Not so fast 別那麼急嘛
A pig and a chicken were walking by a church where a gala(歡慶的) charity event was taking place.
Getting caught up in the spirit, the pig suggested to the chicken that they each make a contribution.
"Great idea!" the chicken cried."Let's offer hem1 ham and eggs?"
"Not so fast," said the pig testily2. "For you, that's a contribution. For me, it's a total commitment."

The boy and the snails 男孩和蝸牛
A farmer's boy went looking for snails, and, when he had picked up both his hands full, he set about making a fire at which to roast them; for he meant to eat them. When it got well alight and the snails began to feel the heat, they gradually withdrew more and more into their shells with the hissing noise they always make when they do so. When the boy heard it, he said, "You abandoned creatures, how can you find heart to whistle when your houses are burning?"

Don't Argue with Children 不要和小孩爭論
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically1 impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.
The little girl stated that a whale swallowed Jonah.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated2 that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.
The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah."
The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him."
一個小女孩和她的老師正在談論有關鯨魚的事情。
她的老師說：“一頭鯨魚從身體構造的角度看，是不可能吞掉一個人的。因爲儘管鯨魚是一種非常巨大的哺乳動物，可它的嗓子非常小。”
那個小女孩說約拿(一位西伯來先知)就是被鯨魚吞掉的。
她的老師非常生氣，她再次告訴小女孩說：“從身體構造角度來講，鯨魚是不可能吞掉一個人的。”
那個小女孩說：“那等我到了天堂，就去問問約拿。”
她的老師問：“那麼，假如約拿下了地獄怎麼辦?”
那個小女孩回答：“如果是那樣的話，你就去問他。”
