42 Two Goats on the Bridge
One day a goat started to cross a little bridge. At that very minute, another
goat started out from the other side of the bridge.
When they saw one another, they knew that one of them would have to go back.
"Go back!?cried the first goat. "Where is no room for you to pass here while I
am crossing."
"It is you who must go back!?cried the other goat. "You can start again after
I cross over.?The first goat said as he was in the right and would not give
way.
"We will see!"cried the other goat, and they started to fight. In another
minute, the two goats fell into the water. A man who was fishing saw the
fight. He laughed as he pulled the goats out of the water. "You see,?said he.
"When everyone thinks he is right, something always goes wrong!"

兩隻山羊在橋上
有一天，一隻山羊開始過一座小橋。就在同時，另一隻山羊從橋的另一頭開始過橋。
當他們看到對方時，他們知道他們中的.一個必須得退回去。 “回去！”第一隻山羊喊道，“我過橋的時候沒有地方讓你過去。” “是你必須回去！”另一隻山羊叫道。
“我過去以後你再開始過。”第一隻羊說。他覺得自己是對的，所以他不肯讓路。 “我們走着瞧！”另一隻山羊喊道，然後他們開始打起來。 很快，兩隻羊都掉到了水裏。
一個正在釣魚的人看到了這場爭鬥。他笑着把山羊從水裏拉了出來。 “你們看，”他說，“當每個人都覺得自己是正確的時候，就一定會出事！”
