英語笑話:As the Elegant Demeanor Was 風采依舊

Chaucer was over seventy, but he was not convinced of his age. At a time he boasted: "My physical strength is as strong as that I was young."The opposite person asked: "What do you rely on?" Chaucer said, "There is a big stone roller in my compound. I couldn't heave（舉起） it when was young, neither can I now."

喬叟年過六旬，仍不服老。一次，他對人誇耀說：“我和年輕時力氣一樣大。”對方問：“何以見得？”喬叟說：“我家大院裏有個碌碡，年輕時我舉不起來，現在我還是舉不起來。”
