A Girl's Wish 小女孩的願望
On the way home after watching a ballet performance, the kindergarten teacher asked her students what they thought of it. The smallest girl in the class said she wished the dancers were taller so that they would not have to stand on their toes all the time.
在觀看完芭蕾舞表演回家的路上，幼兒園老師問學生的觀後感。班上最小的'女孩說，她希望舞蹈演員可以長得更高一點兒，那麼他們就不用整天踮著腳尖了。

瑪麗：媽媽，艾迪當然不會出聲了，因為我們倆正在玩爸爸回家遲到的遊戲呢，他扮演爸爸，我扮演你。

老師：仔細想想，說出理由來。
傑拉得：因為你如果把柑橘切成十分之五，那柑橘汁就損失太多了。
