　　This story is told of a browbeating counsel，who habitually endeavored to terrorize his opponent's witnesses.

　　One witness rather tended to preface his replies with lengthy explanations.

　　“I want‘yes’or‘no，’”thundered counsel.“There is no need for you to argue the point!”

　　“But there are some questions which cannot be answered by‘yes’or‘no，’”mildly responded the witness.

　　“There are not!” snapped the lawyer.

　　“Oh，” said the witness，“answer this then：Have you ceased beating your wife?”

　　“可是有些问题无法用‘是’或者‘不是’来回答。”这位证人温和地回敬他。

　　“不存在这样的问题!”律师厉声打断他。

　　“噢，”证人说：“那么请你回答这个问题：你停止打你老婆了吗?”
