A Pair of Socks Each Day
Originally in Chinese
One morning, a boy named Tony was getting dressed in his
bedroompreparing to go to school. His mother called out
from the living room, "Remember to put on a pair of new
socks!" Tony answered, "Yes, mom,
I will put on a pair of new socks." His mother emphasized, "
I mean that you should wear a new pair of socks every day!"
Tony again answered,"Yes, mom, I will put on a new pair
of socks every day."
A week later, he came out of the bedroom and said to his
mother, "Mom,I cannot get my feet into my shoes anymore."
