2011-10-13来源:sina

1.The Might-Not-Have-Happened Comeback 不该发生的反驳

This final comeback needs no explanation nor introduction. One only needs to read the interview excerpt for him/herself to understand its greatness.
最后一个最佳反驳不需要解释也不需要介绍,你只要自己读读下面的采访摘要,就会明白这个反驳有多棒:

Female Interviewer: So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?
女采访者:斯格罗夫将军,这些年轻孩子来基地参观的时候,你准备教他们些什么呢?

General Cosgrove: We’re going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting.
斯格罗夫将军:我们会教他们攀岩、划艇、射箭还有射击。

Female Interviewer: Shooting! That’s a bit irresponsible, isn’t it?
女采访者:射击?这会不会不太保险啊?

General Cosgrove: I don’t see why, they’ll be properly supervised on the rifle range.
斯格罗夫将军:不会啊,我们会在步枪打靶场密切指导他们的。

Female Interviewer: Don’t you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?
女采访者:你不觉得教小朋友射击是很相当危险的行为吗?

General Cosgrove: I don’t see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.
斯格罗夫将军:不会啊,在让他们摸抢之前,我们会教他们进行正确的步枪训练。

Female Interviewer: But you’re equipping them to become violent killers.
女采访者:你是在将他们训练成残暴的杀手。

General Cosgrove: Well, Ma’am, you’re equipped to be a prostitute, but you’re not one, are you?
斯格罗夫将军:呐,女士,别人也训练你成妓女,你现在也不是啊。
