A Good Boy

     Little Robert asked his mother for two cents. "What did you do with the money I gave you yesterday?" 

    " I gave it to a poor old woman," he answered. 

    " You're a good boy," said the mother proudly. "Here are two cents more. But why are you so interested in the old woman?"

    " She is the one who sells the candy."

好孩子

    小羅伯特向媽媽要兩分錢(qián)。 “昨天給你的錢(qián)干什么了？” 

   “我給了一個(gè)可憐的老太婆，”他回答說(shuō)。“你真是個(gè)好孩子，”媽媽驕傲地說(shuō)。

   “再給你兩分錢(qián)?？赡銥槭裁磳?duì)那位老太太那么感興趣呢？” 

   “她是個(gè)賣(mài)糖果的。”
