背誦為王第一冊第42課：Two Goats on the Bridge “兩只山羊在橋上”
One day a goat started to cross a little bridge. At that very minute, another goat started out from the other side of the bridge. When they saw one another, they knew that one of them would have to go back. 'Go back!' cried the first goat. 'There is no room for you to pass here while I am crossing.' 'It is you who must go back!' cried the other goat. 'You can start again after I cross over.' The first goat said as he was in the right and would not give way. 'We will see!' cried the other goat, and they started to fight. In another minute, the two goats fell into the water. A man who was fishing saw the fight. He laughed as he pulled the goats out of the water. 'You see,' said he. 'When everyone thinks he is right, something always goes wrong!'
有一天，一只山羊開始過一座小橋。就在同時，另一只山羊從橋的另一頭開始過橋。當他們看到對方時，他們知道他們中的一個必須得退回去。 “回去！”第一只山羊喊道，“我過橋的時候沒有地方讓你過去?！?“是你必須回去！”另一只山羊叫道?！拔疫^去以后你再開始過。”第一只羊說。他覺得自己是對的，所以他不肯讓路。 “我們走著瞧！”另一只山羊喊道，然后他們開始打起來。 很快，兩只羊都掉到了水里。一個正在釣魚的人看到了這場爭斗。他笑著把山羊從水里拉了出來。 “你們看，”他說，“當每個人都覺得自己是正確的時候，就一定會出事！”
