　　英文笑话： a better dishwasher

　　Mrs Williams lived in a small street in London, and now she had a new neighbour.

　　Her name was Mrs Briggs, and she talked a lot about her expensive furniture, her beautiful carpets and her new kitchen.

　　"Do you know," she said to Mrs Williams one day, "I've got a new dishwasher1. It washes the plates and glasses and knives and forks beautifully."

　　"Oh? " Mrs Williams answered." And does it dry them and put them in the cupboard, too ?"

　　Mrs Briggs was surprised. "Well," she answered, "the things in the machine are dry after an hour, but it doesn't put them away, of course."

　　"I've had a dishwasher for twelve and a half years," Mrs Williams said.

　　"Oh?" Mrs Briggs answered, "And does yours put the things in the cupboard when it has washed them?"

　　She laughed nastily2. "Yes, he does," Mrs Williams answered."He dries the dishes and puts them away."
