little boy bustled into a grocery one day with a memorandum in his hand.
一天，一個小男孩匆匆忙忙地走進了一家雜貨店，手里拿著一張清單。
"Hello, Mr. Smith,” He said. “I want thirteen pounds of coffee at 32 cents.”
“史密斯先生，你好。”他說道:“三毛二分錢一磅的咖啡，請給我十三磅。”
"Very good,” said the grocer, and he noted down the sale.
“好的。”雜貨店老板馬上把這筆生意記了下來。
"Anything e1se, Charlie?"
“還要別的什么不，查理?”
"Yes. Twenty一seven pounds of sugar at 9 cents.”
“要的。再要二十七磅糖，九分錢一磅的。”
"The loaf, eh? And what else?"
“面包要不要?還要什么?”
"Seven and a half pounds of bacon at 20 cents.”
“七磅半咸肉，二毛錢一磅的。”
"That will be a good brand. Go on.”
這肉是名牌呢。還有嗎?”
"Five pounds of tea at 90 cents; eleven and a half quarts of molasses at 8 cents a pint; two eight一pound hams at 21 cents, and five dozen jars of pickled walnuts at 24 cents a jar.”
“九毛錢一磅的茶葉，給我五磅;八分錢一品脫的糖漿要十一夸脫半;二毛一分錢的八磅大火腿要兩只，二毛四分錢一罐的腌核桃要五打。”
The grocer made out the bill.
雜貨店老板把帳單算了出來。
"It’s a big order,” he said. "Did your mother tell you to pay for it?"
“你買了很多東西，”他說:“你媽媽叫你現(xiàn)在把錢付清嗎?”
"My mother,” said the boy, as he pocketed the neat and accurate bill, "has nothing to do with this business. It is my arithmetic lesson and I had to get it done somehow.”
小男孩一面把那清楚準確的賬單放進口袋一面說:“這和我媽沒關(guān)系，這是我自己的算術(shù)作業(yè)，我總得想辦法把它做出來!”
