Knows the future
Nasreddin was cutting a branch of a tree in his garden. While he was sawing, another man passed in the street. He stopped and said,“Excuse me, but if you continue to saw that branch like that, you will fall down with it.”He said this because Nasreddin was sitting on the branch and cutting it at a place between himself and the trunk of the tree.
Nasreddin said nothing. He thought,“This is some foolish person who has no work to do and goes about telling other people what to do and what not to do.”
The man continued on his way.
Of course, after a few minutes, the branch fell and Nasreddin fell with it.
“My God!”he cried.“That man knows the future!”and he ran after him to ask how long he was going to live. But the man had gone.
預(yù)測未來
Nasreddin正在修剪花園里的一個樹枝。當他正在修剪的時候,另一個人路過時，停下來說,“對不起，如果你繼續(xù)像你那樣鋸樹枝,你將會跌下來”。因為Nasreddin正坐在樹枝上，而他正在鋸他自己和樹干之間的那一段。
Nasreddin什么也不說。他想,“真是一個愚蠢的人，沒有工作做，卻到處告訴其他的人該做什么，什么不該做。”
那個人繼續(xù)走他的路了。
當然，在幾分鐘之后，樹枝斷了，Nasreddin也跟著掉下來了。
“我的天啊!”他大聲喊道，“那個人可以預(yù)測未來!”他立即追趕他想問自己能活多久。但是那人已經(jīng)走遠了。
A Note：
saw n.鋸v.鋸。這里不是.see的過去式
