Our son, at age five, had a fascination for motorcycles. The sight of one would always bring forth squeal of delight, accompanied by excited remarks of "look at that! Look at that! I'm going to have one of those someday." His dad's response always was "Not as long as I'm alive."
One day, while our son was talking to a little friend, a motorcycle passed by. He excitedly pointed it out to the boy and exclaimed, "Look at that!Look at that! I'm getting one of those as soon as my dad dies."
我兒子,剛五歲,對摩托車入了迷。一看見摩托車總是發(fā)出歡樂的尖叫聲,伴之以興奮地評論:“看吶!看吶!有朝一日我也會有一兩那樣的摩托車。”他爸爸的回到總是“只要我還活著就不行。”
一天,我兒子正和一位小朋友說話,一輛摩托車從傍邊經(jīng)過,他興奮地指著離去的摩托車,向那個男孩感嘆道:“看吶!看吶!只要我爸爸一死,我也能得到那樣的一輛摩托車。”
