 Impudent 1 Questions 


  A little girl from the East Side was invited to a garden party given by a very aristocratic lady to a group of little East-Siders. 
  The little girl, as she drank her tea and ate her plum-cake on a velvet 2 lawn under a white-blooming cherry tree, said to her hostess: 
  Does your husband drink? 
  Why-er-no, not to excess, was the astonished reply. 
  How much does he make? 
  He doesn't work, said the lady. He is a capitalist. 
  You keep out of debt, I hope? 
  Of course, child. What on earth do you mean by all these impudent questions? 
  Impudent? said the little girl. Why, Ma'am, Mother told me to be sure and behave like a lady, and when ladies call at our rooms they always question Mother like that.

  在一棵开满了白色小花儿的樱桃树下,小女孩坐在柔软的草地上,一边品尝着她的茶和梅子蛋糕,一边对贵妇人说:你的丈夫酗酒吗? 呃,呃,不,他喝得不多。夫人一脸惊诧。 
  他挣多少钱? 
  他不工作,夫人回答说,他是个资本家。 
  我希望你们没有负债吧? 
  当然没有,孩子。你问这么些无礼的问题到底是想说什么呢?
