A Faithful Pupil

〔英語笑話〕——  “ Flowers need water,”said the teacher .

                “ Water your flowers every day or they'll die .”

                One mornimg Mother saw Marry out in the garden

                ane asked ,“ What are you doing there, Marry ?”

                “ Watering flowers,”said Marry .

                “ But it's raining!”

                “ Oh, it doesn't matter, Mum. I have an umbrella!”
                                     

下雨淋花

〔意譯成詩〕——  每天要淋花，花以水為生。

                下雨照樣淋，母笑傻天真。

                晴天和雨天，為何兩不分？

                答言有傘在，不怕雨淋身！
