For the final each dog was given a bag of bones to see what it could make. The doctor said, "Stethoscope, go!" The dog built a human skeleton.
The judges were ready to award the trophy1 right then. But, they decided2 to give the other dogs a try.
The engineer said, "Slide-rule, go!" The dog built a suspension bridge.
The judges were beside themselves. Which dog would they pick?
The lawyer said. "Loop-hole, go!" The dog ate the bones, got a percentage of all the tolls3from the bridge and screwed the other two dogs.
在一場(chǎng)狗秀的活動(dòng)中,人們要選出一只世界上最聰明的狗。有三只狗進(jìn)入了決賽,它們的主人分別是:醫(yī)生,建筑師和律師。
最后的比賽是給每只狗一包骨頭,看看它們能用這些骨頭做些什么。醫(yī)生說道:“聽診器,上!”這只狗搭了一個(gè)人體骨骼。
裁判們想立即給這只狗頒發(fā)獎(jiǎng)品,但是他們還是決定給每只狗一次機(jī)會(huì)。
建筑師說道:“滑尺,上!”他的狗建造了一座懸橋。
裁判們左右為難,到底該選哪一只呢?
律師說道:“鉆(法律)空子,上!”這只狗吃掉了骨頭,對(duì)那座橋征收了百分之百的稅,并向其他兩只狗進(jìn)行勒索。
