谨慎先生
Mr. Mack was a very careful man. He dressed carefully, he spoke carefully and he moved carefully. He was careful in everything he did. He was such a careful man that people called him Mr. Careful.
When Mr. Mack spoke he always made very exact statements. His statements were so careful that they sometimes made people laugh.
One day Mr. Mack was travelling in a train with his friend Mr. Wild. As they passed a flock of sheep near the railway line Mr. Wild said,"Those sheep have just been shorn."
" They have been shorn on this side, at any any," said Mr. Mack.
麦克先生是个非常谨慎的人。他穿衣谨慎,说话谨慎,行动也谨慎。不管做什么事他都谨慎。他是如此之谨慎,以至人们都称他为“谨慎先生”。
麦克先生说话用辞总是非常准确。他如此谨慎的话常常引得人们发笑。
有一天,麦克先生和朋友怀尔德先生一起乘坐火车旅行。他们看见在铁路附近有一群羊闪了过去。这时怀尔德先生说:“这些羊刚剪过”
“至少,这一面是剪过的,”麦克先生说。
