The Tomato
The emergency number is 911. The emergency number is for emergencies. An emergency is a fire. An emergency is a crime. An emergency is an accident. Steve dialed 911. “What is your emergency?” asked the dispatcher. “They put a tomato on my hamburger,” said Steve. “Excuse me?” said the dispatcher. “They put a tomato on my hamburger. I hate tomatoes. I told them no tomatoes!” The dispatcher said, “Sir, a tomato is not an emergency.” The dispatcher hung up. Steve dialed 911 again. “What is your emergency?” asked the same dispatcher. “They put a tomato on my hamburger. I hate tomatoes!” Steve said. The dispatcher asked, “Where are you? I will send the police.” Steve said he was at Burger King. The police arrived at Burger King. They put Steve in the back of their police car. They took him to jail.
緊急電話是911。只有緊急情況才撥打緊急電話。火情緊急。案情緊急。事故緊急。史蒂夫撥打了911。調度員問道；“您有什么緊急情況？”史蒂夫說：“他們在我的漢堡上放了個番茄。”調度員說：“您說什么？”他們在我的漢堡上放了番茄。我討厭番茄。我告訴他們不要番茄！調度員說：“先生，番茄不是緊急情況。”調度員掛斷了電話。史蒂夫又打了911。還是這名調度員，他問道：“什么緊急情況？”史蒂夫說：“他們在漢堡上放了番茄。我討厭番茄！”調度員問道：“您在哪？我將派警員過去。”史蒂夫說他在漢堡王。警員抵達漢堡王。他們將史蒂夫押解上后座。他們將送他去監獄。
