原文
"Sometimes Anne's answers were about as queer as Davy's questions," said
Marilla drily. "The twins will miss her and no mistake; but her future
can't be sacrificed to Davy's thirst for information. When he asks
questions I can't answer I'll just tell him children should be seen and
not heard. That was how I was brought up, and I don't know but what it
was just as good a way as all these new-fangled notions for training
children."
