背誦為王第一冊第18課：A Joke - 'I stand corrected' 笑話 —“我誠懇認錯”
I have this friend who always seemed to lean slightly to the left all the time. It used to bother me, so I suggested he see a doctor, and have his legs checked out. For years, he refused and told me I was crazy, but last week, he finally went. Sure enough, the doctor discovered his left leg was a quarter inch shorter than his right. A quick bit of surgery later, he was cured, and both legs are exactly the same length now, and he no longer leans. 'So,'I said, 'You didn't believe me when I told you a doctor could fix your leg. He just looked at me and said, 'I stand corrected.'
我有一個朋友，他似乎總是微微向左傾斜。這個問題曾經非常困擾我，所以我建議他去看醫(yī)生，檢查一下他的腿。 幾年來，他總是不聽我的建議，還說我不正常，但是上星期，他終于去看了醫(yī)生。果真，醫(yī)生發(fā)現(xiàn)他的左腿比右腿短四分之一英寸。一個很快的小手術后，他康復了，現(xiàn)在他的兩條腿完全一樣長了，他也不再傾斜了。 “你看，”我說，“那時我告訴你醫(yī)生可以治好你的腿時你還不相信我呢。”他看著我說：“我認錯了。”
