中文故事

一个幽默(humorous)的类星体(quasar),距离地球数十亿光年,决定开个玩笑。它向地球发射了一束光,意图支撑(bolster)其作为宇宙喜剧演员的声誉。然而,这束光却不幸包含了一个相当冒犯(offensive)的笑话。当笑话开始在我们的屏幕上出现(emerge)时,科学家们感到困惑。他们试图引用(cite)古代文献来解释,但没有一部提到星际脱口秀。他们最好的策略(tactic)就是关掉显示器,希望这个类星体能明白暗示。看来,这个类星体的幽默尝试确实有些太脱离现实了。

英语故事

A humorous quasar, billions of light-years away, decided to play a prank. It sent a beam of light towards Earth, intending to bolster its reputation as a cosmic comedian. However, the beam, unfortunately, contained a rather offensive joke. When the joke began to emerge on our screens, scientists were baffled. They tried to cite ancient texts for an explanation, but none mentioned intergalactic stand-up routines. Their best tactic was to simply turn off the display, hoping the quasar would get the hint. It seemed the quasar's attempt at humor was a bit too out of this world.
