A patron in Montreal cafe turned on a tap in the washroom and got scalded. "This is an outrage," he complained. "The faucet 1 marked C gave me boiling water." 
蒙特利尔自助餐厅的一位顾客拧开盥洗室的龙头,结果被水烫伤了。“这太可恶了,”他抱怨道,“标着C的龙头流出的是开水。”(顾客以为是cold)
"But, Monsieur, C stands for chaude - French for hot. You should know that if you live in Montreal." 
“可是,先生,C代表Chaude-法语里代表‘热’。如果您居住在蒙特利尔的话就得知道这一点。”
"Wait a minute," roared the patron. "The other tap is also marked C." 
“等等,”那位顾客咆哮一声,“另外一个龙头同样标的是C。”
"Of course," said the manager, "It stands for cold. After all, Montreal is a bilingual city." 
“当然,”经理说道:“它代表冷。毕竟,蒙特利尔是个双语城市。”
