你说说, 为什么这家伙以这种方式看他的妻子!! | g******4 发帖数: 6339 | 3 A Chinese immigrant, when she lived in China, had bought a swan from a
vendor who told her it was a duck who "stretched its neck in hopes of
becoming a goose."
The woman dreamed of having a daughter who, like the swan, "became more than
what was hoped for."
But when she arrived in America, the officials took the swan away from her.
All she could save of it was a feather.
She had a daughter, just as she hoped, who spoke only American English and
lived a comfortable life. She wanted to give her daughter the swan feather,
but only when she could explain its meaning "in perfect American English."
