The farmer soon came back to get his shoes,but when he put his foot into one of his shoes and felt something hard,he found the coin.
Surprise appeared on his face.He looked at the coin,and then looked around,but no person was to be seen.He then began to put on the other shoe,but his surprise was doubled on finding the second coin.
He then fell on his knees*,looked up to heaven and said aloud thanks.In the thanks he spoke of his wife who was in poor health,and his children without bread.
The student stood there silent,his eyes filled with tears*.“Now,” said the teacher,“are you not much more pleased than if you had played your joke?”
The young man replied,“You’ve taught me a lesson which I will never forget.I’ve really got the true meaning of the words that I have never understood before:It’s better to give than to receive.”
翻译
过了一会儿,农夫回来拿他的鞋子,但当他把脚放入其中的一只时,感觉到一个硬硬的东西,发现那是枚硬币.
他脸上出现了惊奇的表情,他看了看硬币,又看了看四周,一个人都没有.接着他开始穿另一只鞋,又发现了第二枚硬币,他更惊奇了.
他跪了下来,抬头看着天上大声说着感谢.一边说到他妻子身体不好,孩子没面包吃.
这名学生静静地站在那儿,眼里充满了泪水.“现在,”老师说,“你对刚才开的玩笑没觉得那么开心了吧?”
年轻人回答:“你给我上了一堂终身难忘的课,让我懂得了以前从来没弄明白过的这个词的真正含义:给予要比接受更好.”
