In a brightly lit 6th-grade classroom, the amiable science teacher, Mrs. Parks, aimed to deliver an unconventional yet educational lesson. With a twinkle in her eye, she posed an unexpected question, asking, “Class, can anyone tell me which human body part increases to ten times its size when stimulated?”
Confusion rippled through the room, and young minds exchanged puzzled glances, unaccustomed to such queries in a science class. Mary, known for her outspoken nature, bravely stood up, expressing concern about the question’s appropriateness. Mrs. Parks, undeterred, repeated the question.
Despite whispers of impending trouble, Mrs. Parks persisted, seeking an answer. The room hesitated, fearing the consequences of misunderstanding. Then, Billy, a diligent student, nervously revealed the answer: “The pupil of the eye.”
Relief swept through the classroom, and Mrs. Parks praised Billy. Playfully addressing Mary, she remarked, “One, you have a dirty mind. Two, you didn’t read your homework. And three, one day you are going to be very, very disappointed.”
