下面节选了Monty Python的Four Yorkshiremen一文中四个人争相比惨的片段,一起来欣赏一下他们的夸张吧~
A: You were lucky. We lived for three months in a brown paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six o'clock in the morning, clean the bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down mill for 14 hours a day week in, week out. When we got home, our Dad would thrash us to sleep with his belt!
“你算幸运了。三个月来,我们一直住在化粪池里的牛皮纸袋里。凌晨六点就要起床,洗干净纸袋,吃点酸腐的面包皮就得到磨坊连续上14个小时的班,日日如此。回家以后,老爸还会用皮带赶我们去睡觉。”
B: Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at three o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of hot gravel, go to work at the mill every day for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would beat us around the head and neck with a broken bottle, if we were lucky!
“土豪啊你!我们住在湖里,三点就要起床了,清理完湖,吃一把热石头就去磨坊上班了,每个月就挣两便士,回家以后,老爸还会用碎玻璃瓶打我们,而且这还算是幸运的呢!”
C: Well we had it tough. We used to have to get up out of the shoebox at 12 o'clock at night, and lick the road clean with our tongues. We had half a handful of freezing cold gravel, worked 24 hours a day at the mill for four pence every six years, and when we got home, our Dad would slice us in two with a bread knife.
