12 I can’t see
12 我看不到
An Irishman was once serving in a regiment in the desert. He wasn't fond of the climate of the war zone. The temperature sometimes was about 40 degrees centigrade, so he decided to think out a trick by which he could get home.
有個愛爾蘭人在沙漠中的部隊服兵役，他不喜歡戰(zhàn)地的氣候，那兒氣候又是會超過40攝氏度。于是他決定想個法子回家。
He went to the doctor and said to him, "I have a disease of the eye. My eyesight is very bad. Can you do me a service?"
他去看醫(yī)生，對醫(yī)生說：“我眼睛有毛病，我視力太差了，你能幫助我嗎？”
The doctor stared at him for a while and then asked, "Well, but how can you prove to me that your eyesight is bad?"
醫(yī)生看了他一會兒說：“好的，你怎么能證明你的視力差呢？”
The Irishman looked about the room and at last said, "Well, doctor, can you see that nail on the ceiling?"
這個愛爾蘭人看了看房間最后說道：“呃，醫(yī)生，你能看到天花板上的那個釘子嗎？”
"Yes," the doctor glanced at that black dot overhead, then replied.
“是的，”醫(yī)生掃了一眼頭頂?shù)哪莻€小黑點說。
"Well," said the Irishman, "But I can't."
“哦，”這個愛爾蘭人說，“我卻看不到。”
