Gold or Corn?

Gold or Corn? One day, a very hungry rooster was searching for food. He was having no luck. It was getting late. But, no matter how hard he scratched the ground, the rooster could not find anything to eat. Soon, the rooster struck something with his feet. " What is this?” he wondered. “ Please let it be food. I really MUST eat, or I shall die. ” He scratched again quickly, eager to uncover what was hidden in the ground. To his disappointment, he found a piece of gold. The rooster stood sadly, looking at the big piece of shiny gold. What good is gold to a rooster?If a human finds gold, he sells it for a fortune. But a rooster cannot do anything with it.

黄金还是玉米? 一天，一只非常饿的公鸡正在找食物。 他运气不佳。天色渐渐晚了。但是，无论他怎么努力地在地上抓，公鸡都找不到任何东西吃。 很快，公鸡用脚踢到了什么东西。“这是什么?”他想。“请让它成为食物吧。”我真的必须吃了，否则我会死的。” 他又飞快地抓了一遍，急切地想找出地下藏着什么东西。令他失望的是，他找到了一块金子。 公鸡伤心地站在那里，看着那块闪闪发光的金子。黄金对公鸡有什么好处?如果一个人发现了黄金，他就会卖掉它赚一大笔钱。但是公鸡不能用它做任何事情。

The rooster walked away thinking, " Gold has no value to me. I would trade all the gold in a king's castle for one small kernel of corn. "

公鸡边走边想:“黄金对我来说一文不值。”我愿意用国王城堡里所有的金子来换一小粒玉米。”
