一個科學家坐火車去紐約,他的這節(jié)車廂里還有一個農民。為了打發(fā)時間,科學家決定和農民做個游戲。
"I will ask you a question and if you get it wrong, youhave to pay me 1 dollar. Then you ask me a question, and if I get it wrong, you get 10 dollars.You ask me a question first."
“我問你一個問題,如果你答錯了,你給我1塊錢。然后你問我一個問題,如果我答錯了,我給你10塊錢?,F(xiàn)在你先問我一個問題吧。”
The farmer thinks for a while. "I know. What has three legs, takes 10 hours to climb up a palmtree, and 10 seconds to get back down?"
農民想了一會兒,“有了,什么東西長著三條腿,要花10個小時爬上一棵棕櫚樹,下來卻只要10秒鐘?”
The scientist is confused and thinks long and hard about the question. Finally, the train ride iscoming to an end.
科學家被搞糊涂了,他努力地想啊想啊。最后,火車到終點了。
As it pulls into the station, the scientist takes out 10 dollars and gives it to the farmer. "I don'tknow. What has 3 legs, takes 10 hours to get up a palm tree and 10 seconds to get backdown?"
火車進站的時候,科學家拿出10塊錢給農民。“我不知道了。這個長著三條腿,花10個小時爬上一棵棕櫚樹,下來卻只要10秒鐘的到底是什么東西?”
The farmer takes the 10 dolalrs and puts it into his pocket. He then takes out 1 dollar andhands it to the scientist.
農民接過10塊錢放進口袋,又掏出1塊錢遞給科學家。
"I don't know."
“我不知道。”
