中國寓言故事雙語版 第30期:引嬰投江

ing-bottom: 75.2%;">

Once upon a time, a man passing by a river noticed that a grown-up man was going to throw a child he carried in his arms into the river.

從前，有個人路過江邊時，發現一個成年男子抱着一個小孩，準備把他投到江裏去。

At this moment, the child was frightened, crying loudly and shouting in confusion.

這時候，小孩害怕了，嚇得“哇哇”地亂哭亂叫。

The passer-by asked:

那個過路人就問:

"Why are you to throw the child into the river?

“你爲什麼要把孩子投到江裏去?難道不怕他淹死嗎?”

Aren't you afraid he would be drowned?"

那個男一子回答說:

The man answered:"It doesn't matter. His father is good at swimming."

“不要緊，他爸爸是個游泳能手。”

The passer-by then asked:

那個過路人就說:

"His father can swim, but does it follow that the son can also swim without practice?"

“爸爸會游泳，難道他兒子不經過練習，也會游泳嗎?”
