lost control of the car
nearly hit a bus
went up on the footpath
and stopped centimetres from a shop window.
乘客輕拍了壹下出租車司機的肩膀
想問個問題. 司機大叫起來
車也失去了控制
幾乎撞上壹輛公車
還上了便道
在還差幾厘米就撞上商店櫥窗時終於停了下來.
The driver said
"Look mate
don't ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!" The passenger apologized and said
"I didn't realize that a little tap would scare you so much. "The driver replied
"Sorry
it's not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver. I've been driving a funeral van for the last 25 years."
司機說
“夥計
別再這麽幹了. 妳把我嚇破膽了!”乘客抱歉地說
“我沒想到拍妳壹下就嚇成這樣.” 司機說
“對不起
也不全是妳的錯. 今天是我第壹天開出租. 以前25年裏我壹直開殯葬車.”
Note:
Daylights: 復數時
daylight可不是“白晝”的意思
而是“神智
知覺”的意思.
