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?"
