The little boy did not like the look of the barking dog.

"It's all right，" said a gentleman， "don't be afraid. Don't you know the proverb: Barking dogs don't bite?"

"Ah， yes，" answered the little boy. "I know the proverb， but does the dog know the proverb， too?"

一个小男孩非常不喜欢狗狂叫的样子。

“没有关系，”一位先生说，“不用害怕，你知道这条谚语吗：‘吠狗不咬人。’”

“啊，我是知道，可是狗也知道吗？”
