第8章 Tell the Difference

I stopped by a friend's house the other day and found him stalking around with a flyswatter.

When I asked if he had gotten any flies, he answered,"Yeah, three males and two females."

Curious, I inquired as to how he could tell the difference.

He answered,"Three were on a beer can and two were on the phone."

区分不同

几天前，我顺便到一个朋友家拜访，发现他正举着苍蝇拍四处拍打苍蝇。

我问他是否拍到几只苍蝇，他回答说：“拍到了，三只公的，两只母的。”

出于好奇，我问他是怎么区分的。

他回答说：“三只趴在啤酒罐上，两只贴在电话机上。”
