英文幽默笑话：CD唱机

　　While shopping for my first CD player, I was able to decipher most of the technicalese on the promotional signs. One designation had me puzzled, though, so I called over a salesperson¹ and asked, What does 'hybrid² pulse D/A converter' mean? 

　　That means, she said, that this machine will read the digital information that is encoded on CDs and convert it into an audio signal - that is, into music. 

　　In other words this CD player plays CDs. 

　　Exactly. 

　　CD唱机 

　　在购买我的第一部CD唱机时，我能够解读推销标记上面的大多数技术语言。但是有一个标示却让我颇为迷惑，于是我叫过销售商，问道：‘混合脉冲D/A变换器’是什么意思？ 

　　它的意思是，她说，这个机器能够读CD碟上加码的数字信息，将它转换成声音信息－也就是说，转换成音乐。 

　　换句话说，这个CD唱机能够播放CD碟。 

　　正是如此。
