Mr. Jenkins is a farmer. One day he drives his truck to town and on the way his truck knocks down
a boy and hurt (弄伤) him. He takes the boy to a hospital and he pays a lot of money for that, but the boy's
parents want to get more money from him, so they say their son can't lift (举起) his right arm above his
head.
Mr. Jenkins' lawyer comes and asks the boy some questions."Now, my boy," he says, "Mr. Jenkins' truck
knocks you down in the street." "Yes, sir, " he says. "And you can't lift your right arm now?" "Yes, sir," he
says. "Could you show how high you can lift your right arm?" Slowly the boy lifts his right arm before his
nose. "Poor boy," says the lawyer, "And how high can you lift before the accident?" "Oh, I can lift it very
high." Says the boy, and the right hand goes up high above his head.
