英语笑话：Thanksgiving Football 感恩节与橄榄球赛

Thanksgiving Football

The pro football team had just finished their daily practice session when a large turkey came strutting onto the field. While the players gazed in amazement，the turkey walked up to the head coach and demanded a tryout. Everyone stared in silence as the turkey caught pass after pass and ran right through the defensive line. When the turkey returned to the sidelines，the coach shouted，“You’re terrific！Sign up for the season，and I’ll see to it that you get a huge bonus.”“Forget the bonus，”the turkey said.“All I want to know is，does the season go past Thanksgiving Day？”

感恩节与橄榄球赛

一支职业橄榄球队刚开完每日训练例会，一只大火鸡大摇大摆地来到了球场。所有的队员都吃惊地盯着它，只见它走到主教练跟前，要求试训。火鸡在场上准确地接了一个又一个传球，突破防守线，大家都惊得目瞪口呆。火鸡回到边线附近，教练大喊：“你太厉害了！本赛季我要和你签约，并且保证给你一大笔奖金。”“先别提奖金，”火鸡说，“我只想知道本赛季的比赛是否会持续到感恩节之后？”
