He Loves His Country

热爱祖国

“I don’t like John,” she told her husband. “Why don’t you like John?” he asked his wife. She said that John said bad things about Americans. He said Americans are lazy. He said Americans are greedy. He said Americans are selfish. He said Americans are unfriendly. John said the people in his country aren’t lazy. The people in his country aren’t greedy. The people in his country aren’t selfish. The people in his country aren’t unfriendly. “But John is new here,” said her husband. “He doesn’t know anyone yet. He doesn’t have any friends. When he has new friends, he will change his mind. He will say different things. He will say good things about Americans.” He told his wife to be patient. She didn’t want to be patient. “A new person shouldn’t say bad things,” she said. “He should go back to his country.”

她对丈夫说:“我不喜欢约翰。”他问妻子:“为什么不喜欢?”她说约翰说了有损美国人的话。他说美国人很懒惰。他说美国人很贪婪。还说美国人自私。美国人不友好。约翰说他国家的人不懒惰。不贪婪。不自私。也很友好。丈夫说:“约翰刚来到这里。他还谁都不认识。他没有朋友。等他有了新朋友,他将改变想法。他将不会这么说。他会说美国人好。”他告诉妻子要耐心。但她耐心不了。她说:“新人不应该说坏话。他应该回到自己国家。”
