Does Anyone Want a Nice Clean Plate? 有人要干净的盘子吗
Peter was ten years old. One day his friend Paul said to him, "I'm going to have a birthday party on Saturday, Peter. Can you come?"
Peter asked his mother, and she said, "Yes, you can go." She phoned Paul's mother to tell her.
Before Peter went to the party on Saturday afternoon, his mother said to him, "Now, Peter, don't forget to be polite. Don't ask for food. Wait until someone gives it to you."
"All right, Mom," Peter answered, and he went to Paul's house on his bicycle.
There were a lot of children at the party. They played together for an hour, and then
Paul's mother gave them some food; but she forgot to give Peter any. He waited politely for a few minutes, and then he held his plate up in the air and said loudly, "Does anyone want a nice clean plate?"
彼德十岁了。 一天他的朋友保罗对他说:“彼德,星期六我要举办生日派对,你能来吗?”
彼德问母亲,母亲说:“没问题. 你去吧。”她还打电话通知了保罗的母亲。
星期六下午,彼德去赴宴。临行前,母亲对他说:“彼德,别忘了讲礼貌。别主动要吃的,等别人拿给你。”
 
“好的,妈妈。”彼德说.然后他骑着自行车去了保罗的家:
派对上孩子很多,他们在一起玩了一个钟头,然后保罗的母亲给他们分发食物,但她忘了给彼德。彼德等了几分钟,然后把盘子举在空中,大声说:“有人要干净的盘子吗?”
编后语:
懂得灵活变通也是一种生存法则,彼德遵照妈妈的叮嘱,在别人家做客时坚决不主动要吃的以显示礼貌得体,不料主人忘了分给他食物,还好彼德想出了一个妙招,问谁要自己的空盘子,既没违反妈妈所说的礼貌,又让主人知道了自己的盘子是空的,真是机灵。
