英语笑话:晒一晒送给妈妈的礼物

Sons' Gifts to Mother

Three sons discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother.The first said, "I built a big house for our mother."The second said, "I sent her a Mercedes with a driver."The third smiled and said, "I've got you both beat. Remember how mom enjoyed reading the Bible? And you know she can't see very well. I sent her a remarkable parrot that recites the entire Bible. Mama just has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot recites it."Soon thereafter, mom sent out her letters of thanks.She wrote one son, "the house you built is so huge. I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house."She wrote to another, "I am too old to travel. I stay most of the time at home, so I rarely use the Mercedes.""Dearest Donald," she wrote to her third son, "you have the good sense to know what your mother likes. The chicken was delicious."

给妈妈的礼物

三个儿子商量给年迈的妈妈买什么礼物好。大儿子说，“我给妈妈建一幢大房子。”二儿子说，“我给她买一辆奔驰。”三儿子笑着说，“你们的礼物都不好。还记得妈妈多喜欢读圣经吗？现在她视力不大好看不了了。我送她一只鹦鹉，会背诵圣经的。妈妈只要起个头，它就可以接着背下去。”不久之后，妈妈分别给三人发了感谢信。她给大儿子写道，“你建的房子太大了，我只能住一间屋，可是要打扫整幢房子的卫生。”她给二儿子写道，“我太老了，没法出门旅行。大部分时间呆在家里，很少用车。”“亲爱的，”她跟小儿子说，“妈妈的心思你最明白，那只小鸟的味道美极了。”
