填空题
| The telephone rang while Mrs. Hunt was cooking
lunch. Her son Bruce went to answer it. His aunt said she was coming to see them
with her daughter that afternoon. Mrs. Hunt was happy because she hadn’t seen
her sister for several months. She knew the girl liked bananas very much,
but she was busy in the kitchen and couldn’t go to buy some for her. She gave
some money to Bruce and said, "Go and buy two kilos of bananas in the
shop." Bruce liked bananas, too. He went out happily. Thirty minutes later he came back with a bag in his hand. Mrs. Hunt weighed (称) the bananas and found they were half a kilo short. She took the bag to the shopkeeper and said, "I sent my little son for two kilos of bananas, but you gave him only one and a half kilos!" "Have you weighed your little son yet, Madam" asked the shopkeeper, "My scales (秤) are all right!" |
