背诵为王第一册第51课:A Duck and a Shop Clerk “鸭子和店员”
A duck walked into a store and asked the clerk, 'Do you have any grapes?' The clerk said no, and the duck left. The next day, the duck returned and asked, 'Do you have any grapes?' The clerk again said no, and the duck left. The day after that, the duck walked into the store again and asked, 'Do you have any grapes?' The clerk shouted at the duck, 'You've come in here the past two days and asked if we had any grapes. I told you no every time that we don't have any grapes! If you come back in here again, and ask for grapes, I'll nail your webbed feet to the floor!' The duck left, and returned the next day. This time he asked, 'Do you have any nails?' The clerk replied no, and the duck said, 'Good! Got any grapes?'
一只鸭子走进商店,他问店员:“有葡萄吗?”店员说没有,鸭子离开了。第二天,鸭子又回来问:“有葡萄吗?”店员再次说没有,鸭子又离开了。再后一天,鸭子又走进商店问:“有葡萄吗?”店员对着鸭子大叫:“过去的两天你都到这里来问有没有葡萄。我每次都告诉你我们这里没有葡萄。要是你以后再来问有没有葡萄,我就把你的脚蹼钉在地板上!”鸭子离开了,但是第二天他又来了。这次他问:“有钉子吗?”店员回答:“没有。”鸭子说:“太好了!那有葡萄吗?”
