美國(guó)流行笑話：Heroine in Rain 雨天的女英雄

40　Heroine in Rain 雨天的女英雄

An author was coming to my local bookstore to discuss her novel. The main character was “a strong-willed heroine fighting to survive the hardships of the times.” When I went to the reading, I was disappointed to learn the writer had canceled her appearance. The reason? She didn't want to drive in the rain.

一位女作家要到我們附近的書(shū)店來(lái)和大家討論她的小說(shuō)。小說(shuō)的主人公是一位“在困苦中以?shī)^斗求生存的意志堅(jiān)定的女英雄”。當(dāng)我趕到讀書(shū)會(huì)的時(shí)候，很失望地得知這位女作家取消了這個(gè)聚會(huì)。原因是她不愿意在雨天開(kāi)車。
