The World's Greatest Swordsman
世界上最偉大的擊劍手
At an exhibition of the world's best swordsman, the third-place fencer took the stage. A fly was released, and with an arc of his sword he cut the fly in half. The crowd cheered. Then the second-place man sliced a fly into quarters. A hush fell in anticipation of the world's greatest swordsman.
在一場世界最佳擊劍手表演中，排名第三的擊劍手上場了。一只蒼蠅放了出來，劍劃了一個弧，他將蒼蠅劈成了兩半。觀眾歡呼起來。緊接著排名第二的人將一只蒼蠅切成了四半?，F場一陣沉默，人們期盼著世界上最偉大的擊劍手出場。
His blade came down in a mighty arc - but the insect continued on its way! The crowd was aghast. The greatest swordsman had missed his target completely, yet he continued to smile.
他的劍鋒以一個巨大的弧線劃了下來——然而那只昆蟲還在繼續飛行!觀眾被驚呆了。最偉大的擊劍手完全錯過了他的目標，然而他還在微笑著。
"Why are you so happy?" someone yelled. "You missed!"
“你為什么這么高興？”有人嚷道，“你沒擊中!”
"Ah," replied the swordsman, "you weren't watching very carefully. They fly lives, yes - but he will never be a father."
“啊，”劍手答道，“你剛才沒有很仔細地看。蒼蠅還活著，是的——但他永遠也做不成爸爸了?！?/p>
