2.One is made of plastic and is dangerous for children to play with... the other is used to carry things you buy.
一个是由塑料制成，而且给孩子玩的话很危险······而另一个是用来提买的东西的?
make之后若用of加原料，表示制成的成品仍保有原料的性质，如：This chair is made of wood.这椅子是用木头做成的。make之后若用from加原料，表示制成成品的原料性 质已经改变，如：This cake is made of flour.这蛋糕是由面粉制成的。

这个笑话在嘲讽迈克尔?杰克逊就像是塑料袋，由塑料制成：比喻他整形多次；给孩子玩很危险：嘲讽他的恋童癖。

这是美国常见的笑话形式，如：What's the difference between A and monkey? (A和猴子有什么不同？），这种问法所隐藏的含义通常是：A就是猴子。
