Once there was a young man who was so confident in his strength(力量)that he offered a $1000 bet. He would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money.



Many people, including weight lifters, truck drivers, etc., had tried, but nobody could do it. One day a scrawny little man came up and said in a low voice, "I'd like to try the bet."?



People all laughed, but the young man said OK. He grabbed a lemon, and squeezed it. Then he handed it to the little man.



The thin man clenched his fist around the lemon and, to everyone's surprise, six drops fell into the glass.



As the crowd cheered ,the young man paid the $1000,and asked the little man, "What do you do for a living? Are you a weight lifter, or what?"?



The man replied, "I work for the IRS."?
