英文笑话:Tragedy  

Gee W. Bush visits an elementary school and the 4th grade class is in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asks the President if he would like to lead the class in a discussion of the word "tragedy." So Gee W. asks the class for an example of a boy stands up and says
"If my best friend who lives next door is playing in the street and a car es along and runs him over
that would be a tragedy.""No
" says Bush
"that would be an accident."A girl raises her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove off a cliff
killing everyone involved
that would be a tragedy.""I'm afraid not
" explains the President. "That's what we would call a Great Loss."The room goes silent. No other children volunteer. President Bush searches the room and asks
"Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?"Finally
in the back of the room
Johnny raises his hand and in a quiet voice he says
"If Air Force One
carrying Mr. and Mrs. Bush
was struck by a missile and blown up to smithereens（碎片）
that would be a tragedy.""That's right! And can you tell me WHY that would be a tragedy?" asks the President."Well
" Johnny says
"because it wouldn't be an accident and it sure as hell（很，非常） wouldn't be a Great Loss."
