参考译文

大约有10亿人生活在印度。其中许多人靠小型农场维持生计。他们过着平静而简单的生活。一家人照顾农场和牲畜。农场中最重要的牲畜是牛。牛从两个方面帮助农场。它给一家人提供牛奶,还在田里干活。

农民非常关心自己的牛。他们想让牛过得开心。一年中的某些时候,农场不太忙。这时候,人们就把牛洗刷、装饰起来。一年中有两次专为牛举办的节日。这些节日和美国的感恩节类似。

老牛无法在农场继续工作了,但是在印度,杀牛是违法的,所以农民就把老牛放出农场。这些牛在街道上随意漫步。人们把自己的食物给这些牛吃,汽车也要小心谨慎,不要撞到它们。还有一些特殊的动物医院是专为老牛或病牛设置的。政府和某些富人会出钱资助这些医院。

其他国家的人不能理解印度政府为什么要花这么多钱在牛身上,因为印度有许多缺钱的穷人;而印度人说,美国人花在猫、狗身上的钱更多。印度人每年需要照料的牛超过2亿头。他们一直很关心牛。这是一项有着数千年历史的传统。
