英语笑话:Punishment 惩罚

A ten-year-old student asked, " Teacher，would you punish me for something I didn’t do? "

"Of course not," the teacher replied.

The kid said，" Good，because I didn't do my homework. "

Notes:

1. A ten-year-old student asked, "Teacher, would you punish me for something I didn't do? "

一个10岁的学生问：“老师，你会因为我没有做过的事而处罚我吗?”

2. "punish sb. for sth." 是指“因为某事而处罚某人”，for在此当介词，有“因为、由于”的意思，如：The teacher punished him for his absence.老师因为他缺席而处罚他。若要表不以何种方式处罚，可以用with代替for,，如：He drove through the red light so the policeman punished him with a fine.他闯了红灯，所以瞥察对他进行罚款处理。

3. fine [fain ] n. 罚金

4. "Of course not," the teacher replied.

老师回答：“当然不会”

5. The kid said, "Good, because 1 didn't do my homework." 这个孩子说：“大好了!因为我没做家庭作业。”

"good"在这里是感叹词，表示满意或赞成时发出的感叹语，有“太好了、行、可以、好”的意思。
