wrap包裹

【笑話原文】

Gift Wrapping

On the afternoon of Secretary Day, my co-worker and I finally found the time to get gifts for our secretaries. While at the store, my colleague noticed my disappointment. “What’s wrong?” he asked.

“They won’t provide gift wrapping,” I answered.

“No problem,” he said quickly. “I’ll ask my secretary to do it.”

【中文譯文】
