【英文原文】
摘要:一天,三个男人远足时意外的遇到一条波涛汹涌的大河。他们需要到河对岸去,但对如何过河一筹莫展。
One day, three men met with a huge river, when they were hiking. Though the waves were rolling on, they should cross the river. But they could find no way out about how to cross the river.
One of them prayed, “God, please give me the strength to swim over the river.” In a puff of wind, God granted to him strong, powerful arms and legs. It took him about two hours to swim over the river and for twice he was nearly drowned.
Having seen that, another man prayed to God, “My God, please endow me with the strength to cross the river and tools.” In a puff of wind, God gave him a boat. He spent around an hour rowing across the river, and also, his boat almost turned over for twice.
Having sighted the results of those two men, the third man prayed too, “God, please grant me with the strength and tools to cross the river and wisdom.” In a puff of wind, God turned him into a woman. She had a look at a map, and walked upward along the river for two hundred yards, and then crossed a bridge.
