幽默学习第十六期

When my husband and I went to the local preschool to pick up our four-year-old son, Tony, we asked the teacher about his behavior. Smiling, she commented on how bright and attentive¹ he was. Proud that his behavior reflected positively² on our home life, we watched as Tony and a group of boys and girls played in the miniature kitchen area nearby. Suddenly, Tony stepped up to the toy refrigerator, flung open the door and exclaimed at the top of his lungs, "Hey! Anybody want a beer?"
