A couple was going on vacation,but his wife was on a business trip.So he went to the destination first and his wife would meet him the next day.
一對夫婦要出門度假,但是妻子正在出差,因此丈夫先去目的地,妻子在第二天將和他會合。
When he reached his hotel,he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail.
他到了旅館后,決定給他妻子發一封簡短的電子郵件。
Unfortunately,when typing her address,he mistyped a letter and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher1’s wife whose husband had passed away only the day before.
倒霉的是,在打她的地址時,他打錯了一個字母,他的郵件發到了一個年老的牧師妻子的郵箱,這位牧師前一天才剛剛去世。
When the sad widow checked her e-mail,she took one look at the monitor,let out a scream, and fell to the floor in a dead faint2.
當悲傷的寡婦查看郵件的時候,一看到顯示屏就發出一聲尖叫,然后就摔倒在地上不省人事。
At the sound,her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen∶
聽到聲響,她的家人沖進房間,看到了顯示屏里的那封郵件:Dearest Wife,
Just got checked in.Everything prepared for your arrival tomorrow.
P.S.Sure is hot down here.
親愛的妻子:
我剛剛入住。我已做好準備迎接你明天到來。
另附:這里真熱。
