英語笑話:I Lost 我輸了

It was at a five o’clock tea. A young man came to the hostess to apologize for his lateness.

“So good of you to come， Mr.Jones，and where is your brother?”

“You see we're very busy in the office and only one of us could come，so we tossed up for it.”

“How nice!And so original， too! And you won?”

“No，” said the young man absently，“I lost.”

五點(diǎn)鐘，下午茶的時(shí)間，一個(gè)年輕人因?yàn)檫t到向女主人致歉。

“您能來可真好，瓊斯先生，您的兄弟在哪兒呢?”

“您知道我們?cè)谵k公室里有非常忙，我們倆只能來一個(gè)，所以就擲幣來決定由誰來。”

“太有意思了!還那么有獨(dú)創(chuàng)性!那您贏了?”

“不，”年輕人心不在焉地說，“我輸了。”
