關於課前三分鐘英語笑話

　　民間笑話是一種頗受人們喜愛的民間敘事型別,材料豐富,有廣泛的現實基礎。但是它卻一直被學界視為不登大雅之堂的小眾,研究工作相對薄弱。小編分享，希望可以幫助大家!

　　：Shoulda Said

　　This guy walks into a bar with his golden retriever. "Hey, can I get a drink on the house if my dog talks for you?"

　　"Dogs can't talk, pal. But if you can prove to me yours does, I'll give you a drink. If not, I get to kick your ass."

　　"Okay," says the guy. He turns to his dog. "Okay fella. Tell me -- what is on top of your doghouse?"

　　"Roof!" The man turns and smiles at the bartender.

　　"THAT ain't talking! Any dog can bark!"

　　"Okay boy. Tell me -- how does sandpaper feel?"

　　"Ruff!"

　　"What the hell are you tryin' to pull, mister?"

　　"Okay, okay," says the man. "One more question please. Okay buddy, tell me -- who is the greatest ball player who ever lived?"

　　"Ruth."

　　The bartender beats the hell out of the guy and throws onto the sidewalk outside of the bar, then throws the dog out next to him. The dog stands up and looks at the guy.

　　"Geez. D'ya think I shoulda said DiMaggio?"

　　：A Second Opinion

　　A man runs into the vet's office carrying his dog, screaming for help. The vet rushes him back to an examination room and has him put his dog down on the examination table. The vet examines the still, limp body and after a few moments tells the man that his dog, regrettably, is dead. The man, clearly agitated and not willing to accept this, demands a second opinion.

　　The vet goes into the back room and comes out with a cat and puts the cat down next to the dog's body. The cat sniffs the body, walks from head to tail poking and sniffing the dog's body and finally looks at the vet and meows. The vet looks at the man and says, "I'm sorry, but the cat thinks that your dog is dead too."

　　The man is still unwilling to accept that his dog is dead.

　　The vet brings in a black Labrador. The lab sniffs the body, walks from head to tail, and finally looks at the vet and barks. The vet looks at the man and says, "I'm sorry, but the lab thinks your dog is dead too."

　　The man, finally resigned to the diagnosis, thanks the vet and asks how much he owes. The vet answers, "$650."

　　"$650 to tell me my dog is dead?" exclaimed the man...

　　"Well," the vet replies, "I would only have charged you $50 for my initial diagnosis. The additional $600 was for the cat scan and lab tests."

　　：The Mime and the Lion

　　One day an out of work mime is visiting the zoo and attempts to earn some money as a street performer.

　　However, as soon as he starts to draw a crowd, the zookeeper grabs him and drags him into his office.

　　The zookeeper explains to the mime that the zoo's most popular attraction, a gorilla, has died suddenly. The keeper fears that attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla until they can get another one. The mime accepts.

　　The next morning, before the crowd arrives, the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage. He discovers that it's a great job. He can sleep all he wants, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime.

　　However, eventually the crowds tire of him and he gets bored just swinging on tires. He begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his.

　　Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition, and dangles from the top to the lion's cage. Of course, this makes the lion furious, but the crowd loves it.

　　At the end of the day the zookeeper comes and gives the mime a raise for being such a good attraction as a gorilla.

　　Well, this goes on for some time. The mime keeps taunting the lion, the crowds grow larger, and his salary keeps going up. Then one terrible day when he is dangling over the furious lion, he slips and falls. The mime is terrified. The lion gathers itself and prepares to pounce. The mime is so scared that he begins to run round and round the cage with the lion close behind.

　　Finally, the mime starts screaming and yelling, "Help, Help me!", but the lion is quick andpounces. The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the angry lion and the lion says, "Shut up you idiot! Do you want to get us both fired?"
