)千人經過他的門口，而且許多人都會停下來問他:“請問現(xiàn)在幾點?”

　　幾個月后，丹想:“我不想再回答這些蠢人提出的問題了，我要去買一只大鐘，把它掛在這兒的墻上。”于是他買了一只鐘，把它掛在了墻上。

　　“現(xiàn)在人們總不會再停下來問我時間了。”他高興地想。

　　可是打那以后，每天仍有許多人停下來，看看鐘，然后問丹:“這鐘準嗎?”
