时间：2011-06-23 09:15:30

（单词翻译:单击）

     A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question. The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath1, and stopped centimetres from a shop window.

    乘客轻拍了一下出租车司机的肩膀,想问个问题. 司机大叫起来, 车也失去了控制, 几乎撞上一辆公车, 还上了便道, 在还差几厘米就撞上商店橱窗时终于停了下来.
    The driver said, Look mate, don't ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me! The passenger apologized and said, I didn't realize that a little tap would scare you so much. The driver replied, Sorry, it's not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver. I've been driving a funeral van for the last 25 years.
    司机说,伙计,别再这么干了. 你把我吓破胆了!乘客抱歉地说, 我没想到拍你一下就吓成这样. 司机说,对不起,也不全是你的错. 今天是我第一天开出租. 以前25年里我一直开殡葬车.
