请 问 一 段 英 文 对 话 的意思.
There once was a king who loved to eat.When the castle cook grew too old to prepare the meals anymore,the king looked for a new cook.A young man applied for the job.The king said to him,"I want you to cook me the best and most important dish in the whole world."
The night the king sat down at the table.When he looked at the special dish,he exclaimed,"Why,that抯 cow tongue!"
The young man answered,"Yes,it is.Nothing is more important then the tongue if it is used correctly.The tongue is used to teach,to explain,to command,to defend,to calm.Tongues are used to sing to babies and to make bargains.Tongue has to be the most important thing for a king."
"I must say I didn抰 realize that,young man.You抳e opened my eyes.Therefore,tomorrow night,I want you to fix me the worst dish you know."
The next night,the young man served the king cow tongue.The king said,"What goes on here?Last night,tongue was the best dish in the world.Tonight it抯 the worst.How can this be?"
"The difference is what you do with it,sire," said the young man."Tongues make gossip,stir up trouble,and tell lies.Tongues are cruel and hypocritical.Therefore,tongue can be the worst dish in the world."
"Yes,I see.I also see that I need your wisdom in my court.I抣l get someone else to do the cooking."

从前,有一个非常爱吃的国王.当城堡里的厨师太老了以至再也煮不动饭菜的时候,国王想要寻找一名新的厨师.这时一位年轻人前来应征这份工作,国王对他说：“我要你煮出这个世界上最好最重要的一道菜.”
当晚,国王坐在了饭桌前.当他看见了桌上的这道特别料理后,他惊呼：“为什么最重要的菜是牛舌头?”年轻人回答道：“对啊,就是牛舌头.如果它被使用恰当的话没有什么是比舌头更重要的.舌头可以用来触摸、辩解、要求、防御和使人安静；舌头可以用来唱歌给婴儿听,也可以用来做生意.舌头对于一个国王来说是最重要的东西了.”“年轻人,我必须说我并不是这样认为.不过你倒是开阔了我的眼界.因此,我要你明晚再煮出最糟糕的一道菜给我看.”国王说.
第二天晚上,年轻人又为国王端上了牛舌头.国王说：“为什么是这样?昨晚,舌头已经是世界上最好的料理了,今晚又变成了最糟糕的.怎么会这样?”
“它们的不同就在于您怎么样使用它们了,陛下.”年轻人说：“舌头使人闲聊嚼舌根子,引起麻烦,并且可以说谎.舌头是残酷和伪善的.因此,舌头可以说是世界上最糟糕的一道菜了.”
“是啊,我明白了.我同样也明白了我的朝廷也需要你的智慧.明天我会安排别人来烹饪.”
