阅读理解。 A Scotsman and an Englishman
| 阅读理解。 |
| A Scotsman and an Englishman lived next door to each other. The Scotsman owned a hen and each morning he would look in his garden and pick up his hen’s egg for breakfast. One morning he looked into his garden and saw that the hen had laid an egg in the Englishman’s garden. He was about to go next door when he saw the English-man pick up the egg. The Scotsman ran up to the English-man and told him that the egg belonged to him because he owned the hen. The Englishman disagreed because the egg was on his property(财产). They argued for a while until finally the Scotsman said, "In my family we normally settle disputes by the following actions: We kick each other and we compare the time how long it takes us to get back up. Whoever gets up quicker wins the egg." The Englishman agreed to this, so the Scotsman found his heaviest pair of boots and put them on. He took a few steps back, then ran toward the Englishman and kicked as hard as he could in his stomach. The Englishman fell to the floor, holding his stomach and howling in pain for 10 minutes. Eventually the English-man stood up and said, "Now it’s my turn to kick you." At this time, the Scotsman said, "Aye Lad, maybe you should just keep the egg." |
