1.QUESTION: How to spell COW in thirteen letters?

 ANSWER: SEE O DOUBLE YOU

W这个字母的念法是double u[ˈdʌb(ə)ljuː],顺便一提,在法语中W读double v,感觉还是法国人的念法比较正确? (感觉双“V”更加形象哈哈哈)

小茶第一次看到这个问题的时候将spell误以为是解释的意思,所以还是有必要重新查阅一下这个我们以为很熟悉的单词spell。

Spell sth out解释明白;讲清楚

(1)to explain sth in a simple, clear way

eg:You know what I mean—I’m sure I don’t need to spell it out.

(2)to say or write the letter of a word in a right order用字母拼;拼写

eg:How to spell COW in thirteen letters?(如何用十三个字母拼写Cow?)

2.QUESTION: A man worked for a high security institution. One day he went to work only to find that he could not log in to his computer. His password did not work. He remembered that the passwords are reset every month for security reasons. So, he went to his boss and they had this conversation...

Man: "Hey boss, my password is out of date."

Boss: "Yes, that’s right. The password is different, but if you listen carefully you should be able to figure out the new one. It has the same amount of letters as the old password, but only four of the letters are the same. "

Man: "Thanks boss."

With that, he went and correctly logged in to his computer.

What was the old password?

ANSWER: The man's old password was "out of date".

His new password was "different".

男人说:“我的密码过期了”

老板说:“是的,密码是不一样。”

所以说原来的密码是“过期”了,

而新密码是“不一样”了

其他部分都是障眼法,

你看懂了吗?
