“ I want you to help me stop my son gambling. ” an anxious father said to his boy's principal. “ I don't know where he gets it from, but it's bet, bet, bet. ”

“ Leave it to me, ” said the principal.

A week later he phoned the boy's father. “ I think I've cured him,” he said.

“ How? ”

“ Well, I saw him looking at my beard and he said, ” I bet that's a false beard, “ How much? I said, and he said $ 5 ”

“ What happened ? ” asked the father.

“ Well he tugged my beard which is quite natural and I made him give me $5. I'm sure that'll teach him a lesson! ”

“ No, it won't,” said the father. “He bet me $10 on Monday that he'd pull your beard with your permission by the end of the week! ”

“ 我想你幫我制止我兒子賭博。 ” 一位焦急的父親對(duì)兒子的校長(zhǎng)說。 ” 我不知道他從哪兒學(xué)來的，總是賭 , 賭 , 賭。 ”“ 交給我吧！ ” 校長(zhǎng)說。

一周后，他打電話給男孩的父親。 “ 我想我已使他改邪歸正。 ” 他說。

“ 怎么辦到的？ ”

“ 噢，他看著我的胡子，然后說： ‘ 我打賭那是假胡子。 ' ‘ 賭多少錢？ ' 我問，他說 5 美元。 ”

“ 后來怎樣？ ” 父親問道。

“ 于是他拉扯了我的胡子后，知道那是貨真價(jià)實(shí)的，我就要他給我 5 美元。我敢肯定我給了他一個(gè)教訓(xùn)。 ”

“ 不行，那沒用。 ” 父親說。 “ 星期一他和我賭了 10 美元，說周末他可以讓你允許他拔你的胡子！ ”
