英语笑话:A Thoughtful Gift

A man went to Africa on a tour, and decided to buy

a present for his friend in America. But everything

was too expensive for him, just like at every tourist spot.

So he bought a broken vase that cost almost nothing.

He ge the address of his friend in America to

the shopkeeper and asked the shop to wrap the vase

and send it to that address.

He thought that his friend might think that the vase was

broken in the mail and would not blame him for being stingy.

When he got home, he received a thank-you

letter from his friend. The letter said: "Thank you very

much for the broken vase. It was very thoughtful of you

to wrap every broken piece in a sheet of paper."

好周到的礼物

有一个人去非洲旅游,他想买件礼物送给在美国的朋友,

但是就像所有的观光景点一样,那里每一样东西都卖得很贵。

最后他决定买了一个不值钱的破碎花瓶,然后他把美国朋友

的地址写给店主,请他把花瓶包好,寄到那个地址。他心想

那位朋友可能会以为花瓶是在邮寄途中被弄破的,就不会嫌他小气。

回家以后,他收到朋友的感谢函,信上写道:

非常感谢你送我一个破花瓶,而且还把每个碎片分别

用纸包起来,真是设想周到!
