你输了
 

On her return from school，little Dolly, aged ten，was pulled on to her Daddy's knee，and informed that the fairies had that day brought a big surprise-a little baby brother.She seemed glad，and presently said:

放学回到家里，十岁的小多莉被拉过来坐在她爸爸的膝上，她被告知那天仙女们带来了一个大大的惊奇—一个婴儿小弟弟。她似乎很高兴，马上说:

"Will you give me a stamp，daddy?I want to write and tell brother Tom.

“爸爸，你能不能给我一张邮票?我要写信告诉汤姆哥哥。”

The father was touched by this，and provided the little lass with the materials to write a letter to her brother，who was away at school.Later，curious to know how she would tell the news，he took an opportunity to read what she had written.He received something of a shock on reading the following:

父亲被这话感动了，他为小姑娘提供了给她哥哥写信所需的各种用具，她的哥哥住在学校里。后来，想知道她是怎么报告这个消息的，他找机会读了她写的信。在读到下面这两行字时，他差点儿惊呆了:

“Dear Tom,

“亲爱的汤姆:

It's come off today.You've lost;it's a boy.”

今天结果出来了，你输了;是个男孩。”
