英語笑話
A woman was singing. One of the guests turned to a man by his side and criticized the singer.
What a terrible voice! he said. "Do you know who she is?"
Yes, was the answer. "She is my wife."
Oh, I beg your pardon. The man said, "Of course her voice is not bad, but the song is very bad. I wonder who wrote that awful song."
I did. was the answer.
