A tourist was visiting New Mexico and was amazed at the dinosaur bones lying about.

"How old are these bones?" the tourist asked an elderly Native American, who served as a guide.

"Exactly one hundred million and three years old.

"How can you be so sure?" inquired the tourist.

"Well," replied the guide, " a geologist came by here and told me these bones were one hundred million years old, and that was exactly three years ago.

一位遊客在新墨西哥遊覽。他對隨處可見的恐龍化石甚感驚奇。

“這些化石有多長的歷史?”遊客問一個上了年紀的當地美國人。他是作嚮導的。

“整整十億零三年了。”

“你怎麼這麼肯定?”遊客問道。

“哦,”嚮導回答道,“一個地質學家來過這兒,他告訴我說這些化石有十億年了,再加上那是整整三年前的事了。”
