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."

So this guy goes into a pet store and sees a beautiful parrot but it has a blue string handing from one foot and a red one from the other。 He thinks this is a little strange so he asks the shopkeeper what the strings are for。

有个人在宠物店发现了一只美丽的鹦鹉，但是它的一只脚上牵着蓝色的绳子，而另一只牵着红色的。这个人觉得有些奇怪，就去问店主绳子是做什么的?

“Well this is a highly trained parrot” the shopkeeper replies。 “If you pull the red string he talks in French， if you pull the blue string he talks in English”。

“噢，这是一只训练有素的鹦鹉。”店主回答道。“如果你拉动红绳子，它会讲法语，如果你拉动蓝绳子，它就讲英语”

“Wow” exclaims the man shopping， “That‘s really neat。 What happens if you pull them both at the same time?”

“哇塞，”这个人感到很惊讶。“太厉害了。那如果你同时拉呢?”

“I fall off my perch you idiot!” exclaims the parrot。

“我会从架子上跌倒的.!你个笨蛋!”鹦鹉回答道。

(Kangaroos and the Cage)

One day the staff members of a zoo called a meeting to discuss the problem--how to deal with the kangaroos that were found out of the cage. They came to the conclusion that the cage was placed too low and decided to raise it from one to two meters high. But the next day the kangaroos were still at large and they again raised the cage to three meters.

有一天，动物园的管理员们发现袋鼠从笼子里跑出来了， 于是开会讨论，一致认为是笼子的高度过低，所以他们决定将笼子的高度由原来的1米加高到2米。结果第二天他们发现，袋鼠还是跑到外面来，所以他们又决定再将高度加高到3米。

Quite beyond their expectation the next morning they saw the kangaroos still free to go about. They were alarmed and determined to go to all the length by raising the cage to the height of ten meters.

没想到隔天居然又看到袋鼠全跑到外面，于是管理 员们大为紧张，决定一不做二不休，将笼子的高度加高到10米。

Later a giraffe, while chatting with some kangaroos, asked them, “Do you think they will go on raising your cage?”

一天，长颈鹿和几只袋鼠在闲聊，“你们看，这些人 会不会再继续加高你们的笼子?”长颈鹿问。

“Hard to say,” said a kangaroo, “if they continue forgetting to fasten the cage door.”

“很难说。”袋鼠说，“如果他们再继续忘记关门的话!”
