The Twin Boys | 双胞胎男孩

English Original

One day, a young mother brought her two sons to visit our garden. The boys, who looked about four or five years old, sat in a large trolley by the marine fish tanks. They were identical.

"Are they your sons?" I asked the lady.

"Yes!" she replied happily and with pride.

"Are they twins?"

"Yes!" she said, her good mood unchanged.

After a moment of silence, I decided to make a joke. "If they're twins, why are their eyes different? One has black eyes like mine, and the other has blue eyes like yours."

"I know! But I don't know why!" she answered with a smile.

The two boys looked at me strangely.


中文翻译

一天,一位年轻的母亲带着她的两个儿子来参观我们的花园。两个男孩大约四五岁,坐在海洋鱼缸旁的一辆大手推车里。他们长得一模一样。

"他们是你的儿子吗?"我问那位女士。

"是的!"她高兴而自豪地回答。

"他们是双胞胎吗?"

"是的!"她说,愉快的心情依旧。

沉默片刻后,我决定开个玩笑。"既然是双胞胎,为什么眼睛颜色不同?一个像我一样是黑眼睛,另一个像你一样是蓝眼睛。"

"我知道!但我也不知道为什么!"她微笑着回答。

两个男孩奇怪地看着我。
