Questions:
What is the difference between here and there?
What are the strongest days of the week?
Why did the man put wheels on his rocking chair?
Why is the letter “R” like Christmas?
At what time of day was Adam born?
Answers:
1. The letter “t”. ( there 去掉“t”,跟 here 這個(gè)字就沒(méi)什么兩樣。)
2. Saturday and Sunday --- all the other days are weak (week) days.
( weak與 week的發(fā)音一樣。而美國(guó)人的工作天只有五天,即從 Monday到 Friday ,這五天是他們的week days.)
3. Because he wanted to rock and roll. ( to rock and roll是跳搖滾舞。但在這兒,搖rock 的是rocking chair,滾 roll的是 wheels。這就造成了一句雙關(guān)的趣味。)
