Do You Know My Work
One night a hotel caught fire, and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes.
Two men stood outside and looked at the fire.
Before I came out, said one, I ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money. People don't think of money when they're afraid. When anyone leaves paper money in a fire, the fire burns it. So I took all the bills that I could find. No one will be poorer because I took them.
You don't know my work, said the other.
What is your work?
I'm a policeman.
Oh! cried the first man. He thought quickly and said, and do you know my work? No, said the policeman.
I'm a writer. I'm always telling stories about things that never happened.
一天晚上，一家旅馆失火，住在这家旅馆里的.人穿着睡衣就跑了出来。
两个人站在外面，看着大火。
在我出来之前，其中一个说，我跑进一些房间，找到了一大笔钱。人在恐惧中是不会想到钱的。如果有人把纸币留在火里，火就会把它烧成灰烬，所以我把我所能找到的钞票都拿走了，没有人会因为我拿走它们而变得更穷。
你不知道我是干什么的，另一个说。
你是干什么的?
我是警察。
噢!第一个人喊了一声，他灵机一动，说：那你知道我是干什么的?不知道。警察说。
我是个作家，我总是爱编一些从未发生过的故事。
