牛和狗

An ox and a dog serve for the same farmer.

一头牛和一只狗同时为一个农夫工作。

One day the dog arrogantly says: “How grand I am! In the daytime, I watch out for the cattle in the meadows; at night, I guard the house. But you…”

一天, 狗骄傲地说着；‘我是多么重要啊！白天我在牧场看护家群，晚上我看家。而你呢…..?”

“Me? How about me?” the ox says

“我？我怎么啦？“牛反问。

“You can only plough or draw a cart,” the dog slightly says.

“你只会犁地或是拉车。”狗轻微地说。

“Yes. It’s true,” the ox says. “But if I don’t plough, what do you guard?”

“是的。你说得没有错，”牛回答道。“但是如果没有我犁地，你看护什么呢？”
