幽默笑話精粹71：您可以下來了

he cruise ship my friend was working on socked at a Mexican port during a very high tide. Everyone on board was forced to use the ship's narrow gangplank as a passageway to the dock far below.

我的一位朋友在游覽船上工作。有一次船停泊在墨西哥的一個港口，這時正是潮水很高的時候，游客們從船上下到碼頭必須使用很窄的跳板作為通道。

The staff stood motionless when a passenger in her 70's appeared at the top of the plank. There wasn't room for anyone to assist her, so she edged along slowly and finally made it to the dock safely, to everyone's relief. As she stepped down, she turned，looked back at the top of the plank and shouted, "it' s okay, mother, you can come down now.”

一位七十多歲的老婦人出現(xiàn)在跳板的頂端時，船上的工作人員都嚇得呆站著，大氣也不敢出。跳板太窄，沒有辦法讓人去攙扶老婦人。所以她慢慢地側(cè)著身子往下走，最后終于安全地到達那碼頭上，大家也都放心了。她下來以后，轉(zhuǎn)過身，望著跳板的頂端喊道:“放心吧，媽媽，您現(xiàn)在可以下來了。”
