Regret
Little George was crying one day, and his dad asked him why.
“I’ve lost a nickel,” sobbed George.
“Never mind,” said his dad kindly. “ There’s another nickel for you.”
At which George howled louder than ever.
“Now what is it? ” asked his dad.
“ I wish I’d lost a dime! ”
后悔
有一天,小乔治在哭,他爸爸问他为什么哭。
“我丢了5分钱,”乔治哭道。
“不要紧,”他爸爸和蔼地说,“再给你5分钱得了。”
小乔治这下哭得比刚才更厉害了。
“又怎么了?”他爸爸问道。
“我多么希望自己刚才说丢了一毛钱!”
