One day a visitor¹ from the city came² to a small rural³ area⁴ to drive around the country roads, see how the farms looked, and perhaps⁵ to see how farmers earned⁶ their living⁷.

The city man saw⁸ a farmer in his yard⁹, holding a pig up in his hands, and lifting it so that the pig could¹⁰ eat apples from an apple tree. The city man said¹¹ to the farmer, "I see that your pig likes apples, but isn't that quite a waste¹² of time?" The farmer replied," What's time to a pig?"

一天，有一个城市里的游客来到一个小乡村，在乡间路上开着车，想看看农庄是什么样子，也想看看农夫怎样种田过日子。

这位城里人看见一位农夫在宅后的草地上，手中抱着一头猪，并把它举得高高的，好让它能够吃到树上的苹果。城里人对农夫说，“我看你的猪挺喜欢吃苹果的，但是，这不是很浪费时间吗？”那位农夫回答说，“时间对猪有什么意义？”
