My half was at the bottom of the bottle

Jimmy and Tommy went off on their bikes for a picnic in the woods.

 

They had one bottle of lemonade between then. Jimmy went to explore while Tommy unpacked¹ the food. When he returned, he found the bottle was empty.

 

"Hey!" he exclaimed² crossly. "Half of that was mine!"

 

"I know," said Tommy, "but I was thirsty, and as my half was at the bottom of the bottle I had to drink through yours to get to it."

 

吉米和汤米骑自行车去森林里野餐。他们带了一瓶柠檬水。在汤米准备食物的当儿，吉米去探险。当他回来后，发现瓶子空了。

 

“嗨！”他生气得嚷，“这水有一半是我的！”

 

“我知道，”汤米说，“但是我非常渴，而且我的那一半在下面，所以我只好先把你的那半喝了才能喝到我的那一半呀。”
