The clever donkey
聪明的驴
One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. the animal cried piteously for hours as thefarmer tried to figure out what to do.
有一天，农夫的驴掉进了井里。在农夫想办法的时候，可怜的驴叫了好几个小时。
Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it justwasn’t worth it to retrieve the donkey.
最后，农夫决定，驴已经老了，反正井也需要填平；把驴救出来不太值得了。
He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. they all grabbed a shovel and began toshovel dirt into the well.
他请了所有的邻居来帮忙。他们都抄起铲子，开始往井里填土。
At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly.
随后，驴意识到发生了什么事，便发出了令人胆战心惊的叫声。
Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down. a few shovel toads later the farmer finallylooked down the well.
后来，令大家奇怪的是，驴安静了下来。又填了几铲土之后，农夫往井里看了看。
He was astonished at what he saw.with each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey wasdoing something amazing.
他看到的情景让他惊讶不已。驴对砸在背上的每一铲土都做出了非凡之举。
He would shake it off and take a step up.
他把土抖掉，然后往上走一步。
As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it offand take a step up.
随着农夫的邻居们不断往驴身上铲土，驴把土抖掉，再往上走一步。
