把蛋糕切兩半,凱瑟琳
Dick was seven years old, and his sister, Catherine, was five. One day their mother took them to their aunt's house to play while she went to the big city to buy some new clothes.
The children played for an hour, and then at half past four their aunt took Dick into the kitchen. She gave him a nice cake and a knife and said to him, "Now here's a knife, Dick. Cut this cake in half and give one of the pieces to your sister, but remember to do it like a gentleman."
"Like a gentleman?" Dick asked. "How do gentlemen do it?"
"They always give the bigger piece to the other person." answered his aunt at once.
"Oh" said Dick. He thought about this for a few seconds. Then he took the cake to his sister and said to her: “Cut this cake in half, Catherine."
迪克七歲了,而他妹妹凱瑟琳才五歲。有一天,媽媽去大城市買點新衣服,就把他們扔姨媽家玩。
倆小孩玩了一個鐘頭后,到了四點半,姨媽把迪克領進廚房。姨媽給他一塊漂亮的蛋糕和一把刀,對他說:“來,把刀拿去,迪克。把蛋糕切兩半,拿塊給妹妹。不過記住啊,要做得像個紳士哦。”
“像個紳士?”迪克問,“紳士怎么做的?”
“紳士總是把大點兒的那塊分給別人。”姨媽隨即答道。
,才 “噢。”迪克應著,對這事琢磨了一小會兒。然后他把蛋糕拿給妹妹,對妹妹說:“把蛋糕切兩半,凱瑟琳。
