英语幽默小故事:会讲法语的鹦鹉

So this guy goes into a pet store and sees a beautiful parrot but it has a blue string handing from one foot and a red one from the other。 He thinks this is a little strange so he asks the shopkeeper what the strings are for。

有个人在宠物店发现了一只美丽的鹦鹉，但是它的一只脚上牵着蓝色的绳子，而另一只牵着红色的。这个人觉得有些奇怪，就去问店主绳子是做什么的？

“Well this is a highly trained parrot” the shopkeeper replies。 “If you pull the red string he talks in French， if you pull the blue string he talks in English”。

“噢，这是一只训练有素的鹦鹉。”店主回答道。“如果你拉动红绳子，它会讲法语，如果你拉动蓝绳子，它就讲英语”

“Wow” exclaims the man shopping， “That‘s really neat。 What happens if you pull them both at the same time？”

“哇塞，”这个人感到很惊讶。“太厉害了。那如果你同时拉呢？”

“I fall off my perch you idiot！” exclaims the parrot。

“我会从架子上跌倒的！你个笨蛋！”鹦鹉回答道。
