这些英语的有趣之处在于巧妙利用英文里面一词多义的现象,搞出一些有意思的句子来。
比如: The present is a good time to present the present. 这里用了三次“present”这个词。第一个是“目前”,第二次是“展示,呈现”,第三次是“礼物”的意思。全句意思是:“现在是呈现礼物的好时候”。

试试下面的句子:
1.We polish the Polish furniture.
2.He could lead if he would get the lead out.
3.A farm can produce produce.
4.The dump was so full it had to refuse refuse.
5.The soldier decided to desert in the desert.
6.The present is a good time to present the present.
7.At the Army base, a bass was painted on the head of a bass drum.
8.The dove dove into the bushes.
9.I did not object to the object.
10. The insurance for the invalid was invalid.
11. The bandage was wound around the wound.
12. There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.
13. They were too close to the door to close it.
14. The buck does funny things when the does are present.
15. They sent a sewer down to stitch the tear in the sewer line.
16. To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.
17. The wind was too strong to wind the sail.
18. After a number of Novocain injections, my jaw got number.
19. I shed a tear when I saw the tear in my clothes.
20. I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.
21. How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?
22. I spent last evening evening out a pile of dirt
