Unit 10 Who Killed My Dog? 谁杀了我的狗

A timid little man ventured into a biker bar in the Bronx , and clearing his throat asked, “Um, err, which of you gentlemen owns the Doberman tied outside to the parking meter ?”
一个害羞的小个子男生,鼓起勇气走进布朗克斯区一家飙车族酒吧,清了清喉咙问道:“嗯,这个,绑在外面停车表那只德国短毛猎犬是谁的啊?”

A giant of a man, wearing biker leathers with his body hair growing out of the seams,turned slowly on his stool. He looked down at the quivering little man and said, “It’s my dog.
一个穿着摩托车皮衣、衣缝露出体毛的彪形大汉,从凳子上慢慢转过身,低头看着这个发抖的小个子男生说:“是我的狗,怎么样?”

“Well,” squeaked the little man, very nervous, “I believe my dog just killed it, sir.”
“这个嘛,”小个子男生很紧张,尖声说道:“我想我的狗刚杀死了你的狗,先生。”

“What?”roared the big man in disbelief.“What in the hell kind of dog do you have?”
“什么?”大个子一脸难以置信的表情,大吼道:“你养的到底是什么狗啊?”

“Sir,” answered the little man. “It’s a 4-week-old puppy.”
“先生,小个子男人回答:”“是一只四周大的小狗。”

Bull!” roared the biker. “How could your puppy kill my Doberman?”
“胡扯!”机车骑士大吼:“你的小狗怎么可能杀死我的短毛猎犬?”

“It appears that he choked on it, sir.”
“它好像是吃我的小狗时噎死了,先生。”
