A tasty meal 一顿美餐

A tourist in Africa sent his mother an exotic bird for her birthday. When he got back to the States, he called her. "Hi, Mom," he said. "How'd you like the bird I gave you?"

"It was delicious."

"You ate the bird!" the guy shrieked. "He was very expensive. He could talk!"

"Well, if he was so smart," replied the mother, "Why didn't he say something?"

一位在非洲旅行的旅客送给了他母亲一只奇特动人的鸟作为生日礼物。他回到美国后，打电话问道：“妈，你好。你喜欢我送您的那只鸟吗？”

“太好吃了！”

“您把它吃了？”小伙子惊叫了起来。“那只鸟可贵了，它还会说话呢？”

“噢，如果它照你说的那么聪明的话，他为什么没告诉我呀？”母亲回答说。
