儿童英语故事：我写的只有我能读

　　A farmer can’t read or write. One day he asks a man to write a letter for him. He wants to post the letter to his uncle.

　　一个农民既不会读书也不会写字。一天，他请一个男子为他写一封信。他要把这封信寄给他叔叔。

　　“I can’t write you letter,” says the man, “Because I have a bad leg.”

　　“我不能为你写信，”男子说，“因为我有一条腿坏了。”

　　“Sir,” says the farmer, “I know, but I can’t see what a bad leg has to do with writing a letter.”

　　“先生，”农民说道，“我知道，但是我不明白写信与腿坏了有什么关系。”

　　“It has much to do with it,” says the man, “because I can’t walk so far and read the letter to you uncle.”

　　“有很大关系，”男子说，“因为我不能走那么远为你叔叔读信。”

　　“What do you mean, sir?” says the farmer. “His son can read it to him. Why do you need to read if for him?”

　　“您这是什么意思，先生?”农艺说道：“他的儿子可以读给他听。为什么需要你读给他听呢?”

　　“Don’t you understand,” answers the man, “that only I can read what I write?”

　　“你还不明白吗，”男子说道，“我写的只有我能读得懂。”
