美國流行笑話：It's three o'clock 那是三點鐘

163　It's three o'clock 那是三點鐘

My wife has always been impressed by my ability to identify bird species solely by its song. To help her learn a little bit about birds, I bought a novelty kitchen clock that sounds a different bird call for each hour. We were relaxing in our yard when a cardinal started singing. “What's that?” I challenged. She listened closely. “It's three o'clock.”
我太太對于我光聽鳥的叫聲就能說出是哪一種鳥的本領(lǐng)非常佩服。為了幫助她學(xué)習(xí)有關(guān)鳥的知識，我買了一臺小巧玲瓏的廚房鐘。它每個小時能發(fā)出不同的鳥叫聲。我們正在院子里休息的時候，一只紅雀開始唱歌。我考考我太太：“那是什么鳥？”她仔細(xì)聽了一會兒說：“那是三點鐘。”
