外国人讲:
One day,the father let his eight year-old son send a letter.The son took the letter;the father then remembered he didn’t write the address and addressee’s name on the envelope.
After the son came back,the father asked him:“You have thrown the letter in the mail box?”
“Certainly.”
“You have not seen there is no address or the addressee name on the envelope?”
“I certainly saw nothing written on the envelope.”
“Then why you didn’t take it back?”
“I also thought that you did not write the address and the addressee because you did not want me to know whom you send the letter to!”

有一天,父亲让8岁的儿子去寄一封信。儿子已经拿着信跑了,父亲才想起信封上没写地址和收信人的名字。
儿子回来后,父亲问他:“你把信丢进邮筒了吗?”
“当然。”
“你没看见信封上没有写地址和收信人的名字吗?”

“那你为什么不拿回来呢?”
