Harvey was having his hair cut in a barber shop when a young boy entered the shop. The barber said to Harvey in a very low voice, "This is the silliest kid in the world. Watch while I show it to you." The barber put a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters(25美分) in the other, then called the boy over and asked, "Which do you want, son?" The boy took the quarters and left. "What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"
Later, when Harvey left, he saw the same young boy coming out of an ice cream store. "Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?" The boy ate his ice cream and replied, "Because the day I take the dollar, the game's over!"

Mr. and Mrs. Bell are very forgetful. For example, Mr. Bell sometimes goes to work on Sunday morning, for he thinks it is Monday. And Mrs. Bell sometimes forgets to cook supper for the family.

One summer, they planned to fly to New York for their holidays. They got to the airport only ten minutes before the plane took off. So time was short. But suddenly Mrs. Bell said she must tell Alice, their daughter, not to forget to lock the front door when she went to school. As Alice was then at school, they couldn't tell her about it by telephone. So they hurried to the post office. Mrs. Bell wrote a short note to Alice when Mr. Bell bought a stamp and an envelope(信封). Soon the note was ready. They put the stamp on the envelope in a hurry and dropped the envelope into the letter box, but suddenly Mrs. Bell began to cry. The short note was still in her hand. She had put the plane tickets in the envelope.

I feel happy when I spend time with my family. Every time I feel sad, I skate with my sister, go shopping with my parents, or play computer games with my brother. If someone is unhappy, I just tell them jokes to make them laugh. It always works.
