古时候,有一个以为自己很聪明,但是他总是干傻事。
One day, he saw a beautiful bell. It was at the top of a door. “Oh, how nice! I will take it home. ”he said to himself. He thought hard. Then he had a “good” idea. “Aha! I can plug my ears. I will not hear the ring.”
有一天,他看见一个漂亮的铃铛挂在一户人家的门上头。“啊,好漂亮!我要把它拿回家去。”他自言自语道。他使劲地想,然后想到了一个“好”主意。“哈!我把耳朵堵上,就听不到铃声了。”
He did so, but the bell rang. The owner opened the door and asked angrily, “What are you doing here?”
他这样做了,但是铃铛响了起来。主人打开门,生气地问道:“你在这儿干什么?”
