3. A 100-word essay

一篇100 字的作文

The English teacher asked her students to write a 100-word essay after school. Jim is not good at writing essays， but this time he said loudly， “So easy！”

When Jim got home， he took out his exercise book and wrote， “One day， I went out to call my cat in for the night， so I called‘kitty， kitty， kitty， kitty， kitty.” Then he stopped to count the words he wrote. “Oh， Ive written 21 words. Now I can go on to write the 79 times of ‘kitty. When I finish writing 79 times of ‘kitty， my essay will be OK.”

The next day， Jim came back to school. The English teacher looked at Jims essay and said angrily to Jim， “Jim， is it your essay？ How many words are there in it？”

“Yes， this is my essay. There are 100 words in it exactly！ You can count them！”

英語老师要求学生放学后写一篇100 字的短文。吉姆不擅长写作文，但这次他大声地说：“太容易了！”

吉姆回到家后，拿出练习本，写道：“有一天，我出去叫我的猫回家过夜，所以我就叫‘小猫，小猫，小猫，小猫，小猫。”然后，他停下来，数了数他写的单词。“哦，我已经写了21 个单词。现在我可以继续写79 遍‘小猫。当我写完这79 遍‘小猫时，我的作文就写完了。”

第二天，吉姆回到学校。英语老师看着吉姆的作文，生气地对吉姆说 ：“吉姆，这是你的作文吗？里面有多少个单词？”

“是的，这是我的作文。里面正好有100 个单词！你可以数一数！”
