My son (11 years old) was ordering a smoothie at a juice bar. He asked for a strawberry smoothie but the woman behind the counter told him “we only make strawberry banana smoothies” without missing a beat my son tells the woman “I’m allergic to bananas”. She made the smoothies without bananas.

I try to instill in my children that lying is wrong but I was impressed that he very quickly figured out how to get what he wanted.

Vocabularies：

smoothie ： n. 善于讨好女人的男子、举止优雅的人；果汁(加奶或者冰激凌等)；

without missing a beat ：if you do or say something without missing a beat, you continue confidently with what you are saying or doing.
