GREEN, PINK and YELLOW

Can you name the colors in English ? Yes you are right. Blue, red ,yellow an so on. By the way
I have a funny story about the colors. Do you want to hear it ? Okay, listen to me carefully.

One day an English teacher was explaining about colors to her students.

After she had finished explaining, she asked her students. “ Who can make a sentence using the
words green, pink and yellow.
James, the cleverest student in the class, quickly raised his hand and answered “ When the
yellow morning Sun comes, I see a beautiful girl wearing a pink dress, walking through the green
grass “.
“Well done ! James, you are a very good student”, said the teacher.

“Me, me, Sir” Johny, the silly student in the class said while raising his hand. And then he
said, “I heard the telephone was ringing green….green…, then I pink up the receiver and I said,
“Yellow, who’s speaking there?”

“We Don't Subscribe to Any Newspaper”

Mike was a university student. He studies history. At the end of the year, his history
professor failed him in his examinations and he was told to leave the university.

The next day, Jack's father went to see the proffessor. He urged the professor to let
Jack continue his studies the following year. "He's a good boy," said Jack's father, "and if you
give him a chance this time, I'm sure he will improve a lot next year." "No, no! That's quite
impossible!" replied the professor, "Do you know, last month I asked him when Napoleon
died, and he could not answer it." "Please, sir, give him another chance," said Jack's father,
"you see, we don't subscribe to any newspapers in our house, so none of us even knew that
Napoleon was ill."

“Bad Dream”
Once there was a couple sleeping. The wife had a bad dream. She woke up. She was scared
and cried.
Her husband tried to make her comfortable and asked why she cried. Then she replied: “I had
a dream that a very rich and handsome man kidnapped me from you.” Hearing his wife
answer, the husband said: “It is ok honey, it was just a dream.”
Immediately the wife responded loudly: “That is why I’m crying.”
