（单词翻译:单击）

Bubba and Earl were in the local bar enjoying a beer when they decided1 to get in on the weekly charity raffle2. They bought five tickets each at a dollar a pop.

The following week, when the raffle was drawn3, each had won a prize. Earl won 1st prize, a year's supply of gourmet4 spaghetti sauce and extra-long spaghetti. Bubba won 6th prize, a toilet brush.

About a week or so had passed when the men met back in the neighborhood bar for a couple of beers. Bubba asked Earl how he liked his prize, to which Earl replied, "Great, I love spaghetti! How about you, how's that toilet brush?"

"Not so good," replied Bubba, "I reckon I'm gonna go back to paper."
