那天是汤姆五岁的生日,他从家人那里得到了很多不错的礼物,其中有一件礼物是一只漂亮的大鼓.
“这是谁给他的呢?”汤姆妈妈问道.
“我.”爸爸说.
当然,汤姆非常喜欢这个大鼓.虽然他敲鼓的声音很难听,但妈妈却从不在意.汤姆爸爸因为白天工作,而且当爸爸回家时汤姆已经睡觉了,所以爸爸并没有听见过这些噪音.
但是,他们的一位邻居非常不高兴.几天后的一个早上,当她又一次听到汤姆的噪音时,她带着锋利的小刀来到汤姆家:”嘿,汤姆,你知道吗你的鼓里有好东西,打开它,我们一起找找那好东西吧.

比尔是一个好学生,也是个聪明的孩子.他喜欢学数学,课本上所有的数学问题他都能不费劲地解答.
有一天,在上学路上,比尔经过一家水果店.该店窗户上有个招牌上写着:“苹果--五美分六个.”比尔脑筋一转,进了店门.
“苹果怎么卖?”
“五美分六个.”
“但我不想要六个.”
“你想要几个?”
“这不是我想要几个的问题.这是个数学问题.”
“数学问题?你说这话是什么意思?”
“你看,如果六个苹果五美分,那么五个苹果四美分,四个苹果三美分,三个苹果二美分,二个苹果一美分,一个苹果就不要钱.我只要一个苹果,如果一个苹果一分钱也不要的话,那我也就没必要给你钱了.”
比尔拣了一个好苹果,开始吃了起来,然后兴高采烈地迈出了店门.那个售货员吃惊地望着这个小男孩,一句话也说不出来.
