英文短篇故事（纽约）74 The Magic Frog

 　　She went to Central Park to catch dinner. She caught a big frog. She was about to put it into a bag. The frog said, "What are you doing?" She said, "I was planning on cooking and eating you. But since you can talk, maybe I should put you on TV." The frog said, "I don't want to be on TV. I'm a magic frog. I'll grant you one wish if you release me." She said, "One wish? Okay, I wish to live forever." "Done," said the frog. The next day, she got hit by a truck. She was completely paralyzed. Moreover, she was "locked in." She could do only two things: blink and think. She wished she could die. She lived 80 years blinking and thinking. Then her wish came true. The hospital pulled the plug on her.
