English Original
Amos asked his mother whether they could have a video.
"I'm afraid we can't afford one," sighed his mother.
But on the following day, in came Amos, staggering beneath the weight of a brand-new video.
"How on earth did you pay for that?" gasped his mother.
"Easy, Mum," replied Amos. "I sold the television!"

“恐怕我们还买不起,”妈妈叹息着说。
可第二天,艾莫斯回来了,他摇摇晃晃地搬着一台全新的录像机。
“你究竟是哪儿来的钱买这东西?”妈妈喘着气,大吃一惊地问道。
“妈妈,这简单,”艾莫斯回答,“我把电视机给卖了!”
