Thats why hes so expensive. Then the customer said, How about the third one? What canhe do that makes him so expensive? The owner of the shopsaid, I dont know. Normally, I have never heard him talk, nor dance, nor whistle, nor sing, nothing at all! But the other two call him The Boss.

　　老板最大有个人到一间商店买鹦鹉。店里有三只鹦鹉，其中一只卖五千元，另一只卖一万元，还有一只卖三万元。顾客问老板：「为什么这只要卖五千元?这个价钱对这种鹦鹉来说太贵了!」老板说：「因为我有训练他讲话。」顾客又问：「那这只呢?他会做什么?为什么要卖这么贵?」老板说：「他除了会说话之外，还会表演一些有趣的动作，好比说跳舞等等，所以才卖这么贵。」顾客接着又问：「那第三只呢?他会做什么?为什么要卖这么贵?」老板说：「我不知道。我从没听过他讲话、吹口哨或唱歌，也没看过他跳舞，什么都没有!不过另外两只叫他：『老板!』」
