Question

Jenny was a pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were shopping at the store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl necklace (珍珠项链) priced at $50. Jenny wanted that necklace so much that she asked her mother to buy it for her. However, her mother said, "Well, it is a pretty necklace, but it costs a lot of money." "But I love it very much. I really want it. Mommy," said Jenny. "OK. I'll buy it for you, but you should help do the housework to pay for it. OK?" said Jenny's mother. Jenny agreed and she got the necklace.

After that, Jenny worked on the chores very hard evenly day. Soon Jenny paid off the necklace. How Jenny loved it! She wore it all the time except when she took a shower, However, her mother was afraid that the necklace would turn her neck green if she always wore it.

One night, Jenny's father asked her, "Jenny, do you love me?"

"Oh, yes. Daddy, you know I love you," the little girl said.

"Well, then, can you give me your necklace?"

"Oh! Daddy, not my necklace," Jenny said. "But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll (玩偶). Or you can have my Ribbons, my favorite toy."

"But I just want your pearl necklace," her father said.

Jenny seemed very upset, but she finally made her decision. "Here, Daddy. I love you more than all of them," she said and put the necklace in her father's hand.

With one hand her father held the plastic pearl necklace and with the other one he pulled a beautiful box from his pocket. Inside the box was a real pearl necklace! He was waiting for Jenny to give up the plastic pearl necklace so she could have the real one.
