題目【103地特五等一般第41題至第45題】
My little brother is so irritating. All day long he says, “ Eddie, I wonder why people can talk but animals can’t.” Or,“ I wonder why the ocean looks blue.” Of course, I don’t know the answers, but I don’t let him know that. I just make up reasonable explanations, and he accepts them as if I’m the smartest person in the world. Before I answer one of his questions, I usually tell him that he’s pretty stupid and asks too many questions.
Well, yesterday we both got our report cards. I got B’s and C’s, and he got straight A’s. Under the “ Comments ” section on my report card, it said, “ Eddie would be getting better grades if he asked more questions.” Of course, on my brother’s report card, it said just the opposite. To make things worse, my brother squawked all day about how I was so stupid for not asking questions! I just sighed and told him he was right─I wouldn’t make fun of him anymore for asking so many questions.
Yes, I learned a lesson from my little brother: Never be afraid to ask questions, and NEVER be afraid to wonder why.

【講解】
My little brother is so irritating. 我的弟弟太惱人了。All day long he says, “ Eddie, I wonder why people can talk but animals can’t.” 他整天說：“埃迪，我想知道為什麼人們可以說話，但動物不能。”Or,“ I wonder why the ocean looks blue.” 或者，“我想知道為什麼海洋看起來是藍色的。”43 Of course, I don’t know the answers, but I don’t let him know that. 當然，我不知道答案，但我不會讓他知道(我不會)。 I just make up reasonable explanations, and he accepts them as if I’m the smartest person in the world. 我只是編造合理的解釋，而他接受他們，好像我是世界上最聰明的人。Before I answer one of his questions, I usually tell him that he’s pretty stupid and asks too many questions. 在回答他的一個問題之前，我通常會告訴他，他很愚蠢，問了那麼多問題。
Well, 44 yesterday we both got our report cards. 好了，昨天我們都拿到了我們的成績單。 I got B’s and C’s, and he got straight A’s. 我拿到了B和C，他拿到了A。 Under the “ Comments ” section on my report card, it said, “ Eddie would be getting better grades if he asked more questions.” 根據我成績單上的“評論”部分，它說：“如果埃迪提出更多問題，他的成績會更好。”Of course, on my brother’s report card, it said just the opposite. 當然，在我弟弟的成績單上，情況正好相反。
To make things worse, my brother squawked all day about how I was so stupid for not asking questions! 更糟糕的是，我弟一整天都在喋喋不休地問我怎麼這麼笨，不問問題！I just sighed and told him he was right─I wouldn’t make fun of him anymore for asking so many questions. 我只是嘆了口氣，告訴他他是對的 - 我不想再嘲笑他問這麼多問題了。
