Lemonade Stand

One Story A Day

一天一个故事

Lemonade Stand Jeannie put up her sign. It said, Lemunaid: five cents a glass! Her neighbour, Mr. Brown, was walking by. He stopped and said, " You didn't spell lemonade right. It should be spelled l-e-m-o-n-a-d-e. " “ Thank you, " said Jeannie. " I'll write it down so l know how to spell it in the future. " All morning, people stopped to tell Jeannie about her spelling mistake. And right before leaving, they all bought a glass of lemonade. A couple of hours later, Mr. Brown came back. This time, he had a sign with him. " I saw that you have been too busy to make a new sign. So, I made one for you, " he told Jeannie.

柠檬水摊子 珍妮挂上了她的牌子。上面写着:5美分一杯!她的邻居布朗先生正好路过。他停下来说:“你没有拼对柠檬水。应该写成I-e-m-o-n-a-d-e。” “谢谢你，”珍妮说。“我要把它写下来，这样我以后就知道怎么拼写了。” 整个上午，人们都停下来告诉珍妮她的拼写错误。在离开之前，他们都买了一杯柠檬水。 几个小时后，布朗先生回来了。这一次，他带了一块牌子。“我看到你太忙了，没有时间做一个新牌子。“所以，我给你做了一个。”他告诉珍妮。

“ Thank you, Mr. Brown. Yes, it's true that lemonade is spelled wrong. But my sign is just right, " said Jeannie. “ Why?” said Mr. Brown. “ Everyone stops to tell me about the mistake, ” said Jeannie. " And then, they always buy lemonade. " Jeannie held up a jar full of money and smiled.

“谢谢你，布朗先生。是的，没错，lemonade这个词拼错了。但我的广告牌很好，”珍妮说。“为什么?”布朗先生说。“每个人都停下来告诉我这个错误，”珍妮说。“然后，他们总是买柠檬水。”珍妮拿起一个装满钱的罐子，笑了。
