笑話三則
笑話一
我通過易趣網(wǎng)出售一件物品，但在郵寄時(shí)遺失了，所以我去了當(dāng)?shù)氐泥]政局，請(qǐng)求他們把物品找回來?！斑@可不那么簡(jiǎn)單，”辦事員回答?！霸谖覀冮_始查找之前，你必須填一份郵件遺失表。”“好的，”我說，“我可以填一份?！彼诠衽_(tái)上翻找表格，然后又去問其他辦事員，他們也在柜臺(tái)上翻找。最后，他只得回來承認(rèn)，“你必須等一下再來。我們找不到表格了?！?
笑話二

笑話三
教室里的電腦總是不能滿足孩子們對(duì)速度的需求。一個(gè)坐立不安的學(xué)生正不耐煩地要遞交他的學(xué)期論文，他不停地點(diǎn)擊“打印”的命令。打印機(jī)開始一頁(yè)一頁(yè)艱難地打印這孩子的十頁(yè)論文。論題是什么呢？“救救我們的樹”。
Lesson28 Three Jokes
Joke 1
I sold an item through eBay but it got lost in the mail， so I stopped by my local post office and asked them to track it down． “It's not that simple，” the clerk replied． “You have to fill out a mail-loss form before we can initiate a search．” “Okay，” I said． “I'll take one．” He searched his counter， and then went to ask some other clerks， who did the same — only to return and confess， “You'll have to come back later． We can't find the forms．”
Joke 2
A couple of hours into a visit with my mother she noticed I hadn't lit up a cigarette once． “Are you trying to kick the habit?” “No，” I replied， “I've got a cold and I don't smoke when I'm not feeling well．” “You know，” she observed， “you'd probably live longer if you were sick more often．”
Joke 3
Kids have a greater need for speed than classroom computers can deliver． Impatient to turn in his term paper， one restless student kept clicking the “Print” command． The printer started to churn out copy after copy of the kid's ten-page report． The topic? “Save Our Trees．”
