The zoo built a special eight-foot-high fence for its newly acquired kangaroo, but the next morning the animal was found hopping around outside. The height of the fence was increased to 15 feet, but the kangaroo got out again. Exasperated, the zoo director had the height increased to 30 feet, but the kangaroo still escaped. A giraffe asked the kangaroo, “How high do you think theyll build the fence?”
“I dont know.” said the kangaroo, “Maybe a thousand feet if they keep leaving the gate unlocked.”

“你认为他们会把围墙建到多高?”
“我不知道,”袋鼠说,“如果他们继续开着大门,可能要修到一千英尺吧。”

等儿子回来后,父亲问儿子:“你把信投进信箱了吗?”
“当然啦!”
“难道你没有注意到信封上没有收件人地址和姓名吗?”
“信封上的确什么都没有写啊。”
“那你为什么没有把它拿回来?”
“我以为你不写地址和收件人是因为不想让我知道你把信寄给谁呢!”
