说英语也要学学老外的幽默感

例一:一个男孩子为了追求一个在银行窗口工作的女孩子，便在递交存折的同时附上了一张小纸条。

"Dear M:
I have been SAVING this question in the hope that I might gain some INTETRST. If free Friday, would you care to DEPOST yourself beside me at a movie? I have taken into ACCOUNT that you maybe previously engaged; if so I will WITHDRAW my offer and hipe Saturday. At any RATE, your company would much enjoy, and I hope you will not ASSESS this as too forward. Check you late.       
                                                                                                                                        Sincerely B."

如此有创意的求爱方式，女孩子能不为之心动么。男孩子巧妙运用银行术语（deposit, withdraw, account, assess, check）与日常环境的不同意思，以独特的方式表达了自己的爱慕之情。

例二：英语习惯用语生动形象，用在一定的语境中，可以产生一语双关的效果。

--What weather does mice most dislike?

--When it is raining cats and dogs.

"Cats and dogs"是倾盆大雨的意思。这则幽默取其字面意思，猫狗都从天上掉下来了，老鼠自然不喜欢了。
