　　A mother came home from shopping for tea, and saw that some tea had already been made by her 15-year-old daughter. The mother then asked the daughter, "Did you use the tea strainer?"

　　Because in England they use chopped tea leaves to make tea, and you have to use a tea strainer to strain out the tea leaves, and then drink only the liquid.

　　And the daughter said, "Yes, mother, I did filter the tea leaves. But I couldn't find the tea strainer,so I used the fly swatter." The mother said, "Oh! My God! Why did you do that? You shouldn't have done that!" And the daughter said, "Oh mother, don't panic. It's just an old one. I didn't use the new one."

　　母亲购物回来，想喝点茶，发现她15岁的女儿已经泡好茶了，就问女儿：“你用滤茶器了吗？”因为英国人用碎茶叶来泡茶，所以要用滤茶器过滤出茶水来喝。

　　女儿回答：“妈，我有过滤，但因为找不到滤茶器，所以就用苍蝇拍来过滤。”母亲听了就说：“噢！怎么搞的，你不能这样做啦！”

　　女儿回答：“妈，你不要紧张，我只是用那支旧的苍蝇拍，没有用新的那支！”
