心不在焉的马克·吐温

心不在焉的马克·吐温

The famous American writer Mark Twain was well-known for his absent-mindedness.

One day, when he was riding in a train, the conductor asked him for his ticket。

Mark Twain looked for the ticket in all his pockets, but he didn't find it. At last, the conductor knew the writer, so he said: "It doesn't matter. Show me your ticket on your way back. And if you don't find it, there is no trouble."

"Oh, but I must find the dammed thing, otherwise how will I know where I am going?"

美国著名作家马克吐温以心不在焉著称于世。

一天，他乘火车去旅行，列车员找他查票。

马克·吐温翻遍了所有衣服的口袋，也没有找到车票。正好列车员认识这位作家，便说：“真的没什么大不了的。回来时你把车票给我看看好了。万一找不到，也没有多大关系。”

“哦，我必须找到这该死的东西，不然我怎么知道自己要上哪儿去呢?”
