Foolish Questions
A man,full of excitement,phoned the fire department,“Fire! Fire!”
“Where is it?”
“My house!”
“I mean the location of the fire.”
“My kitchen!”
“Yes, but how can we get to your place?”
“Youve got a fire engine,havent you?”
愚蠢的问题
一个人情绪激动地打电话给消防队:“救火!救火!”
“在哪儿?”
“我家!”
“我问着火地点。”
“厨房!”
“好吧,我们怎样才能到你那儿?”
“你们有消防车,对吧?”
Perfect

“Fine! Good suggestion! Ill build a dormitory!”
好极了
“教授,”同学聚会时老毕业生说道,“既然我赚了不少钱,我想为可爱的母校做点事情。让我想想,当时我在哪门课程里比较出色?”

脑筋急转弯
Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice all live in the same house. Bob and Carol go out to a movie, and when they return, Alice is lying dead on the floor in a puddle of water and glass. It is obvious that Ted killed her but Ted is not prosecuted or severely punished. Why?
Answer:
Alice is a goldfish; Ted is a cat. (Or a dog, since the fishs body is still there rather than eaten.)
Bob,Carol,Ted和Alice都住在同一个房间。Bob和Carol出去看电影了,当他们回来后发现,Alice已经躺在地上的一摊水和碎玻璃上死了。很明显是Ted杀死了她,但是Ted没有被起诉,也没有受到严厉的惩罚!为什么?
