Reader's Digest 9月号 "All in a Day's Work" からの引用です。
During a lesson about adjectives, my friend, an elementary school teacher, asked her class to describe their mothers. One boy described his mother's hair as auburn.
Impressed by his sophisticated word choice, my friend asked, "How do you know her hair color is auburn?"
Her student replied,"Because that's what it says on the box."
