你现在已经和我们生活在一起?
A young mother believed that it was very wrong to waste any food when there were so many hungry people in the world.
One evening, she was giving her small daughter her tea before putting her to bed. First she gave her a slice of fresh brown bread and butter, but the child said that she did not want it like that. She asked for some jam on her bread as well.
Her mother looked at her for a few seconds and then said, "When I was a small girl like you, Lucy, I was always given either bread and butter, or bread and jam, but never bread with butter and jam.
Lucy looked at her mother for a few moments with pity in her eyes and then said to her kindly, "Aren't you pleased that you've come to live with us now?"
一位年轻的母亲认为,浪费食物是非常错误的,世界上还有许多受饥饿的人。一天晚上她先给她一片新鲜的黑面包和黄油,但孩子说她不喜欢这样。她问些果酱涂在面包好。母亲看了女儿几秒钟,然后说,“当我像你是一个小女孩,露西,我总是吃面包加黄油,或者面包加果酱,从来没有面包加黄油和果酱。露西看着她的母亲一会儿,可惜在她的眼睛,然后她柔声说,“难道你不高兴,你现在已经和我们生活在一起?”
