英语故事短文:我写的只有我能读
A farmer can’t read or write. One day he asks a man to write a letter for him. He wants to post the letter to his uncle.
一位农夫不会认字,也不会写字。有一天,他叫一个人帮他写一封信给他舅舅。
“I can’t write you letter,” says the man, “Because I have a bad leg.”
“我不会写你的信”,那个人说,“因为我的腿不行”
“Sir,” says the farmer, “I know, but I can’t see what a bad leg has to do with writing a letter.”
“先生,我知道,但我不知道腿有伤和不能写信有什么关系”
“It has much to do with it,” says the man, “because I can’t walk so far and read the letter to you uncle.”
“关系大了去了”,那个人说,“因为我不能走太远,帮你读你舅舅的信”
“What do you mean, sir?” says the farmer. “His son can read it to him. Why do you need to read if for him?”
“啥意思呢?先生”,农夫不解地问,“他的儿子会把信的内容告诉他,为什么你要给我舅舅读信呢?”
“Don’t you understand,” answers the man, “that only I can read what I write?”
“你不懂”,那个人回答说,“因为我写的字只有我才能看出来”
