A man takes his place in the theater, but his seat
is too far from the stage. He whispers to the usher,
"This is a mystery, and I have to watch a mystery close
up. Get me a better seat, and I'll give you a handsome
tip."
The usher moves him into the second row, and
the man hands the usher a quarter. Yep. 25 cents.
The usher looks at the quarter in his hand, leans
over and whispers, "The wife did it."
Key words:
stage (n.) 舞台
whisper (v)輕聲細語、耳語
usher (n.)帶位員
row (n.)排
quarter (n.)二十五美分硬幣
The wife did it. 是太太殺的
*這名男子出手太小氣,帶位員一氣之下,乾脆把謎底說給他聽,害他失去懸疑的樂趣。
