“Don’t say anything about the elephant before I sell it; then I will give you some meat.”
“在我把大象卖出去之前你一句话也不要说，那么我会给你一些肉。”
“All right.” says the young man.
“好的。”那位年轻人说。
After the old man sells the elephant, he gives the young man some meat and says, “How can you see the bad ears of the elephant?”
老人卖出大象之后，他给了年轻人一些肉然后说，“你是怎么看到大象的坏耳朵的?”
“I didn’t see the bad ears,” says the young man.
“我没有看到坏耳朵，”年轻人说。
“Then why do you look at the elephant slowly?” asks the old man.
“那你为什么要慢慢地看着大象?”老人问。
The young man answers, “Because I have never seen an elephant before, and I want to know what it looks like.”
年轻人回答：“因为我之前从没见过大象，我想知道它长什么样子。”
