I thoughtnobody wanted it and so I picked it up and took ithome."
一个人因谋杀罪被关进牢房。在监狱里，他问新来的犯人为什么被关进来。新来的犯人回答说：“我想我真是倒霉。几天前我觉得西瓜该浇水了，在去田里的路上，我在池塘边看到一根脏绳子，以为没人要了，便捡起来带了回家。”
"But it is not against the criminal law of the federal government to pick up a piece of rope andtake home!"
“但是，捡一根绳子并没有触犯联邦政府的刑法啊!”
"I told you I had bad luck, didn't I?" The man sighed.
“我告诉过你我倒霉了吧?”那个人叹了口气。
"Why didn’t you ask a lawyer to defended."
“那你怎么没找律师为你辩护呢?”
"The trouble is that I didn't notice there was an ox at the other terminal of that rope."
“麻烦的就是我当时没有注意到绳子的那一头还有一头公牛。”
