游泳者
The teacher told the class the story of a man who swam a river three times before breakfast. Johnny laughed.
老師給同學(xué)們講了一個小故事,說一個人早飯前要在河里游泳,橫渡三趟。約翰尼笑了。
"Do you doubt that a good swimmer could do that"asked the teacher.
老師問道:“你不相信一個游泳很好的人可以做到這個?”
"No,sir,"answered Johnny,"but I wonder why he did not swim it four times and get back to the side where his clothes were."
約翰尼回答說:“不是,老師,但我不明白他為什么不游四次,好回到他放衣服的那邊。”
