Keke Funny Moment

可可輕松一刻

A Nail Or A Fly?
釘子還是蒼蠅？

An old gentleman whose eyesight was failing came to stay in a hotel room with a bottle of wine in each hand.
一位視力正在衰退的老紳士住進了一家旅館的客房。他雙手各拿一瓶酒。

On the wall there was a fly which he took for a nail.
在墻上有只蒼蠅，他誤以為是枚釘子。

So the moment he hung them on, the bottles fell broken and the wine spilt all over the floor.
他把兩只瓶子朝上一掛，瓶子掉下來摔碎了，酒灑了一地。

When a waitress discovered what had happened, she showed deep sympathy for him and decided to do him a favour.
一個女服務員發現發生的事情以后，對他深表同情，決定幫他個忙。

So the next morning when he was out taking a walk in the roof garden, she hammered a nail exactly where the fly had stayed.
于是，第二天早上他到樓頂花園散步時，她把一枚釘子釘在了蒼蠅停過的地方。

Now the old man entered his room. The smell of the spilt wine reminded him of the accident.這里，老人回到了房里。倒灑的酒味讓他想起了那件事。

When he looked up at the wall, he found the fly was there again!
他抬頭往墻上一看，蒼蠅又停在了那兒!

He walked to it carefully and slapped it with all his strength.
他輕手輕腳地走近，使盡全力拍了一掌。

On hearing a loud cry, the kind-hearted waitress rushed in.
聽到一聲大叫，好心的女服務員沖進房來。

To her great surprise, the poor old man was there sitting on the floor, his teeth clenched and his right hand bleeding!
讓她大為吃驚的是，可憐的老頭正坐在地板上，牙關緊咬，右手滴血不止。
