foyer门厅、休息室，step on踩到
笑话原文】
To be on the Safe Side
In a cinema, during a performance, one of the audiences gets up, making his way along the row of seats and going out into the foyer.
A few minutes later he returns and asks the man sitting at the head of the row.
"Excuse me, was it your foot I stepped on when I was going out a moment ago?"
"Yes, but it doesn't really matter. It didn't hurt at all."
"Oh, no, it isn't that. I only want to make sure that this is my row."
中文译文】
保证没走错
在一家电影院里，一名观众在演出期间站了起来，沿着他那排位子走到休息室去了。
几分钟后，他回到那排位子并问坐在首位的那位男士道：
“对不起，请问我刚才出去的时候是踩着你的脚吗?”
“是的，不过没什么关系，一点也不疼。”
“噢，不，我不是这个意思。我只是想确认一下这是不是我的那排位子。”
