金發女郎與綿羊【1】（笑話，譯文）
譯自法語by me, 英語由Gemini proofread過
The Blonde and the Sheep
A blonde decides to change her hair color. She is fed up with the rotten jokes about blondes, so she dyes her hair brunette. Afterward, she goes on vacation to the Pyrenees 【2】. On a beautiful sunny day, while hiking through the stunning mountains, she stops to admire a multitude of sheep scattered here and there, grazing peacefully. An old shepherd, sitting quietly in the shade of an oak tree, wishes her a good day. The beautiful brunette—pardon, the beautiful blonde disguised as a brunette—addresses the old man:
"Hello, shepherd. If I tell you the exact number of sheep around you, would you give me one?"
The question seems absurd to the shepherd, but amused, he accepts the challenge. The girl immediately shouts out a number:
"Four hundred twenty-two sheep!"
"Incredible," says the old man. "You won! Choose a sheep, miss."
"Great! I'll take this one, it’s the most beautiful!"
"Miss," the shepherd then says, "if I can guess your real hair color, can I have my dog back?"
金發女郎與綿羊
一個金發女郎決定改變自己頭發的顏色。她聽膩了看不起金發女郎的壞笑話，所以她把自己的頭發染成深褐色。然後她到比利牛斯山度假。一個大晴天，在漂亮的群山漫步時，她停下腳步被眼前的一群邊吃草邊行的綿羊所吸引。一個老牧羊人靜靜地坐在橡樹下乘涼，向她問好。這個深褐色頭發的女人--抱歉，這個漂亮的金發女郎化妝成的深褐色頭發的女人—向老牧羊人發問：
“你好，牧羊人。如果我能給你一個你的綿羊的總數，你能給我一隻綿羊嗎？”
牧羊人覺得這個問題太荒唐，卻很滑稽，就答應了。這個姑娘脫口而出一個數字：
“422隻！”
“簡直難以置信，” 老人說, “你贏了！小姐，你挑一隻綿羊吧。”
“真棒！我選中這隻，它是最漂亮的！”
“小姐，“ 於是牧羊人就說， ”如果我猜中你頭發的顏色，我能把我的狗要回來嗎？“

The Pyrenees (Pirineos, Pyrénées, etc.) are a major mountain range in southwest Europe forming a natural border between France and Spain, stretching from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean, and home to the independent nation of Andorra. Known for rugged landscapes, hiking, skiing, and unique cultures like the Basques, its highest peak is Pico de Aneto, and it's also famous for the large, white working dog breed, the Great Pyrenees.
