Winston Churchill was Prime Minister of Great Britain during World War II. He was a fat and short man. George Bernard Shaw was a famous writer. He was
tall and lean(瘦的) . Both of them were humorists.
When they met at a reception, Churchill said to Shaw with a smile, Mr. Shaw, when people see you, they must think there is a famine(饥荒) in our country. Yes, said Bernard Shaw, but they must think you are responsible for it.

一次,他们在一个招待会上碰面了。丘吉尔微笑着对肖伯纳说:肖伯纳先生,人们看到您,一定以为我们国家正在闹饥荒。对,肖伯纳回答:但他们一定认为这是您造成的。
