It was the first day of school. A new student, the son of a Japanese businessman, took his seat in the classroom of Grade 4. The teacher soon came to the classroom and said, “Let's begin by going over the American history we have learnt. Who said ‘ Give me liberty (自由), or give me death’ ?”
What she saw were only blank faces except Timmy's. He held up his hand and then said, “Patrick Henry, 1755. ”“Good.” said the teacher, “Who said ‘Government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish(死亡)from the death’ ?”
There was no answer. Again Timmy raised his hand and said, “Abraham Lincoln. 1863. ”
The teacher said to the class, holding back her anger, “ You should be ashamed of yourselves. Timmy, who is new to come, yet knows more about the history.”
As she turned to write something on the blackboard, she heard a whisper, “Damned(该死的)Japanese.”
“Who said that?” she asked.
Timmy put his hand up,“Tom, in the second row, 1998.” he said.
