說笑話練習：左右腿的差別

Mike visited his doctor complaining about a pain in his right leg. The doctor gave him a full physical exam and said:"It is sure the pain in your leg is simply caused by old age."麥克去看醫生抱怨他右腿痛。醫生給他做了全套的身體檢查後說：「可以確定的是，造成你腿痛的簡單原因是因為年紀大的緣故。」

Mike said, "Doc., You must have made a mistake."麥克說：「醫生，你肯定搞錯了。」

"Why do you say that?"「你為什麼那麼說?」

"Well, I"m not a doctor," Mike answered, "but it doesn"t take a medical degree to tell that your diagnosis is wrong. Clearly, you"re mistaken. After all, my other leg feels just fine."「嗨，我雖然不是醫生，」麥克回答道，「但是並不要取得醫學學位才能說你的診斷是錯誤的。很清楚，你是錯誤的。畢竟，我的另一條腿感覺可以啊。」

"So what?" said the doctor, "What difference does that make?"「那又怎麼樣呢？」醫生說道，「有什麼不同嗎？」

"Well, it doesn"t hurt a bit, and it"s the same age!"「有啊，這條腿一點都不痛，而它的年紀不是一樣的嗎？」
