英语笑话：A Good Joke

One American came to Russia to have a look and visit.

And there he saw all the secret police, and the people

were scared and didn't smile. (That was before; I don't

know how it is now.) So the American said,

"What's wrong?" He said to his friend, "What's that?

You dare not say anything. In America, we can criticize

the president and government anytime we want. We

are free to criticize them anytime, about anything."

So the Russian friend said, "Yeah, here we're also

free to criticize the American government and

its president any time."

有一个美国人去俄国考查访问，他看到很多秘密警察，

人民都很害怕，面无笑容。(这是以前的情况，现在

怎样我不知道。)所以他问朋友：「怎么回事？这算什么？

你们什么都不敢说。在美国，我们随时都可以批评政府

和总统，不管什么时候、对任何事情，都可以自由批评

他们。」那位俄国朋友说：「是啊，在我们这里，随时

也都可以自由批评美国总统跟政府。」
