钓竿:
有个老人在河边钓鱼,一个小孩走过去看他钓鱼,老人技巧纯熟,所以没多久就钓上了满篓的鱼,老人见小孩很可爱,要把整篓的鱼送给他,小孩摇摇头,老人惊异的问道:「你为何不要?」小孩回答:「我想要你手中的钓竿。」老人问:「你要钓竿做什么?」小孩说:「这篓鱼没多久就吃完了,要是我有钓竿,我就可以自己钓,一辈子也吃不完。」 我想你一定会说:好聪明的小孩。错了,他如果只要钓竿,那他一条鱼也吃不到。因为,他不懂钓鱼的技巧,光有鱼竿是没用的,因为钓鱼重要的不在“钓竿”,而在“钓技”。 有太多人认为自己拥有了人生道上的钓竿,再也无惧于路上的风雨,如此,难免会跌倒于泥泞地上。就如小孩看老人,以为只要有钓竿就有吃不完的鱼,像职员看老板,以为只要坐在办公室,就有滚进的财源。
1.do you know my work?
one night a hotel caught fire, and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes.
two men stood outside and looked at the fire.
“before i came out,” said one,“i ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money. people don't think of money when they're afraid. when anyone leaves paper money in a fire, the fire burns it. so i took all the bills that i could find.no one will be poorer because i took them.”
“you don't know my work,” said the other.
“what is your work?”
“i'm a policeman.
“oh!” cried the first man. he thought quickly and said,“and do you know my work?”“no,”said the policeman.
“i'm a writer. i'm always telling stories about things that never happened.”
译文:(自己简单翻译)
你知道我是干什么的吗?
一天晚上,一家旅馆失火,住在这家旅馆里的人穿着睡 衣就跑了出来。
两个人站在外面,看着大火。
“在我出来之前,”其中一个说:“我跑进一些房间,找到了一大笔钱。人在恐惧中是不会想到钱的。如果有人把纸币留在火里,火就会把它烧成灰烬。所以我把我所能找到的钞票都拿走了。没有人会因为我拿走它们而变得更穷。”
“你不知道我是干什么的。”另一个说。
“你是干什么的?”
“我是警察。”
“噢!”第一个人喊了一声。他灵机一动,说:“那你知道我是干什么的?”“不知道。”警察说。
“我是个作家。我总是爱编一些从未发生过的故事。”
