英语小幽默:English Office

茶点已经准备好了，请用。

您可以先去洗手间。

Mr. Zhang: Thank you, but before that I would like to go to the rest room.

谢谢，但是我想先去洗手间。

（张先生想在吃茶点前先去厕所，所以当提姆主任让他去洗手间时，他以为提姆再次请他去享用refreshments(茶点)。）

Tim: Of course. This way.

请往这边。

（提姆露出诧异的神色一边说着，一边告诉张先生厕所的位置。）

【Note】

“Would you like to refresh yourself?”“Would you like to wash your hands?”与“Would you like to go to the rest room?”是同样的意思，乃委婉地表示“你想不想上厕所？”之意。它另外还有“一鼓作气”的含义。
