It was the Christmas season and the judge was in a merry mood as he asked the prisoner, “What is your offense?” “I did my Christmas shopping early this year,” cried the prisoner. “There’s nothing wrong with that,” said the Judge. “How early were you doing this shopping?” “Before the store opened,” answered the prisoner 圣诞佳节到来，法官心情愉悦的问受刑人： “你做了什么坏事啊？” “我今年圣诞节购物早了些。”犯人回答。 “那并不事件坏事”，法官说：“到底多早之前啊？” “商店开门之前。”犯人答道。
