 　　Too Close for Comfort

　　第10单元 危险的亲密接触
　　A guy goes to a barbershop for his weekly shave. While the barber is foaming1 him up, he mentions the problems he has getting a close shave around the cheeks.
　　有个家伙每个礼拜都会上理发店修面。理发师帮他涂泡沫时，他问怎样才能把脸颊上的胡子刮得更干净。
　　"I have just the thing," says the barber, who goes to his cabinet and comes back with a small rubber ball.
　　“我有个好东西，”理发师边说边去柜子那里拿了颗小橡胶球出来：
　　"Just place this on the inside of your cheek and you should be able to get a closer shave."
　　“只要把这颗球放进脸颊内侧，胡子就会刮得很干净了。”
　　The client places the ball in his mouth and the barber proceeds with the closest shave the guy has ever experienced.
　　于是这位客人把球放进嘴里，理发师继续修面时，他果然感受到刮胡刀和脸颊前所未有的亲密接触。
　　After a few strokes the client asks in garbled2 speech.
　　刮了几下后，客人用含糊不清的声音问道：
　　"And what if I swallow it?"
　　“如果我不小心吞下去怎么办？”
　　"No problem," says the barber.
　　“没关系，”理发师说。
　　"Just bring it back tomorrow like everyone else does."
　　“明天再拿来就好了，反正别人也都是这样。”
