Churchill and Bernard Shaw Winston Churchill was Prime Minister of Great Britain during World War II. He was a fat and short man. George Bernard Shaw was a famous writer. He was tall and lean. Both of them were humorists. When they met at a reception, Churchill said to Shaw with a smile, "Mr. Shaw, when people see you, they must think there is a famine in our country." "Yes," said Bernard Shaw, "but they must think you are responsible for it." 丘吉尔和肖伯纳 丘吉尔是二战期间英国的首相,他是个又矮又胖的男人。肖伯纳是著名作家,又高又瘦。他们俩都是幽默诙谐的人。 一次,他们在一个招待会上碰面了。丘吉尔微笑着对肖伯纳说:“肖伯纳先生,人们看到您,一定 为我们国家正在闹饥荒。”“对,”肖伯纳回答:“但他们一定认为这是您造成的。” |
