tuck大口地吃，cor老天爺，

笑話原文】

Two Apples

Harry was given two apples, a small one and a large one, by his mum. "Share them with your sister," she said.

So Harry handed over the small one to his little sister and started tucking into the large one.

"Cor!" Grumbled his sister . "If mum had given them to me, I'd have given you the large one and had the small one myself."

"Well," said Harry. "That’s what you've got, so what are you worrying about?"

中文譯文】

兩個蘋果

媽媽給了哈里兩只蘋果，一個小的，一個大的。“跟妹妹分著吃，”她說。

于是，哈里就把小的給了妹妹，自己狼吞虎咽地吃著那只大的。

“啊!”他的妹妹說，“要是媽媽給我兩只蘋果，我就會把大的給你，小的留給我自己。”

“噢，”哈里說。“你拿到的不就是小的嘛，所以你還擔(dān)心什么?”
