He was a little, wrinkled, all skin and bones, old man and lived all alone. No one knew much about him. One day he got a bad cold and he called for a doctor.
他是一個小老頭，皮膚皺縮，瘦得皮包骨頭，自己一個人住。大家對他都不太了解，有一天，他得了重感冒，請了醫生過來。
While the doctor was examining the old man, he asked, "Haven't you a trend who could come in to look after you?" "No, I have no friends--never had any." the old man replied.
給老人檢查時，醫生問：“你沒有朋友來照看你嗎？”“沒有，我沒有朋友——一直都沒有。 ”老人回答。
"What you've lived in this village all your life and never had a friend! " ... "Well, I am not ashamed to say that I am passed sixty-four years but I never met anyone I could call a friend for long.
“什么！你在村子里住了一輩子，居然從未有過一個朋友!” “活了64年卻沒有遇到一個值得長久交往的朋友，我沒有什么不好意思地。他們不是這差。 就是那差。 ”
If it isn't one thing wrong with them, it's another" "Come, come our village head mart, Mr. Li, will surely come to your aid if he knows you are sick I am sure you too know him."
“好啦，好啦!假如我們地村長李先生知道你病了，一定會來幫你地。 你一定知道他吧。 ” “沒錯， 我認識他，”
Of course, I know him, " replied the old man, "but he is such a bore to hear him talk, you'd imagine the world had nothing in it but his wheat field and how wonderful and healthy his pigs are."
老人回答，“不過，他這個人很討厭，跟他說話。你會覺得世界上除了他的麥田和他那壯實、健康的豬，就沒有別的東西了。 ”
"Then what about Mr.Ma who lives down the road?" "A more selfish fellow l ever came across, though admit he has got a head on him. He has traveled and read many books and he's mighty interesting to talk to.
“那么在這條街上住的馬先生如何呢？”“雖然我承認他有點兒聰明，可他是我見過的最自私地家伙。 他四處旅行。 讀過很多書，和他聊天會非常有意思。
He used to come in here a lot at one time. But he would come only when he felt like doing so and he would stay away for long periods of time.
有一段時間，他經常來我這里。不過。 他想來地時候才會來，并且會一連好長時間都不出現。
I don't call that neighborly. "The doctor laughed."You can't bring up anything against Mr. Zhou? Everyone loves him." "You're right," agreed the old man. "
我可不喜歡他這樣的鄰居。 ” 醫生只好笑了笑：“你說什么也不能找出周先生地毛病吧?所有人都喜歡他。 ”“你說地沒錯，”老人表示認可，
Zhou would live on my doorstep if I let him He's a bit of a wit and rattling good company, but his noisy tongue makes my poor head ache."
“假如我愿意。 周先生會與我住得很近。 他很聰明，是個很好的伴兒。 可他說起話來地聲音吵得我頭疼。 ”
"I'm afraid you see so much of your neighbor's failings that you're blind to their virtues. You're a hard nut to crack, old many anyway, please call me if you need me.
“恐怕是你太注重鄰居們地缺點而忽略了他們的優點。 老先生，給您服務可真難！無論如何，假如需要我地時候，你就叫我。
As a doctor I will attend to you regardless whether you like me or not" The doctor remarked as he took up his bag and hat to leave. The door banged and not a word of "thank you" was heard.
身為一名醫生。 無論你喜不喜歡我。 我都會照看你的！” 醫生說著就拿起帽子離開了。 門“嘣”的一聲就關上了，老人連一句“謝謝”都沒說。
