Buried Treasure!

An old captain and a young sailor are talking at a bar.

Captain: Boy, do you like adventure and danger?

Sailor: Yes, sir.

Captain: our father was a good friend of mine. He even saved my life once. So, I’m going to do you a favour. Come closer, boy. Take a look at this.

Sailor: A treasure map!

Captain: Keep quiet. Now, you listen closely. About 10 years ago, I sailed with my crew to the Caribbean. We carried a chest full of gold, jewels… treasure enough for a king! But

those were dangerous times. I had to bury the treasure on the island of Bara Julip. Sailor: Did you look for it later?

Captain: No, I never had the chance. No, I’m too cold and want you to have the map.

Sailor: I don’t know what to say. Thank you.

Captain: you must be careful! There are mountains, lakes, forests, and rivers to cross. If the animals don’t kill you, the hot weather might. Remember, there’s only one mountain

pass. Cross the forest quickly. Be sure to cross the river in the north.

Sailor: I’ll do my best.

Captain: Good luck, boy.

The fore babies

Anna, Bernard, Carmen and Diana, three girls and a boy, were all born in the same hospital on the same day last month. One day all of their four mothers asked a nurse to give them each a bath(洗澡), because their fathers were soon coming to the hospital to see their babies. But the nurse was new. She took off their name labels (标签)one by one when she bathed them, but she forgot to put any of them on again.
