Misunderstandings
A man, wearing dirty clothes, with dirty hair and only 35 cents in his pocket, got on a bus and
headed straight for the restroom. He thought that if he hid in the restroom, he could ride to New
York without paying. But a passenger at the back of the bus saw him. She tapped (拍) the person
in front of her on the shoulder and said, “Theres a bum in the restroom. Tell the bus driver. That
passenger tapped the person siting in front of him. Tell the bus driver theres a bum in the
restroom, he said.
The message was passed from person to person until it reached the front of the bus. But
somewhere along the way, the message changed. By the time it reached the bus driver, it was not
“Theres a bum in the restroom but Theres a bomb (炸弹) in the restroom. The driver pulled
оvеr tо the ѕіdе оf the highway (高速公路) аt оnсе аnd саllеd thе роlісе. Whеn thе роlісе аrrіvеd,
they told the passengers to get off the bus and stay far away. Then they closed the highway. That
soon caused a 15-mile-long traffic jam. With the help of a dog, the police searched the bus for two
hours. Of course, they found no bomb.
Two similar-sounding English words also caused trouble for a man who wanted to fly from
Los Angeles to Oakland, California. His problems began at the airport in Los Angeles. He thought
he heard his flight announced, so he walked to the gate, showed his ticket, and got on the plane.
Twenty minutes after take-off, the man began to worry. Oakland was north of Los Angeles, but the
plane seemed to be heading west, and when he looked out his window all he could see was ocean.
Is this plane going to Oakland? he asked the flight attendant. “No”, she said. Were going to
Auckland - Auckland, New Zealand.
Because so many English words sound similar, misunderstandings among English- speaking
people are no
