Unit 24 Hot Dog
第24單元 熱狗
Two people immigrate to America. On their first day they are wandering around New York City. After many hours of sightseeing both people are hungry. They then come up to a street vendor selling hot dogs.
有兩個人移民到美國，第一天便在紐約市內到處閑逛。逛了幾個小時，兩人都餓了，便想去賣熱狗的路邊攤買東西吃。
One says to the other in a shocked tone, "My God. Do they eat dogs in America?"
其中一個人口氣驚訝地對另一個說：“我的天，美國有在吃狗肉啊？”
"I don't know!" says the other, equally appalled.
“我不知道耶！”另一個人同樣驚訝地說道。
"Well," says the first, "We're going to be Americans, so we must do as they do."
“那么，”第一個人說：“既然我們要當美國人，那就得入鄉隨俗才行。”
They approach the vendor bravely. "Two hot dogs, plaese."
他們于是鼓起勇氣來到攤販前面說：“要兩只熱狗。”
The vendor hands them their food in a pair of paper sacks. The two immigrants sit on a park bunch to eat their lunch. One looks inside his sack, hesitates and turns to his partner and says, "Uh, which part of the dog did you get?"
小販用兩個紙簍各裝一支熱狗給他們，這兩個新來的移民便去公園長椅上坐下來準備吃午餐。其中一個人看了一下紙袋里面的東西，猶豫了一會兒，轉頭對他的同伴說：“嗯，你拿到的是狗的哪個部位？”
