练习 2

I had an amusing experience last year. 1) I left a small village in the south of France. I drove on to the next town. On the way, a young man waved to me, I stopped and he asked me for a ride. 2) He got into the car. I said good morning to him in French and he replied in the same language. Apart from a few words, I don’t know any French at all. Neither of us spoke during the journey.3) I nearly reached the town. The young man said, “Do you speak English?” As I soon learnt, he was English himself!

If you were me, what would you do?

My friend told me that he could pin a glass of water onto the wall, a glass made of glass instead of paper, with an ordinary steel pin. Of course I didn’t believe, so he made the experiment for me. Holding the glass up to the wall, he started to pin it up. But the pin dropped again and again. He asked me to hold the pin for him. When I bent down to pick up the pin, the water was poured on my head. Then I knew it was a joke. To be frank, I was angry but later on we both laughed.

If you were his girlfriend, you would

A famous TV star once invited his girlfriend onto his show on April Fool’s Day. He asked her to marry him. She was thrilled, because she really wanted to get married. However, when she said “Yes”, he replied, “April Fool!” That little joke didn’t have a very happy ending. The TV star lost both his girlfriend and his show.

We feel regretfulOn April Fool’s Day, I played a trick on my teacher. In the morning, I met her and told her that the headmaster had something to tell her, and now he was waiting fro her on the first floor. She heard that and hurried down the stairs. When she got there, another student told her that the headmaster went up to find her. Then my poor teacher went to the fourth floor. But the headmaster wasn’t there. Then I told her that the headmaster didn’t find her and he went down to the first floor. She was annoyed but went down again. While she was wandering whether she should went to the fourth floor again, we told her, “Happy April Fool’s Day”, she realized that it was a joke. We felt sorry because our teacher said nothing but to cry for a long time.

Suggestions from the lawyer:

Everyone has the liberty of speech.

No one has rights to challenge the personality and dignity of human beings.

Look before you leap.

Make an apology if your joke makes other students angry
