一位金发女郎体重超标。因此,她的医生给了她一个节食的减肥疗程。
“我希望你在头两天里正常进食。然后,跳过一天。这样连续重复两周。下次你再来见我时,你至少会瘦5磅。”
当金发女郎下次来看诊时,她瘦了将近20磅。
“瞧你这身材。真是太神奇了!”医生说,“你是按我的指示做了吗?”
金发女郎点点头。
“不过,我要告诉你,我以为,第3天我会死掉。”
“你是说,你饿得撑不住了吗?”医生说。
“不。跳了一天的绳,差点跳死。”金发女郎回答。
注:一词多义。英语中的Skip,有“跳过……不做某事”的意思,也有“跳绳”的意思。医生叫她两天进食,第3天禁食。她以为是两天进食,第3天跳绳。
原文:Overweight
A blonde is overweight,so her doctor puts her on a diet。
“I want you to eat regularly for two days,then skip a day,and repeat the procedure for two weeks。The next time I see you,you'll have lost at least five pounds。”
When the blonde returns,she's lost nearly 20 pounds。
“Why,that's amazing!”the doctor says,“Did you follow my instructions?”
The blonde nods。
“I'll tell you,though,I thought I was going to drop dead that third day。”
“From hunger,you mean?”said the doctor。
“No,from skipping。”replied the blonde。
