The young boy protested vigorously when his mother asked him to take his little sister along fishing. "The last time she came," he objected, "I didn't catch a single fish."
"I'll talk to her," his mother said, "and I promise this time she won't make any noise."
"It wasn't the noise, Mom," the boy replied, "She ate all my bait."
當(dāng)媽媽提出讓小男孩帶著妹妹一起去釣魚(yú)時(shí),他堅(jiān)決反對(duì)。“上次她跟著我,”他反對(duì)說(shuō),“我連一條魚(yú)都沒(méi)能釣上。”
“我會(huì)告訴她,”媽媽說(shuō),“我保證這次她不再發(fā)出響聲了。”
“媽媽,不是響聲,”男孩回答,“是她把所有的誘餌都吃了。”
