英语笑话:The Cemetery Shortcut 为抄近路走墓地

　　Two men were walking home after a Halloween party and decided to take a shortcut through the cemetery just for laughs.

　　Right in the middle of the cemetery they were startled by a tap-tap-tapping noise coming from the misty shadows.

　　Trembling with fear, they found an old man with a hammer and chisel, chipping away at one of the headstones.

　　"Holy cow, Mister," one of them said after catching his breath, "You scared us half to death -- we thought you were a ghost! What are you doing working here so late at night?"

　　"Those fools!" the old man grumbled. "They misspelled my name!"

　　万圣节派对过后，两男人图个乐呵，打算抄近路穿过墓地回家。

　　走到墓地中央时，他们被从迷雾中传来的“答、答、答”声惊吓到了。

　　正当两人害怕得浑身颤抖时，他们看到是个老头拿着铁锤和凿子，在一块墓石上凿着什么。

　　“哇塞，先生，”其中一人喘了口气说，“你把我们吓得半死啊，我们还以为遇上鬼了呢!那么晚了你在这里做什么?”

　　“那帮白痴!”老头抱怨道，“他们把我名字拼错啦!”
