A Mark

A couple of country boys rented a boat and went fishing.
In a remote part of the lake they found a spot where

the fish were really biting.
“We’d better mark this spot so we can come back tomorrow,”

one of them said.
“Ok, I’ll do it,” the second one said.
When they got back to the dock, the first one asked,

“Did you mark that spot?”
“Sure,” said the second, “I put a chalk mark on the side of the boat.”
“You nitwit,” said the first. “How do you know we’ll

get the same boat tomorrow?”

記號

有幾個鄉下男孩租了一條船去釣魚。在湖里一處僻靜的地方

他們發現那兒的魚真好上鉤。
“我們最好把這個地方做上記號，這樣我們明天還來這里。”其中一個說。
“好的，我來做。”第二個男孩說。
當他們回到碼頭時，第一個問：“你把那個地方做記號了嗎？”
“當然。”第二個說：“我用粉筆在船的邊上劃了記號了。”
“你這個笨蛋。”第一個說：“你怎么知道我們明天還是用同一條船呢？”
