Christine 的生活點滴

(1)The world smartest man

Bill Gates, the Pope, and a Boy Scout were in a plane that was going to crash. They realized that there were only two parachutes.

"I'm the smartest man in the world," said Bill Gates. "The world needs smart men."He grabbed a parachute and jumped out.

"You are young," said the Pope to the Boy Scout. "You should take the last parachute."

"Don't worry!" said the Boy Scout. "The world's smartest man just jumped out with my backpack."

(2) A Good Teacher

One day, a teacher was attempting to teach the names of animals to a classof 5-year-olds. She held up a picture of a deer, and asked one boy, "Billy, what is this animal?". Little Billy looked at the picture with a disheartenedlook on his face and responded, "I'm sorry Mrs. Smith, I don't know.". The teacher was not oneto give up easily, so she then asked Billy, "Well, Billy, what does your Mommy call your Daddy?" Little Billy's face suddenlybrightened up, but then a confusedlook came over his face, as he asked, "Mrs. Smith, is that really a pig?"!
