An Absent-Minded Professor

An Absent-Minded Professor A notoriously absent-minded professor was one day observed walking along the street with one foot continually in the gutter, the other on the pavement. A pupil meeting him said: “Good evening, professor. How are you?” “Well,” answered the professor, “I thought I was all right when I left home, but now I don't know what's the matter with me. I've been limping for the last half hour.” 有一天，人们看见一个有名的心不在焉的教授在路上走，他的一只脚一直踏在街沟里，另一只脚踩在人行道上。 一个碰见他的学生说：“晚安，教授。您怎么了？” “啊，”这位教授回答说，“我想我离开家的时候还挺好的，可是现在我不知道出了什么毛病。我已经一瘸一拐走了半个小时了。”
