A  man  in  the  street

(平凡的人)

Bill: Hi, guess what I’m going to tell you!

Susan: Come on. Don’t keep waiting.

Bill: Jenny is about to marry.

Susan: No kidding! Marry whom?

Bill: A man in the street.

Susan: Is she going to marry a man whom she meets in the street?

a man in the street所指的人是平凡且没有什么特别的人。在上面的对话中Bill想说,Jenny的丈夫是一个普普通通的人,而Susan只是从字面上理解,以为Jenny嫁了一个在街上随便认识的人,因此闹出了笑话。如果弄清了其真正意思, 就不会这样啦!
