A school teacher friend of mine in juried 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 tack1 through his tie into his chest.
He had no trouble with discipline that term.
我的一位做教师的朋友背部受了伤，不得不在上身穿上了石膏罩。
开学的第一天，他的石膏罩还穿在身上。他被分派去教学校最不守纪律的班级。他信心十足地走进乱哄哄的教室，把窗子尽可能开得大些。正在这时，一阵强风把他的领带吹得飘了起来。为了固定领带，他拿起黑板擦，透过领带，把一个大头钉砸入胸膛。
在那个学期里，在他课上的学生们一直是安安静静的。
