  One day Burton took his children to the zoo. He told them to be ready at two o'clock, but they weren't all ready then: little Tommy couldn't find his shoes. He could find his brown shoes, but he couldn't find his black shoes, and wanted to wear his black shoes to the zoo. At a quarter past two his brothers and sisters told him to wear his brown shoes. Their mother waved goodbye and told them to enjoy their trip to the zoo. Then she sat down to read a book in the empty, quiet house.

  When they got to the zoo, Burton told the children to stay with; he didn't want them to get lost in the zoo. Little Tommy asked his father to buy some food for the bears; but his father answered:“Look at that notice, Tommy. It tells us not to feed the animals.”

  “Why does it tell us not to feed the animals?”asked Tommy.

  “Because they get a lot of food already.”said Burton.“And people often try to give them the wrong food; that's bad for the animals.”

  At three o'clock the dolphin (海豚) show began. All the Burtons wanted to see it, so Mr. Burton bought seven tickets and took the children down to the dolphinarium(海豚馆). The dolphins did a lot of tricks: they jumped up into the air and flew through hoops (大铁圈) over the water; they caught rubber rings with their noses; and they played‘basketball’with red and yellow balls. The trainer blew his whistle when he wanted the dolphins to do something, and when they did it he gave them some fish.

  “How can the dolphins do all those tricks?”asked the little Tommy.

  “Because they are very intelligent (聪明的),”said his big brother.“They can understand when their trainer tells them to do something; and they like to do tricks (耍把戏). because he always gives them some fish when they do them.”

  “That's good,”said Tommy.“I like to do tricks too; why doesn't Father give me some candies (糖果) when I do them?”

A programmer and an engineer are sitting next to each other on a long flight from Los Angeles to New York. The programmer leans over to the engineer and asks if he would like to play a fun game. The engineer just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.

    The programmer persists and explains that the game is really easy and has a lot of fun. He explains, “I ask you a question, and if you don’t know the answer, you pay me $5. Then you ask me a question, and if I don’t know the answer, I’ll pay you $5.” Again, the engineer politely refuses and tries to get to sleep.

    The programmer, now somewhat agitated, says, “OK, if you don’t know the answer you pay me $5, and if I don’t know the answer, I’ll pay you $50!” This catches the engineer’s attention, and he sees no end to this torment(折磨) unless he plays, so he agrees to the game.

    The programmer asks the first question. “What’s the distance from the earth to the moon?” The engineer doesn’t say a word, but reaches into his wallet, pulls out a five dollar bill and hands it to the programmer. Now, it’s the engineer’s turn. He asks the programmer, “What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down on four?” The programmer looks up at him with a puzzled look. He takes out his laptop computer and searches all of his references. After about an hour, he wakes the engineer and hands him $50. The engineer politely takes the $50 and turns away to try to get back to sleep. The programmer, more than a little miffed, shakes the engineer and asks, “Well, so what’s the answer?” Without a word, the engineer reaches into his wallet, hands the programmer $5, and turns away and goes back to sleep.
