The Author's Son 作家的儿子
 
The kind bishop intimately asked an author's son, "Do you want to become an author like your father?"
"No," replied the author's son.
"Then what is your ambition, my little man?" said the bishop.
"I want to become a famous person, then anything I write will be printed," frankly replied the hopeful little boy, wise beyond his age.
和蔼友善的主教亲切地问一位作家的儿子：“你想成为一个像你父亲一样的作家吗？”
作家的儿子回答说：“不想。”
主教说：“那你有什么志向呀，小家伙！”
这个早慧的对未来充满希望的男孩坦率地回答说：“我要成为一个有名的人，那时无论我写什么，都会被刊载和出版。”
