1. How many Catholic priests are required to screw a light bulb into its socket?
把电灯泡转入灯座需要几个天主教神职人员?
美国有许多关于换灯泡的笑话,他们借换灯泡这一简单的动作来嘲讽一些人。
Catholic [ˈkæθlɪk] n.天主教徙 priest [pri:st] n.神职人员 require [rɪˈkwaɪə(r)] v.需要
screw [skru:] v.把…转紧;性交 light bulb 电灯泡 socket [ˈsɒkɪt] n.灯座
2. Two. One to do the screwing, and one to hear the confession.
两个。一个转灯泡,一个听忏悔。
天主教是个极度保守的宗教,一旦觉得自己的言行举止或思想有罪(sin),就会去向神职人员忏悔(confess)。 "screw"是栺“将(灯泡)转人”,也有"性交”的意思。所以,当他们觉得描述自已行为的词汇也有“性交”的含义时.就觉得自己是有罪的,所以其中一个一边装电灯泡,一边向另外一个忏悔,因此装电灯泡需要两个神职人员。
confession [kənˈfeʃn]n.忏悔 sin [sɪn] n.罪
