　　A Smart Parrot 聰明的鸚鵡

　　A curious guy goes to a pet shop to buy a parrot. There he sees a parrot with a red string tied to its left leg and a green string tied to it's right leg. He asks the owner the significance of the strings1. "Well, this is a highly trained parrot. If you pull the red string he speaks French; if you pull the green string he speaks German," replies the shop keeper.

　　有個人去寵物店買鸚鵡。在那里，他看見有只鸚鵡的左腿被紅線系住，右腿則被綠線系住。對此他感到不解，于是他問該店的老板，老板回答說：“這只鸚鵡受過特殊的訓(xùn)練。如果拉紅線，它就講法語，拉綠線，它則講德語。”

　　"And what happens if I pull both the strings?" our curious shopper inquires.

　　這個好奇的人接著問，“要是我兩條線都拉，會怎么樣呢？”

　　"I fall off my perch2 you fool!!" screeches3 the parrot.

　　“我就會掉下來了，你這個傻瓜��！”鸚鵡尖叫著說。
