Joe and Jeff worked for a factory.When this story happened,they were working around a very large house.Their job was to do the cleaning.It was not a difficult job,but sometimes it was a little dangerous,because they had to walk below where workmen were working.Often these workmen dropped something from the top of the house many meters high to the ground.
One morning Joe was working near the house with a cigarette (香烟) behind one of his ears.Suddenly somebody on the top shout “Look out!” But Joe did not “look out”.He looked up.And as he did so,a long knife fell off the top of the house.Luckily,the knife missed Joe's head,but it cut off one of his ears.At once he put his hand to one side of his head and cried out,“I've lost an ear.Help!Help!” Jeff ran up to help his friend.
“Look for my ear,” Joe told him,“it must be on the ground somewhere.” Jeff looked everywhere for the missing ear.At last he found an ear on the ground.He picked it up and carried it to Joe.“Here you are,” he said,“I've found it.” Joe looked at it.“No,that's not my ear,” he said.“Mine had a cigarette behind it.”

(一)A businessman walks into a bank in San Francisco and asks for the loan officer.He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for such a loan.
So the businessman hands over the keys to a Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank.Everything checks out,and the bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.An employee drives the Rolls into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.
Two weeks later,the businessman returns,repays the $5,000 and the interest,which comes to $15.41.
The loan officer says,"We are very happy to have had your business,and this transaction has worked out very nicely,but we are a little puzzled.
While you were away,we checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire.What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"
The businessman replied,"Where else in San Francisco can I park my car for two weeks for $15 bucks?"
(二)Once upon a time two brothers who lived on adjoining farms fell into conflict.
It was the first serious rift in 40 years of farming side by side,sharing machinery,and trading labor and goods as needed without a hitch.
Then the long collaboration fell apart.It began with a small misunderstanding and it grew into a major difference,and finally it exploded into an exchange of bitter words followed by weeks of silence.
One morning there was a knock on John's door.He opened it to find a man with a carpenter's toolbox."I'm looking for a few days work" he said.
"Perhaps you would have a few small jobs here and there I could help with?Could I help you?"
"Yes," said the older brother."I do have a job for you.Look across the creek at that farm.That's my neighbor,in fact,it's my younger brother.
Last week there was a meadow between us and he took his bulldozer to the river levee and now there is a creek between us.Well,he may have done this to spite me,but I'll go him one better.See that pile of lumber by the barn?
I want you to build me a fence - - an 8-foot fence -- so I won't need to see his place or his face anymore."
The carpenter said,"I think I understand the situation.Show me the nails and the post hole digger and I'll be able to do a job that pleases you."
The older brother had to go to town,so he helped the carpenter get the materials ready and then he was off for the day.The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring,sawing,nailing,and hammering.
About sunset when the farmer returned,the carpenter had just finished his job.The farmer's eyes opened wide,his jaw dropped.There was no fence there at all.
It was a bridge -- a bridge stretching from one side of the creek to the other!A fine piece of work handrails and all -- and the neighbor,his younger brother,was coming across,his hand outstretched.
"You are quite a fellow to build this bridge after all I've said and done."
The two brothers stood at each end of the bridge,and then they met in the middle,taking each other's hand.They turned to see
the carpenter hoist his toolbox on his shoulder.
"No,wait!Stay a few days.I've a lot of other projects for you," said the older brother.
"I'd love to stay on," the carpenter said,"but,I have many more bridges to build."
