喬治·華盛頓和馬
once a neighbour stole once of Washington's horse. Washington went a police to the neighbour's farm
to get the horse, but the neighbour refused to the neighbour's farm to get the horse, but the
neghbour refused to give the horse up; he claimed that it was his horse.
Whshington placed both of his hands over the eyes of the horse and said to the neighbour. "If this
is your horse, then you must tell us in which eye he is blind."
"In the right eye!" the neighbour said.
Washington took his hand from the right eye of the horse and showed the police officer that the horse
was not blind tn the right eye.
"Oh, I have made a mistake, " said the neighbour."he is blind in the lift eye."
Washington then showed that the horse was not blind in the lift eye either.
"I have made another mistske," said the neighbour.
"Yes, "said the police officer, "and you have also proven that the horse does not belong to you. You must return it to Mr. Washington."
一次,一個鄰居偷走了華盛頓的一匹馬。華盛頓和一名警官到這個鄰居的農場去要回這匹馬,但是鄰居卻拒絕交馬,
他說那是他的馬。
華盛頓把雙手遮出馬的眼睛對這位鄰居說,“如果這是你的馬,那你一定能告訴我它的哪一只眼睛是瞎的。”
“右眼!”這位鄰居說。
華盛頓把手從馬的右眼上拿開并主警官看到了馬的右眼并沒有瞎。
“呼,我弄錯了,”鄰居說。
“是的,警官說,”你也已經證明了這匹馬不是屬于你的,你必須把它還給華盛頓先生。”
