An old farmer lived on a farm in the mountains with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his holybook. One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the holy book just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?"
曾经有一位住在深山中的农夫,他与他的孙子相依为命。外公有个习惯,就是每天都会很早起来坐在厨房读圣经。有天孙子问外公:“外公!我读过你的圣经,但是我觉得读不懂,即使有些读得懂,但是一合上书我就忘了。那么,读书有什么好处呢?”


The grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied,"Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water."
外公轻轻地把煤放到火炉后,转身回答道:“你去拿着这个煤篮子到河里打一篮子水回来。”

The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a little faster next time," and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before here turned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead.  The old man said, "I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You're just not trying hard enough," and he went out the door to watch the boy try
again. At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got back to the house.  The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty. Out of breath, he said, "See Grandpa,it's useless!"
孙子照着他的话做了,但是他怎么也带不回来水,因为他还没到房子前水已经流完了。外公笑了笑说道:“下次你再快点就行了。”
于是他又拿着篮子回去河里打水。这次他跑得更快了,但是篮子里的水还是跟前面一样,在他到房子前就流完了。他上气不接下气地回到外公那,告诉外公:“用篮子装水是不可能成功的!”然后他换了一个水桶。这时,外公说道:“我要的不是一桶水,而是一蓝子水。你之所以没有打回来是因为你跑的不够快。这次,外公出门看着他打水回来。这时,孙子终于意识到了:用篮子打水是不可能能行的。但是他还是想让外公知道,哪怕他跑得再快,用篮子打水在回到房子前肯定是会流完的。于是他又去打了一次,这次他跑的非常快。但是当他回到外公那时,篮子又空了。他上气不接下气对外公说:”看吧!这根本没用的“。

"So you think it is useless?" the old man said, "Look at the basket." The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basketand was now clean, inside and out.
外公说:”那么,你认为这么做就是没用的?“,外公又说:”看看这个篮子”孙子看了看篮子,才意识到:篮子不一样了!原来那个装煤的又脏又旧的破篮子已经从里到外焕然一新!

Son, that's what happens when you read the book. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and out!!!
孩子,这就是你读书时发生的事情。你或许没有读懂或者记住什么,但是当你在读书时,你会从里到外的改变!!!

哈哈。。。,挺有趣的的故事。中国人喜欢说:书中自有黄金屋,书中自有颜如玉。个人觉得,这种读书方式,太过功利。红楼梦中有一句话:世事洞明皆学问,人情练达即文章。很欣赏这就话,读书首先要明理,否则,只会成为书的奴隶。当读书成为一种习惯,读书就是一种爱好、一种兴趣、一种智慧与与智慧的交流、一种心灵的飨宴、一种心情的愉悦!manyufo你觉得读书的目的是什么呢?想听你的看法。
