married.'
His father replied hesitantly, 'Sure, son, do you have anyone special in mind?'
'Yes,' answered the boy. 'I want to marry Grandma.'
'Now, wait a minute,' said his father. 'You don't think I'd let you get married with my
mother, do you?'
'Why not?' the boy asked.

One day, a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink.
She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking
out in contrast to her brunette hair. She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, ‘Why
are some of your hairs white, Mom?’
Her mother replied ‘Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry
or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.’
The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said,

A young executive was leaving the office at 6pm when he found the CEO standing in
front of a shredder with a piece of paper in his hand. ‘Listen,’ said the CEO, ‘this is important,
and my secretary has left. Can you make this thing work?’
‘Certainly,’ said the young executive. He turned the machine on, inserted the paper,
and pressed the start button.
‘Excellent, excellent!’ said the CEO as his paper disappeared inside the shredder.

A truck driver was driving 100 penguins to the New York Zoo when his truck broke
down on the freeway. The driver got out of the cab and was looking at the engine when a
second truck driver stopped in front of him and asked if he needed any help. The penguins'
driver explained that he is taking the penguins to the zoo and asked if the other man would
take the penguins there. He agreed.
Some hours later, the second truck driver drove past the first one, who was still
waiting on the freeway for help to come. The penguins, however, were still on the truck!
‘I asked you to take those penguins to the zoo,’ shouted the first driver.
The second replied, ‘I did, but I had some money left.

III. Make the following rhyme complete. Think of the right singular and plural forms
of nouns according to the meaning of the lines. Be careful and creative.
We'll begin with ………. , and the plural is boxes;
But the plural of ox should be ………., not oxes.
Then one fowl is goose, but two are called ..……..,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone ………. or a nest full of mice,
Yet the plural of ………. is houses, not hice.
If the plural of ………. is always called men,
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called ……….?
The ………. in the plural may be cows or kine,
But the plural of vow is ………., not vine.
I speak of my foot and show you my ……….,
If I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth, and a whole set are ……….,
Why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth?
If the singular is ………. and the plural is these,
Why shouldn't the plural of kiss be named kese?
Then one may be that, and three may be ……….,
Yet the plural of hat would never be hose;
We speak of a brother, and also of ……….,
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
The masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine she, shis, and shim!
So our English, I think, you all will agree,
Is the craziest language you ever did see.
