谁是胜者 （美国）哈维·麦凯 陈荣生 译
（图片欣赏——莫受宽摄/广州） 一位商人在大街上行走，看到三位年轻姑娘在为她们发现的一只小狗归谁而争吵。 “怎么回事呢？”他问。 “我们发现了这只迷失的小狗，我们都想把它带回家，”一位姑娘说。 “所以我们正在比赛，”第二位姑娘插话说。 “谁撒的谎最大，谁就可以留下它！”第三位姑娘说。 “什么？”商人问。“撒谎是一件可怕的事情。知道吗，我都50多岁了，我这一生中从未撒过一次谎！” 三位姑娘面面相觑。“好吧，先生，”第一位姑娘说。“你赢了。” 煮故事的人，往往会让自己掉入沸水之中。 （译自《成功》） 您若认为此文对教育有益，敬 请 传 阅、推 荐、转 载。 原文如下，若有问题，可留言，我将尽量回答。 Who Is The Winner？ A businessman walking down the street noticed three young girls arguing about a puppy they’d found. “What’s going on here?” he asked. “We found this lost puppy and we all want to take him home,” one little girl said. “So we’re having a contest,” a second girl chimed in. “Whoever tells the biggest lie gets to keep him!” the third girl said. “What?” the businessman asked. “Lying is a terrible thing, girls. Why, I’m over 50 and I’ve never told a single lie in my life!” The girls looked at each other. “OK, mister,” the first girl said. “You win.” Mackay’s Moral: Those who cook up stories usually find themselves in hot water |
