英語(yǔ)笑話(huà):感謝上帝 Praise the Lord

Then there was the preacher who decided to sell his horse. A prospective buyer was impressed with the animal, but the preacher said, " I must warn you-he only responds to 'church talk'. Go is 'Praise the Lord', and stop is 'Hallelujah"'.

"I've worked with horses all my life," said the buyer, "and I've never heard of anything like this." Mounting the horse, he said skeptically, " Praise the Lord." The horse began to trot. He repeated "Praise the Lord" and the horse broke into a gallop. Suddenly the buyer saw a cliff dead ahead. Frantic, he yelled "Hallelujah", and they came to a stop a foot from the edge.

Wiping the sweat from his brow, the buyer said, "Praise the Lord!"

欲買(mǎi)馬之人

傳教士決定賣(mài)掉他的馬。一位欲買(mǎi)馬之人看中了這匹馬，但傳教士說(shuō)：“我必須警告你----他只懂‘教堂語(yǔ)言’。走是‘感謝上帝’，停是‘哈里路亞’。”

“我一生都在同馬打交道，”買(mǎi)馬之人說(shuō)，“這樣的事我還是頭一次聽(tīng)到。”他跨上馬，將信將疑地說(shuō)：“感謝上帝。”馬開(kāi)始小跑。他重復(fù)說(shuō)“感謝上帝”，馬開(kāi)始飛奔起來(lái)。突然買(mǎi)馬者看到前面是一個(gè)懸崖。他嚇壞了，匆忙喊道：“哈里路亞。”他們?cè)陔x懸崖只有一英尺的地方停了下來(lái)。

買(mǎi)馬之人擦了擦額頭上的汗珠，說(shuō)道：“感謝上帝!”
