不用找了Keep the Change
有一天天气闷热,我将冰淇淋舀进锥筒,告诉我的四个小孩,他们可以从我这里用拥抱“购买”一筒。于是,孩子们马上排起了队来购买。较小的三个孩子每人很快的抱了我一下,抓过冰淇淋筒就跑到外面去了。最后轮到排在队尾十年的大儿子来“买”冰淇淋时,他拥抱了我二下。“不用找了,”他笑着说。
One sweltering day, I was scooping ice cream into cones and told my four children they could buy a cone from me for a hug. Almost immediately, the kids lined up to make their purchases. The three youngest each gave me a quick hug, grabbed their cones and raced back outside. But when my teen-age son at the end of the line finally got his turn to buy his ice cream, he gave me two hugs. Keep the changes, he said with a smile.
只有一次Only Once
一位驯狮新手正在接受采访。“我知道你的父亲也是个驯狮手,”记者说。
“他过去是。”那人回答说。
“你真的把头伸进过狮子的嘴里吗?”
“只有一次,”那位驯狮新手说,“为了找我爸爸。”
A novice lion tamer was being interviewed. I understand your father was also a lion tamer, the reporter queried.
Yes, he was, the man replied.
Do you actually put your head in the lion’s mouth?
I did it only once, said the new tamer, to look for Dad.
