有两个人在城市里工作。第一个人会挖一个洞——他会挖,挖,挖。另外一个人就在他后面填洞——填充,填充,填充。这两个男人疯狂地工作;一个挖一个洞,第二个人就填充起来。一个男人经过,从人行道看他们如此努力的工作,但不明白他们在做什么。最后他问他们。他对第一个人说,“我欣赏你的工作,你很努力,但你干什么呢?你挖一个洞,你后面的同伴又把它填掉了!”挖坑人的回答道,“哦,看起来一定很滑稽,今天那个负责种树的家伙是生病了。” There were two guys working for the city. One would dig a hole -- he would dig, dig, dig. The other would come behind him and fill the hole -- fill, fill, fill. These two men worked furiously; one digging a hole, the other filling it up again. A man was watching from the sidewalk and couldn't believe how hard these men were working, but couldn't understand what they were doing. Finally he had to ask them. He said to the hole digger, "I appreciate how hard you work, but what are you doing? You dig a hole and your partner comes behind you and fills it up again!" The hole digger replied, "Oh yeah, must look funny, but the guy who plants the trees is sick today." |
