三聲口哨

　　I promised my girlfriend a gold necklace for her birthday, but when the jeweler quoted a price for one we liked, I let out a long, low whistle. And how much are they then? I asked, pointing to another tray.

　　You, sir, replied the jeweler, about three whistles.

　　三聲口哨

　　我答應(yīng)過(guò)我的女朋友過(guò)生日進(jìn)送她一條金項(xiàng)鏈?？墒钱?dāng)珠寶商報(bào)出我們看中的那條項(xiàng)鏈的價(jià)格時(shí)，我低低地打了個(gè)長(zhǎng)口哨。那這條項(xiàng)鏈多少錢呢?我指著另一個(gè)盤子里的項(xiàng)鏈問(wèn)。

　　先生，對(duì)你來(lái)說(shuō)，珠寶商答道，大約值三聲口哨。
