伴隨年齡而來的智慧
A guy is 80 years old and loves to fish.<br>
<br>
一個80歲的老先生喜歡釣魚。<br>
<br>
He was sitting in his boat the other day when he heard a voice say, 'Pick me up.'<br>
<br>
一天，他坐在船上釣魚的當下聽到一個聲音說：「把我拿起來。」<br>
<br>
He looked around and couldn't see anyone.<br>
<br>
他四處張望，卻四下無人。<br>
<br>
He thought he was dreaming when he heard the voice say again, 'Pick me up.'<br>
<br>
當他又聽到「把我拿起來」時，他以為是他的幻覺。<br>
<br>
He looked in the water and there, floating on the top, was a frog.<br>
<br>
他往水中定神一看，那裡正有一隻青蛙浮在水面上。<br>
<br>
The man said, 'Are you talking to me?'<br>
<br>
老先生問道：「你在跟我說話嗎？」<br>
<br>
The frog said, 'Yes, I'm talking to you.'<br>
<br>
青蛙回道：「對，就是我啊！」<br>
<br>
Pick me up then, kiss me and I'll turn into the most beautiful woman you have ever seen.<br>
<br>
將我拿起來，吻我，我就會變為你今生所見最漂亮的女人。<br>
<br>
I'll make sure that all your friends are envious and jealous because I will be your bride!'<br>
<br>
我確定你的朋友是既羨慕又嫉妒，因為我即將成為你的新娘。<br>
<br>
The man looked at the frog for a short time, reached over, picked it up carefully, and placed it in his front pocket.<br>
<br>
老先生凝視青蛙片刻後，伸出手，很小心地托起青蛙放入他前面的口袋裡。<br>
<br>
The frog said, 'What, are you nuts? Didn't you hear what I said? I said kiss me and I will be your beautiful bride.'<br>
<br>
青蛙說：「怎麼，你瘋啦？你沒聽我說嗎？我說，吻我，然後我就會成為你美麗的新娘。」<br>
<br>
He opened his pocket, looked at the frog and said,<br>
<br>
'Nah, at my age I'd rather have a talking frog.'<br>
<br>
他撥開他的口袋，看著青蛙說：「算了，以我這樣的年紀，我寧願有一隻會說話的青蛙。」<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
"人到達一個年齡，清楚甚麼該要，甚麼不該要，是一種智慧。 "<br>
