Bob was clever, but he never worked hard at his lessons. “I must make Bob work more and play less,” his father said to himself. “I must let Bob know I care very much about his studies.” So he wrote down some questions. He was going to ask Bob two or three questions each day, and decided to begin with the quite easy ones.
That evening when Bob came home from school, his father brought up the first question, “Bob,” said his father, “how many
letters are there in the alphabet?” “I don’t know.” Bob said. “You don’t know?” the father looked unhappy. “You started school two years ago, and you don’t even know how many letters there are in the alphabet?” “Is that surprising? Well, let me ask you a question, Dad. You started to work in the post office five years ago, didn’t you?” “Yes?” Bob’s father was confused(迷惑的). “Then can you tell me how many letters there are in the letter-box over there?”
