第17章 望子成龙的母亲

A guy walks into a bar with a small dog。The bartender says,“Get out of here with that dog!”

The guy says,“But this isn't just any dog……this dog can play the piano!”The bartender replies,“Well,if he can play that piano,you both can stay……and have a drink on the house!”So the guy puts the dog on the piano stool and the dog starts playing。Ragtime,Mozart……and the bartender and patrons are enjoying the music。

Suddenly a bigger dog runs in,grabs the small dog by the scruff of the neck and drags him out。The bartender asks the guy,“What is that all about?”

The guy replies,“Oh,that is his mother。She wants him to be a doctor。”

一个人带着只小狗走进了酒吧。酒吧的招待说:“狗不能进来,和狗一起出去!”那个人说:“这只狗可不平常哦。这只狗可是会弹钢琴的哦!”酒吧招待说:“如果这只狗真会弹钢琴,那你俩都能留在这儿。我们免费为你们提供酒水。”这个人把小狗放到了钢琴的凳子上,狗开始弹钢琴了。它弹了格拉泰姆,莫扎特……酒吧招待和顾客都很喜欢。

突然一只大狗跑了进来,她咬住了小狗的后颈,把它拖了出去。酒吧招待问那个人:“这是怎么回事啊?”

这个人回答说:“哦,那是它的妈妈。它希望它当医生而不是钢琴家。”
