某日侍郎、尚书、御史三个高官走在路上,看见一只狗从三人面前跑过。
御史藉机会问侍郎:『是狼是狗?』(侍郎是狗)
侍郎脸都绿了:『是狗。』
尚书和御史都大笑:『何以知道是狗?』
侍郎:『看尾毛,下垂是狼,上梳是狗(尚书是狗)。』尚书脸也歪了。
侍郎:『也可以从食性看。狼是肉食,狗是遇肉吃肉、遇屎吃屎(御史吃屎)!』
Quick Thinking
One day,Tony met his friend,Alan,in the street.Tony was quite rich,but Alan was poor.The two boys walked along the street together.
They talked about many things.Tony liked to listen to the music and he told Alan about some new songs.Alan liked reading and he told Tony about some new books.
They had the same friends,and they talked about these,too.
Then Tony remembered somethings."I`lent you ten dollars last week,"he said,"Can you give it back to me?"
"I`m very sorry,Tony,"Alan said,"I forgot about it."
He thought about this money for a minute.Then he said,"I haven`t got any money today.I`ll pay you back tomorrow."
"All right,"Tony said,"I can wait any another day."
At that moment a man ran up.He had a knife in his hand.Alan and Tony were afraid.He was a dangerous man.
"Give me your money,"he said to Tony.
Tony took out his wallet and gave it to the thief.
The thief took out the money and threw the wallet on to the ground.
"Now you give me your money,"he said to Alan.
Alan thought quickly.He took out his wallet, but he did not give it to the thief.He give it to Tony and said,"I owe you some money,Tony.Here it is."
