Not to Lose the Money
"Dick,"said the mother to her little boy, "take the pitcher out of the cupboard and get some beer. Here is the money, and don't lose it as yesterday." "I shall not lose it today, mother."Dick took the pitcher and went to the ale-house. "I want three penny worth of beer,"he said. The ale-house man filled the pitcher and asked him: "Where are your three pence?" "I put them into the pitcher not to lose them."answered Dick.
别把钱丢了
母亲对她的孩子说:"迪克,去把碗橱里的大水罐取来,然后去买些啤酒,钱在这里,别再像昨天那样把钱给丢了.""我今天不会再把钱丢了,妈妈."迪克拿着水罐去了啤酒店."我要买三便士啤酒."迪克说.啤酒店老板往大水罐里装满了啤酒,然后问他:"你的三便士钱呢?"迪克回答说:"我把它们放进大水罐里了,免得丢失."
