精品文档Lesson 89 A slip of the tongue 口误Who made the only funny joke that evening and why?People will do anything to see a free show -- even if it is a bad one. When the news got round thata comedy show would be presented at our local cinema by the P. and U. Bird Seed Company, we allrushed to see it. We had to queue for hours to get in and there must have been several hundredpeople present just before the show began. Unfortunately, the show was one of the dullest we haveever seen. Those who failed to get in need not have felt disappointed, as many of the artistes whoshould have appeared did not come. The only funny things we heard that evening came from theadvertiser at the beginning of the programme. He was obviously very nervous and for some minutesstood awkwardly before the microphone. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone burst outlaughing. We all know what the poor man should have said, but what he actually said was: 'This is the Poo and Ee Seed Bird Company. Good ladies, evening and gentlemen!"参考译文人们总要想尽办法看不花钱的演出——哪怕是拙劣的演出。
