Persistance
Returning from a golf outing(远足，短途旅行) , my husband was greeted at the door by Sara, our four-year-old daughter. Daddy, who won the golf game? You or Uncle Richie?
Uncle Richie and I don't play golf to win, my husband hedged(避免作正面答复) . We just play to have fun.
Undaunted, Sare said, Okay, Daddy, who had more fun?
缠住不放
丈夫打完高尔夫球回来，我们四岁的女儿莎拉在门口迎了上去。爸爸，谁赢了高尔夫球比赛，是你还是理查叔叔?
我和理查叔叔打高尔夫球不是为赢，丈夫推诿说。我们打球只是为了好玩而已。
莎拉毫不气馁，又问：那么，爸爸，谁觉得更好玩呢?
Logic Reasoning
A fourth-grade teacher was giving her pupils a lesson on logic.
Here is the situation, she said. A man is standing up in a boat in the middle of a river, fishing. He loses his balance, falls in, and begins splashing and yelling for help.
His wife hears the commotion, knows that he can't swim, and runs down to the bank. Why do you think she ran to the bank?
A girl raised her hand and asked, to draw out all of his savings?
逻辑推理
小学四年级的'教师正在给学生们上一堂逻辑课。她举了这么一个例子：有这样一种情况，一个男人在河中心的船上钓鱼，突然失去重心掉进了水里。于是他开始挣扎并喊救命。
他的妻子听到了他的喊声，知道他并不会游泳，所以她就急忙跑向河岸。谁能告诉我这是为什么? 一个女生举手答道，是不是去取他的存款?
Professor Creighton
Creighton was going along a West end square when he saw a little fellow trying to reach the knocker of a large house.
"Can’t you reach up so high? "asked the professor kindly.
"No，Slr,”said the small youngster.
"Well, then, let me help you,”and the professor mounted the three steps and gave a splendid rat-tat.
The little boy glanced hastily at the gentleman of the cloth. "Come on,”he yelled，"we must both run away.”
克莱顿教授
当克莱顿教授沿着伦敦西区的一个广场走着的时候，他看见一个小家伙正试图抓住一所大房子的门环。
“你是不是够不到这么高的地方呢?”教授好意地问。
“是的，先生。”那小孩说。
“那好，让我来帮你。”教授登上那三级台阶，在门上重重扣了几下。
那个小男孩急忙给教授递上一个眼色。“快跑，”他喊着:“我们俩都得跑。”
