拔牙的代價(jià)

張亞榮

[英語(yǔ)原文]

“Im sorry，Madam，but I shall have to charge you twenty dollars for pulling your boys tooth.”

“Twenty dollars！Why，I understand you to say that you charged only four dollars for such work！”

“Yes，but this youngster yelled so terribly that he scared four other patients out of the office.”

[漢語(yǔ)翻譯]

“對(duì)不起，夫人，為您孩子拔牙我要收取20美元?！?/p>

“20美元！為什么？你說(shuō)好只要4美元的！”

“是的，但是您的孩子大喊大叫，把另外4個(gè)病人嚇跑了?！?/p>

[小幽默大智慧]

這個(gè)牙科醫(yī)生真會(huì)算數(shù)，將自己的損失算在那個(gè)大喊大叫的孩子身上。遇到這樣的醫(yī)生，孩子的媽媽可真是百口莫辯，有苦難言！
