The Lazy Artist

The teacher handed out sheets of paper to all the children in her class. The students were supposed to draw a cow. After some time, all the students had put their drawings on the teacher's desk. As the teacher was going through the stack, she came to an empty paper. It was Raju's. The teacher asked Raju " what is this? did i not tell you to draw a cow!". Raju replied, " it is a cow maam! here, i will tell you. it is a cow eating grass. see, the ground was covered with grass. then the cow ate all the grass. so there is no grass drawn on the paper. and because there was no grass, the cow went away!"

that day for homework, the students were supposed to draw a cat. after telling Raju that she would not accept a blank paper, she was satisfied. the next day, raju submitted a black paper with two yellow dots on it. the teacher asked him " because i told you not to give a blank paper, you took a black one and drew two dots on it. but how are those dots a cat?". raju replied, " see maam, it is a dark room. in a dark room, the cat's eyes glow yellow. but the body does not show. so i have drawn the cat in a dark room!"

the teacher left her job as a teacher the next day.
