Little Steve has a pet rabbit，Bunny. He plays with it every day after school. One day his mother sees that her little boy is holding Bunny by the ears. From time to time he gives the poor rabbit an angry shake and says:“how much is two plus two?”

小史蒂夫有一只宠物兔子，名叫本尼。他每天放学后都跟兔子玩。一天，他妈妈看见他抓着兔子的耳朵，不时地摇着那只可怜的兔子愤怒地说:“二加二等于几?”

"Steve，”says his mother，"Why do you treat your poor little Bunny that ways”

“史蒂夫，”他妈妈说，“你为什么那样对待可怜的小本尼?”

"Well，"explains Steve angrily，"Our teacher says that rabbits multiply very quickly，but this dummy¹ can't even add.”

“哼，”史蒂夫气愤地解释道:“我们老师说兔子算乘法很快，但这个笨蛋连加法都不会。”
