第6章 咬人的狗狗

There was a hound dog lying in the yard。An old man in overalls was sitting on the porch。“Excuse me,sir,does your dog bite?”the tourist asked。The old man replied,“No。”So the tourist stepped out of his car。The dog ran over snarling and growling and bit him on his arms and legs。As the dog was dragging him away the tourist was flailing around in the dust and yelled,“I thought you said your dog didn't bite!”The old man replied,“It's ain't my dog。”

有一只猎犬躺在院子里,一位穿着工装裤的老人坐在门廊上。游客问:“先生,打扰您一下,您的狗咬人吗?”老人回答说:“不咬。”听到老人这样讲,游客就下了车。狗呲着牙咆哮着跑过来狠狠地咬了他的胳膊和腿。狗把他拖在地上,游客在土里乱扑腾并大叫:“你不是说你的狗不咬人吗?”老人回答:“这只可不是我的狗。”
