The farmer and his cow
A farmer had a cow. He took very good care of his cow. One day it was ill, the farmer was very worried. He telephoned the vet.
“What’s the problem?” the vet asked the farmer when he arrived. “My cow is ill,” said the farmer.” I don’t know what’s the matter with her. She’s lying down and doesn’t eat. She’s making a strange noise.”
The vet looked at the cow. “She’s certainly ill,” he said, “ and she needs to take some strong medicine.”
He took a bottle out of his box, put two pills into his hand and said, “ Give her these. The pills should make her better.”
“How should I give them to her? The farmer asked.
The vet gave him a tube(管子) and said, “Put this tube in her mouth, then put the pills in the tube and blow. That’ll make it.”
