兩口鍋

　　When the water rose they both floated off down the river. The earthen pot tried to stay away from the brass one.

　　So the brass pot cried out, "Fear nothing, friend, I will not hit you."

　　"But I may come in contact with you," said the earthen pot. "If I come too close, whether I hit you or you hit me, I shall suffer for it."

　　After that the earthen pot floated away.

　　兩口鍋

　　河中漂流著一個(gè)瓦鍋和一個(gè)銅鍋。

　　每當(dāng)潮漲潮落時(shí)，瓦鍋就盡量地遠(yuǎn)離銅鍋。銅鍋大叫：“別害怕，朋友，我不會(huì)撞你的。”

　　“但是我有可能會(huì)和你接觸，”瓦鍋對銅鍋說，“如果我離你太近，無論是你碰到我，或者是我自己不小心碰到你，我都會(huì)碎的。”

　　然后，瓦鍋就漂走了。
