"What was Bunker Hill?"she said.
The student thought for some time and then answered, "An airport?"
"No, it was a battle," the teacher said, she was getting a little angry now, but she was trying not to show it.Then she asked, "Who was the first president of the United States?"
The student thought for a long time, but didn't say anything. Then the teacher got very angry and shouted, "George Washington!"
The student got up and began to walk towards his seat.
"Come back!" the teacher said. "I didn't tell you to go."
"Oh, I'm sorry," the student said. "I thought you called the next student."
第一位总统
老师向一位学生提出很多问题，可是这位学生却一问三不知。老师只好换一些极其简单的问题，这样学生也许能答对几个题。
“邦克山是什么？”老师问。
学生想了一会儿，然后答道：“飞机场。”
“不对，那是一场战役，”老师说，她有些恼火了，但还是努力克制着不流露出来，接着她又问道，“谁是美国第一位总统？”
学生想了许多，可还是一语不发。
老师终于怒不可遏，大声喊道，“乔治·华盛顿！”
学生站起来开始朝自己座位走去。
“回来”老师说，“我没让你离开。”
“噢，真抱歉，”学生说。“我还以为您在叫下一位学生呢。”
