Story 27  Two Holes for the Dogs
   My uncle has two dogs. One is big and the other is small. He likes them very much.
   One day, Mr. Smith came to visit him. When the friend saw two holes in the door, a large hole and a small hole, he was surprised and said, “My dear friend, why are there two holes in your door?” “Let my dogs come in and come out, of course,” Mr. Smith asked. “But why are there two holes? One is enough!” “But how can the big dog go through the small hole?” my uncle said.
   Sometimes a clever man may make such mistakes.

故事27   兩個狗洞
   我的叔叔有兩條狗。一只是大的，另一只是小狗的。他很喜歡它們。
   有一天，史密斯先生來看他。當這個朋友看見門口上有連個洞，一個是大洞和一個小洞時，他感到吃驚并說，“我親愛的朋友，為什么你的門上有連個洞？”我的叔叔回答說：“當然是讓我的兩條狗進出了。 ” 史密斯先生問到：“ 為什么門上要兩個洞呢？一個就足夠了。” 我叔叔說：“大狗怎能走小洞呢？”
  有時聰明的人可能會犯這樣的錯誤。
