A Tough Teacher
A school teacher friend of mine injured his back and had to wear a plaster cast around the upper part of his body. On his first day of the term, still with the cast under his shirt, he was assigned to teach the most undisciplined class. Stepping confidently into the rowdy classroom, he opened the window as wide as possible. Just then, a strong breeze made his tie flap. Trying to fix the tie , he took a blackboard eraser and hammered a large tack through his tie into his chest.
He had no trouble with discipline that term.

強悍的教師
我有一位作教師的朋友弄傷了他的背，因此上身不得不穿石膏罩。開學的第一天，他的身上還穿著石膏罩。他被分派教最不守紀律的班級。他很自信地步入亂哄哄的教室，把窗子盡可能大地打開。就在這時，一陣強風把他的領帶吹得飄起來。為了固定領帶，他拿起黑板擦，把一個大頭釘透過領帶砸入他的胸膛。
那學期在他的課上，沒有不守紀律的。
