Once a boy comes to ask a fisherman about how to be clever, because his mother always says to him, “Don't be so foolish.”
“That's easy,” answers the fisherman. “I know how to make you clever.”
“That's great,” says the boy.
“Well, someone says a fish head is good for people's head. If you eat a fish head, you'll be a cleverer boy. And it only costs you three dollars.” Then, the fisherman cuts a fish head off and gives it to the boy.
The boy looks at the fish head and thinks, “One whole (全部的) fish only costs me two dollars, but the fish head costs me three dollars. Why don't I buy a whole fish? I will cook the fish body for fish soup and the head for my head. I can save one dollar to buy ice cream.” Thinking that it is a great idea, he jumps up and shouts at the fisherman, “Are you kidding me? I am not so foolish!”
Hearing this, the fisherman laughs, saying, “You see, the fish head is working well now!”
