英語(yǔ)幽默：A Businessman's Idea 商人的主意

A family moved from the city to the suburbs, and were told they ought to get a watchdog to guard their house.

So they bought the largest dog available from a near-by dealer1.

Shortly afterwards the house was broken into at night by burglars while the dog was asleep. The householder went to the dealer and told him about it.

"Well, what you need now," said the dealer, "is a little dog to wake up the dog."

一戶人家從城里搬到郊區(qū)，有人告訴他們應(yīng)該買(mǎi)一條看門(mén)狗來(lái)守家。

于是他們就去附近的一個(gè)商人那里買(mǎi)了一條最大的狗。

不久之后，夜賊闖進(jìn)他們家時(shí)那條狗卻一直在睡覺(jué)。這家的主人去找那個(gè)商人告訴他這件事。

“那么，”商人說(shuō)，“你們現(xiàn)在還需要一條小狗來(lái)叫醒這條狗。”
