Day after Day
A teacher was always so involved in the text being studied that he never looked up. He would call on a student for translation and explanation; and ?? without realizing it ?? he often chose the same student day after day. Out of respect , the student wouldn't point this out to him.
After being called on four days in a row, a student named Goldberg asked advice from his friends. The next day when the teacher said “ Goldberg, translate and explain, ” Goldberg replied, “ Goldberg is absent today.”
“ All right, ” said the teacher. “ YOU translate and explain. ” |
