Every year, Fred and Ethel would spend a day at the State Fair. Every year, Fred would say, "Ethel, I'd like to ride in that airplane."[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ z`lB,'& q&i�*ySD1FroG]
And every year, Ethel would say, "I know, Fred, but that airplane ride cost ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars."[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ NJY|X }�+a\c FroG]
One year, while they were at the fair, Fred said, "Ethel, I'm 74 years old. If I don't have a ride in that airplane this year, I may never get another chance."[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ G2Y/& _~ExCT,}7FroG]
"Fred, that airplane ride cost ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars," Ethel replied.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ ;|B{F=)i0~ ~v?/vhvFroG]
The pilot happened to overhear them and said, "Listen folks, I'll make you a deal. I'll take you both up for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word, I won't charge you anything. But, if you say one word, then you'll have to pay the ten dollars."[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ yhM=ftI \ly Z]7@FroG]
Fred and Ethel agreed, so up they went. The pilot did all kinds of rolls and dives, twists and turns, but not a word was heard. He did all his fancy maneuvers again, but still not a word.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ F iHEyq BE!:\D\�E|wFroG]
When they finally landed, the pilot turned to Fred and said, "Gosh, I did everything I could think of to get you to yell out, and yet you never said a word."[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ h8~a #SBmLhf wqG~FroG]
"Well," Fred replied, "I was going to say something when Ethel fell out, but ten dollars is ten dollars."[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ ,J" wfwCK u1gCaFroG]
