726　A Life-time Punishment 终生的惩罚

Even though I'm in my 30s I still stop by my parents' house to mow their lawn. One afternoon, the kid next door was cutting his grass at the same time. “It's punishment for skipping a day of school,” he explained. “Why are you still doing your folks' yard?” “Because I cut a class when I was your age,” I said with a straight face. I'm told he's had perfect attendance ever since.

我虽然已经三十多岁了，但是仍然为我父母家修剪草坪。一天下午，隔壁邻居家的男孩正好也在修剪草坪。他说：“我是因为逃学一天受到惩罚。你为什么还给你父母家修剪草坪？”我一脸严肃地说：“因为我像你那么大的时候逃课。”后来我听说他再也没有逃学。
