Mark Twain was asked,one day if he could remember the first money he earned.He thought a long time before answering and then said,“Yes,it was at school.There was a rule in our school that anybody who damaged his desk with a pencil or a knife would be beaten in front of the whole school or would have to pay five dollars.One day I damaged my desk in some way.I had to tell my father I had broken the rule,and had to pay five dollars,or be beaten before the whole school.He agreed to pay.But before giving me the money he took me upstairs and gave me a beating.Now as I had had one beating got used to it,I decided I would take another besting at school and keep the five dollars.So that was what I did.That was the first money I ever earned.

有一天,马克·吐温被问到是否还记得他赚的第一笔钱是什么时候.他想了想,回答道:“我还记得,那是我还在学校的时候.那个时候,我们学校有一条校规,如果谁用笔或者小刀损坏了他的桌子,就得当着全校师生的面受罚或者罚款5美元.有一天,我的桌子被我损坏了.我不得不告诉我爸爸,我违反了规定,要被罚款5美元或者当着全校师生挨打.他同意了让我去交罚款.但是在给我钱之前,他把我带到楼上,揍了我一顿.由于我觉得我被打过一次已经习惯了,我决定到学校去把另外一顿揍也挨了,然后把5美元留下来.这就是当时我的做法,所以那是我赚的第一笔钱.”
