The school of agriculture's dean of admissions was interviewing a prospective student. "Why have you chosen this career?" he asked.

　　"I dream of making a million dollars in farming, like my father," the student replied.

　　"Your father made a million dollars in farming?" echoed the impressed dean.

　　"No," replied the applicant. "But  he always dreamed of it."

　　“我梦想以经营农场来赚一百万元，就像我父亲一样。”这个学生回答说。

　　“你父亲经营农场赚了一百万元？”主任惊诧地问道。

　　“没有，”这位申请人回答道，“他总是梦想着赚到这个数目。”
