内容正文:
A very old lady won a million dollars in a lottery. Her son and his wife heard the news on the radio.“How are we going to tell your mother?” the wife asked. “It might kill her!”
“That's right,” the son said, “perhaps we'd better tell her doctor about it. He'll know how to tell the news to her.”
Then they told it to the old lady's doctor. “I'm glad you told me,” he said, “a shock, even a happy one could bring on a heart problem. Leave it to me. I'll find a way of telling her.”
He thought about the problem for several days, and then decided what he would say. He went to visit the old lady and sat by her side. He took her hands in his. “Let's play a game, my dear,” he said.
“Oh, yes,” the old lady said. “I love playing games.”
“Good, I'll ask you a question first,” the doctor said. “Tell me, what would you do if you won a million dollars in the lottery?”
“Oh, that's an easy one,” the old lady said. “I'd give you most of it because you have been so good to me all these years!”
The doctor fell on the floor. He had died of a shock.
