Humorous Remark
A man died and went to Heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him.
某人死後?淼教???谔??T口遇到了?彼得，同?r看??彼得後面的一大片??上??M了?r?。
He asked, "Whatever are all those clocks for?"
他??道：「那些?r?是作什?用的？」
St. Peter answered, "Those are lie-clocks. Everyone on Earth has a lie-clock.
Every time you tell a lie, the hands on your clock will move a tiny bit."
?彼得回道：「那些都是??扯?的?，每??人一生都跟?著一??扯?的?，他每扯一次??r?的指?司?右恍「瘛！?br />
"Oh," said the man, pointing at a clock still at 12, "whose clock is that?"
「喔！」?人回???K指著一??仍停留在十二?的???：「那???是?的呢？」
"That’s Mother Teresa’s. The hands have never moved, indicating that she was totally honest."
「那是泰瑞莎修女的，它的指??奈?舆^，?表示她一生都?]扯??，是??
很坦盏娜恕！?br />
"I see," said the man. "And whose clock is that one?"
「我明白了。」此人?道；「那???又是?的呢？」
St. Peter responded, "That’s George Washington’s clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that he told only two lies in his entire life."
?彼得回道：「那是?讨唯B?盛?的?，它的指??舆^二次，?表示他?一生
只扯?二次?。」
"Why this clock point at 11:59, was that man more honest than Mother
Teresa?"
「那?????槭颤N指到11?59分，?道此人比泰瑞莎修女?要??？」
St. Peter replied again, "No, that’s Bill Clinton’s clock; telling that he told lies many times in his leader period. One more lie the clock will point at 12."
?彼得又回答：「?了！那是比???柯林?的。?表示他在??任?戎e言不?啵?偌由弦淮尉涂梢曰氐?2?了。」
"Where’s Chen Shuei-Bian’s clock?" asked the man.
「那??场??水扁，他的?在哪里呢？」?人??道。
And St. Peter replied, "Abian’s clock is in my office; I’m using it for a ceiling fan!"
?彼得回??溃骸赴⒈獾溺?在我?公室，我把它?在天花板上??扇用了。」 |
