我妻子让我这样做的

Standing at the Pearly Gates of Heaven, Martinnoticed signs pointing to two paths. One wasmarked "Women" and the other marked "Men".

站在天国之门前，马丁注意到两块标牌分别指向两条路：一块上书“女人”，另一块上书“男人”。

He took the path assigned to men and then cameupon two more gates.

马丁选择了男人的那条路，来到两扇门前。

The right-hand gate had a sign that read "Men Who Were Dominated by Their Spouses"; theother gate read "Men Who Were Boss and Dominated Their Spouses".

右边的门上有一块牌子上写着“受妻子支配的男人”;左边的门上写着“支配妻子的男人”。

The first gate had an endless line of guys waiting, but only one little guy stood before the maledomination gate.

右边的门前排了长长的一队，而左边的门前就只站着一个小个子。

Martin was undecided, so he walked up to the little guy standing all alone and asked, "Why areyou standing at this gate?"

马丁拿不定主意，就走到孤零零站着的小个子跟前问道：“你为什么站在这扇门前?”

The smallish fellow replied, "I haven't a clue. My wife told me to do stand here."

小个子答道：“我也不知道。我妻子让我站这儿的。”
