Fifteen Wisky Now!
第十五课 来杯威士忌
"I am as dry as a bone!
"我干透了！
Let's get some whiskey!" Larry the cowboy said to Harry as he brushed the dust of his pants and tied his horse to the post.
我们弄点威士忌吧！"牛仔拉里一面对哈里说，一边把裤子上的灰尘弹掉，把马系在木桩上。
"And I'm as dry as dust, " Harry replied while climbing down from his horse.
"我觉得枯燥无味。"哈里边从马上下来边回答说。
"This day is as good as done! There's a bar right over there.
"今天差不多结束了！那边就有一个酒吧。
As far as I know, they got whisky as cheap as dirt."
据我所知，他们的威士忌非常便宜。"
"That's fine as far as I'm concerned!" Larry replied with a laugh.
"对我来说那太好了！"拉里笑着答道。
The two cowboys wandered into the bar as if it was heaven.
两个牛仔信步进了酒吧，仿佛那里是天堂。
"Two whiskeys, barkeeper!" Larry yelled. " And make it fast!"
"老板，两杯威士忌！"拉里喊道。"快点儿！"
"There's no reason to yell, cowboy!
"牛仔，你那么嚷嚷可是没有道理。
As it is, I can hear as clear as a bell,"replied the barkeeper as he handed both cowboys their whiskeys.
实际上，我可以听得非常清楚，" 酒吧老板说。他把威士忌递给了两位牛仔。
They both downed the whisky in one long drink.
两人一饮而尽。
"Whew! Now I feel as fit as a fiddle!" Harry said.
" 哟，我现在觉得精神棒极了！"拉里说
"Who cares if my head is as clear as mud? Let's get another round!"
"谁会在乎我是否头脑不清楚呢？我们再来一杯！"
The rest of the story continued as follows:
下面的故事是这样的：
Larry and Harry drank all the whiskey at hand and became as cross as two sticks.
拉里和哈里把手边的威士忌都喝了，结果变得非常生气。
They started brawling and the barkeeper eventually threw them both out the door as far as he could.
他们开始打起架来，最后酒吧老板把他们扔到门外，有多远就扔多远。
As for Larry and Harry, they woke up the next morning with horrible hangovers.
至于拉里和哈里，他们第二天早晨醒来时还醉的一塌糊涂。
They thought that meant they had a good night and went back to their ranches happier than ever!
他们以为那说明他们睡了个好觉，便比往日更高兴地回到了他们的牧场。
They didn't know that they would never be allowed in that bar again！
他们不知道他们再也不能踏进那家酒吧了！
