946　Is she in Paine or Hacking? 她是疼痛还是干咳？

At our school the two first-grade teachers were named Miss Paine and Mrs. Hacking. One morning the mother of a student called to excuse her daughter from school. “Is she in Paine or Hacking?” I asked. “She feels fine,” said the confused mom. “We have company and I'm just keeping her home.”

在我们学校，教一年级的两个老师名字叫Paine（疼痛）小姐和Hacking（干咳）太太。一天早上，一个学生的妈妈打电话来给孩子请假。我问：“她是在Paine还是Hacking的班上（她是疼痛还是干咳）？”这个被搞糊涂的妈妈回答说：“她没有病。我们有客人来，想让她留在家里。”
