Английский шутя. Английские и американские анекдоты для начального чтения (ASCII-IPA)

An airline captain (командир самолета) was breaking in a very pretty new blonde stewardess (обучал очень хорошенькую блондинку — новую стюардессу; to break in — дрессировать, укрощать; дисциплинировать). The route they were flying (маршрут, по которому они летели) had a stay-over in another city (имел остановку в другом городе), so upon their arrival (так что, по их прибытии), the captain showed (показал) the stewardess the best place for airline personnel to eat (лучшее место для персонала, где поесть), shop (сделать покупки) and stay overnight (и остановиться на ночь).

The next morning (на следующее утро) as the pilot was preparing the crew (когда пилот готовил экипаж) for the day's route (к дневному маршруту), he noticed (заметил) the new stewardess was missing (не хватает новой стюардессы). He knew which room she was in at the hotel (он знал, в каком номере она была /to know-knew-known/) and called her up (позвонил ей) wondering what happened to her (недоумевая, что с ней случилось).

She answered the phone (она взяла трубку: «ответила по телефону»), sobbing (всхлипывая), and said she couldn't get out of her room (и сказала, что не может выйти из своего номера).

"You can't get out of your room?" the captain asked, "Why not? ("почему нет")"

The stewardess replied, "There are only three doors in here (здесь только три двери)," she cried (плакала), "one is the bathroom (одна — ванная), one is the closet (одна - /стенной/ шкаф), and one has a sign on it that says (а на одной вывеска, табличка, которая гласит),

'Do Not Disturb'! (не беспокоить)"

Do Not Disturb!

A young man hired by a supermarket reported for his first day of work (молодой человек, нанятый супермаркетом, явился для своего первого дня работы; to report — доложить, рапортовать; явиться, предстать). The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile (менеджер встретил его теплым рукопожатием и улыбкой), gave him a broom (дал ему метлу) and said (и сказал), "Your first job will be to sweep out the store (твое первое задание будет подмести в магазине)."

"But I'm a college graduate (но я выпускник колледжа)," the young man replied indignantly (ответил возмущенно).

"Oh, I'm sorry (сожалею). I didn't know that (я этого не знал)," said the manager. "Here, give me the broom (давай-ка мне сюда метлу) - I'll show you how (я покажу тебе, как)."
