............... 11. One of the following sentences given below means approximately the same as the proverb: "Don't count your chickens until they are hatched." Choose the one: Some eggs have double yolks, so you can"t really count eggs and chickens. You can"t walk around the henhouse to count the eggs because it will disturb the hens and they won"t lay eggs. It is not really sensible to rely on something that has not yet happened and may not ever happen. Since eggs break so easily, you may not be accurate in your count of future chickens.
