A Story
Once in the ancient Kingdom of Zheng there was a man who wanted to buy himself a pair of shoes. He took the measurement of his own feet with a piece of string. Then he went to the market. He was looking at some shoes at the shoe-maker's when he realized he had left the measurement at home. He put down the shoes and rushed home to fetch it. By the time he returned with the measurement the market had been closed. So he failed to get his shoes.
Somebody asked him, "Why didn't you just try the shoes on your feet?" He answered, "I would rather trust the measurement than my feet."

有一次,在古王國的一個(gè)男人想買一雙鞋子。他用一根繩子把自己的腳測(cè)量。然后他去了市場(chǎng)。當(dāng)他意識(shí)到自己在家里的時(shí)候,他正在看鞋的時(shí)候,他正在看一看鞋子。他把鞋子放下,趕緊回家去取。當(dāng)他回來時(shí),市場(chǎng)已經(jīng)關(guān)閉了。所以他沒有得到他的鞋子。
有人問他:“你為什么不試試你腳上的鞋子?”他回答說:“我寧愿相信我的腳,也不愿相信我的腳。”
