Understanding
Mrs. Finkel was hanging out the wash when her gossipy neighbor approached.” I hate to tell you this,” said the gossip,” but there’s a rumor that yiour husband chases girls. And at his age, too.”she clucked.” He’s sixty-five, no?”
“Yes, he’s sixty-five,” said mrs. Finkel.” So let him chase girls. Dogs chase cars also. But when they catch one, can they drive it?”
理 解
當芬克爾夫人將洗完的衣服往外晾時，她的愛搬弄是非的鄰居走過來。“我不想告訴你這事，”這位愛講閑話的人說道，“可是有謠傳你的丈夫在追逐女孩子。而且還是他這樣的年齡，”她嘖嘖地表示道。“他六十五了，還沒到嗎？”
“是的，他六十五了，”芬克爾夫人說道，“就讓他去追逐女孩子吧。狗還追逐汽車呢。但是當它們追上汽車之后，它們能開車嗎？”
