Two sailors who had just finished a long voyage went to their village and decided to have a few drinks in the bar there. When they had had enough, they came out into the street to look for something amusing to do, but it was very quiet place, and nothing interesting ever happened there, so they could not find anything.
But at last, while they were standing in the market place outside the bar, they saw a village boy coming slowly towards them. He was leading a donkey by a rope, so the sailors decided that they would have a joke with him.
"Hello," one of the sailors said to the boy,"why does your brother have to have a rope around his neck when he goes for a walk with you?"
"To stop him from joing the navy," the boy answered at once.
參考答案:两个水手刚结束了一段航行，决定回到他们小村子里的酒吧喝几杯。喝够了酒，他们走到街上想找点乐子，可是外面很安静，没什么有趣的事情发生，他们找不到什么好玩的。
不过最后，当他们站在酒吧外面的集市上时，一个乡村男孩慢慢地向他们走过来，他牵着一只猴子在前面领路。水手们决定耍一耍他。
“好啊，”一个水手对男孩说，“为什么你弟弟和你一起散步的时候脖子上要挂一条绳子呢？”
“阻止他加入海军啊。”男孩马上回答道。
