　　1.A school report 學校成績單

　　"English, poor. French, weak. mathematics, fair." and he gave a glance of disgust at the quaking lad(少年，小伙子).

　　"Well, Dad." said the son, "It is not as good as it might be, but have you seen that?" And he pointed to the next line which read, "health, excellent."

　　He took a book of natural history from the bookshelf, placed Bobby on his knee, opened the book and showed him a picture of a giraffe(長頸鹿).

　　"What's that, Bobby?"

　　"Horsey," said Bobby. Next of a tiger was shown, and Bobby said, "Pussy." Then Brown showed Bobby a picture of lion, and Bobby said, "Doggy." And when a picture of a chimpanzee was shown, Bobby said, "Daddy!"

　　One day neat closing time at 6:30, four young children arrived with bottles. Wanting to put a stop to this habit, I sternly2 asked each child if he was aware of the rules. Three shook their heads no, but the youngest said he knew. "Why then." I asked, "have you brought me these bottles?"

　　"I can't tell time yet." He said.

　　“我還不認識表呢!”他說。

　　5.Don't Argue with Children

　　A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.

　　The little girl replied, "Then you ask him."

　　那個小女孩說約拿(一位西伯來先知)就是被鯨魚吞掉的。

　　她的老師非常生氣，她再次告訴小女孩說：“從身體構造角度來講，鯨魚是不可能吞掉一個人的。”

　　她的老師問：“那么，假如約拿下了地獄怎么辦?”

　　那個小女孩回答：“如果是那樣的話，你就去問他。”

　　6.The boy and the snails

　　A farmer's boy went looking for snails, and, when he had picked up both his hands full, he set about making a fire at which to roast them; for he meant to eat them. When it got well alight and the snails began to feel the heat, they gradually withdrew more and more into their shells with the hissing noise they always make when they do so. When the boy heard it, he said, "You abandoned creatures, how can you find heart to whistle when your houses are burning?"

　　7.All Right

　　Hurrying my 11-year old daughter to school, I made a right turn at a red light when it was prohibited. "Uh-oh," I said, realizing my mistake. "I just make an illegal turn."

　　“我想那沒關系的，”女兒回答說：“我們后面的警車也同樣拐了彎。”

　　The wife wanted to travel around the world. The fairy waved her hand, and Boom! She had the tickets in her hand.
