给你提供两篇挺逗的小笑话：（难词均有标注）
At a small parish (教区)in rural New England there lived a priest（牧师）, and several nuns（修女）. One day, one of the older nuns was noticing that the rugs （地毯,小垫子）in the church were beginning to fray（磨损）. She went to the priest and told him, "Father, I believe your rugs need to be replaced soon. "The priest thanked her for bringing it to his attention, and told her that he thought that she had been there long enough to refer to church property (财产) as 'our' not 'your.' Several days later, the same nun noticed that the hedge（树篱）needed to be trimmed（修剪）. She again went to the priest and told him, "Father, I've noticed that your..., I mean our hedge needs to be trimmed." The priest thanked her for again bringing something to his attention and this time asked her if she had seen his watch that had gone missing. She said she hadn't, but assured him she would look for it. A few days later the parish received word that the bishop（主教） would be coming for a visit. The entire parish was busy readying the church for the visit.
On the day the bishop arrived, the same nun came down the front stairs yelling, "Father! Father! I found your watch!" The bishop said, "How wonderful my child. Where did you find it?" After saying hello to the bishop, the nun turned to the priest and said, "I found it under our bed."

第二篇：
An American and a Japanese were sitting on the plane on the way to LA when the American turned to the Japanese and asked, "What kind of 'ese' are you?" The Japanese confused（迷惑的）, replied, "Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean." The American repeated, "What kind of 'ese' are you?"  Again, the Japanese was confused over the question. The American, now irritated（被激怒的）, loudly repeated, "Jeez, how tough is this -- what kind of 'ESE' are you?  Are you ChinESE or JapanESE or VietnamESE . . . ? The Japanese gentleman replied, "Oh, I see. I'm Japanese." "Well, OK, now we're getting somewhere," the American said. A little while later, the Japanese man asked, "Excuse me, but what kind of 'key' are you?" "What? What the hell（到底）do you mean?" the irritated American answered. "You know, a monKEY or a donKEY or just a typical YanKEE（美国佬）?"
