The Three Turtles and the Coffee | 三只乌龟与咖啡

English Original

Three turtles decided to have a cup of coffee. Just as they entered the cafe, it began to rain.

The biggest turtle said to the smallest one, "Go home and get the umbrella."

The little turtle replied, "I will, if you don't drink my coffee."

"We won't," the other two promised.

Two years later, the big turtle said to the middle turtle, "Well, I guess he isn't coming back, so we might as well drink his coffee."

Just then, a voice called from outside the door, "If you do, I won't go."


中文翻译

三只乌龟决定去喝杯咖啡。它们刚走进咖啡馆,天就开始下雨了。

最大的乌龟对最小的乌龟说:“回家去拿伞吧。”

小乌龟回答:“如果你们不喝我的咖啡,我就去。”

“我们不喝,”另外两只乌龟保证道。

两年后,大乌龟对中乌龟说:“好吧,我猜他不会回来了,我们不妨把他的咖啡喝掉。”

就在这时,门外传来一个声音:“你们要是喝了,我就不去。”
