321　A Tax Collector 一名税务官

Little Johnny was playing with his father's wallet when he accidentally swallowed a quarter. He went crying to his mom. They took him to a doctor, who said that the quarter was impossible to remove without surgery. They consulted a specialist who was of the same opinion. Then came a man who said he could get the money out in a jiffy. He turned little Johnny upside down and patted him with great precision on the back of neck and, sure enough, the quarter rolled out. Everyone was amazed. The father said, “You must be an expert!” The man replied, “No sir. I'm just a tax collector.”

小强尼正在玩他爸爸的钱包。不小心把一枚硬币吞了下去。他哭着去找他的妈妈。他们带他去看医生。医生说不开刀不可能把硬币拿出来。他们又去咨询专科医生。专科医生也是这么说。这时候来了一个人。他说他一下就可以把钱拿出来。他把小强尼转成头朝下，并且非常精确地拍打他脖子的后面。毫无疑问，那硬币滚出来了。每一个人都惊呆了。孩子的爸爸说：“你一定是一位专家。”那人回答说：“不是。我只是一名税务官。”
