No, sir, but you said yesterday that everything you told me went inone ear and out the other, so I am trying to stop it.“孩子,你為什麼用棉花塞住耳朵?它感染了嗎?”“沒有,老師。可是你昨天說你告訴我的知識都是一個耳朵裡進,一個耳朵裡出,所以我要把它堵在裡面。”

Twenty dollars! Why, I understand you to say that you charged onlyfour dollars for such work!
Yes, but this youngster yelled so terribly that he scared four otherpatients out of the office.”“對不起,夫人,為您孩子拔牙我要收取20美元。”“20美元!為什麼?不是說好隻要4美元。”“是的,但是你的孩子大喊大叫,把另外四個病人吓跑了。”
