Unit10 Too Close for Comfort  危险的亲密接触

A guy goes to a barbershop for his weekly shave. While the barber is foaming him up, he mentions the problems he has getting a close shave around the cheeks.
有个家伙每个礼拜都会上理发店修面。理发师帮他涂泡沫时,他问怎样才能把脸颊上的胡子刮得更干净。

"I have just the thing," says the barber, who goes to his cabinet and comes back with a small rubber ball.
“我有个好东西,”理发师边说边去柜子那里拿了颗小橡胶球出来:

"Just place this on the inside of your cheek and you should be able to get a closer shave."
“只要把这颗球放进脸颊内侧,胡子就会刮得很干净了。”

The client places the ball in his mouth and the barber proceeds with the closest shave the guy has ever experienced.
于是这位客人把球放进嘴里,理发师继续修面时,他果然感受到刮胡刀和脸颊前所未有的亲密接触。

After a few strokes the client asks in garbled speech.
刮了几下后,客人用含糊不清的声音问道:

"And what if I swallow it?"
“如果我不小心吞下去怎么办?”

"No problem," says the barber.
“没关系,”理发师说。

"Just bring it back tomorrow like everyone else does."
“明天再拿来就好了,反正别人也都是这样。”
