A man accidentally slipped on a banana peel（香蕉皮） and performed a very funny fall. He was not hurt, but had his dignity somewhat ruffled¹.

 

When he got better a moment later, he found a number of people standing² round in a circle. He said angrily, "What are these idlers doing here.?"

 

"They are not idlers," explained his friend. "This man is a doctor. He wants to look you over." That man is a lawyer. He is ready to file suit for you. And a producer of comic films is waiting for you to sign a contract agreeing to work for him."

 

有个人不小心踩到一块香蕉皮上，滑到的样子非常滑稽，引人发笑。他没有受伤，只是有点难情。

 

过了一会儿他感觉好些了的时候，发觉有好几个人围着他站成一圈。他很不高兴地说：“这些闲人在这里干什么呢？”

 

他的朋友解释说：“他们不是闲人。这个人是医生，他想给你检查一下。那个人是律师，他准备为你起诉。另一个人是喜剧电影的制片人，他在等你和他订一个同意去给他拍片的合约。”
