7.15 The sun and the wind

7-15麦克风 One day, the Wind approached the Sun and asked. “Hey Sun! Who do you think is the strongest in the world? It’s me - the Wind.” “Oh, really?” The Sun chuckled. “If you don’t believe me, let’s bet on it.” Just then, they saw a man walking through the field. “See that man? Whoever can make him take off his jacket wins.” As soon as the Wind said that, he started to blow as hard as he could. “That’s strange. Why is the wind so strong today?” The man held onto his jacket tightly. The Wind blew harder and harder. But, the stronger the Wind blew, the tighter the man held onto his jacket. “Oh…I’m too tired. I can’t blow anymore.” As soon as the Wind stopped, the Sun came out. “Okay then, it’s my turn now. Watch this.” The Sun laughed and started to shine as bright as she could. “Huh? Why is it suddenly so hot? Oh! it’s too hot.” The man started to undo one button. Then, another and another. But, it was still too hot! So, he took off his jacket and threw it aside. “Urgh… it’s too hot.” “See that, Wind? You embarrassed yourself by trying to show off.” The Wind became so embarrassed that he blew away. 一天，风来到太阳身边，问：“嘿，太阳！你觉得世界上谁最厉害？我——风。”太阳轻声笑着说：“哦？是吗？”（风说：）“如果你不信的话，我们打个赌吧。” 就在那时，他们看到一个人穿过田野走了过来。“看到那个人了吗？谁能让他脱下他的夹克，谁就赢。”风一说完就开始用尽全力刮起来。“真奇怪。今天风怎么这么大？”这个人紧紧地裹住自己的夹克。风越来越卖力地刮着。但是，风刮得越大，这个人就把夹克裹得越紧。（最后风说：）“喔，累死我了。我刮不动了。” 风一停下来，太阳就出现了。（太阳说：）“那好，现在换我了。（你在旁边）瞧着啊。”太阳边笑边用尽全力发光。（人自言自语地说：）“啊？怎么突然变这么热？哇，太热了。”这个人开始解开一个又一个扣子。但是，还是很热。于是，他脱掉自己的夹克，扔到了一边。“哎呀，真是太热了。”（太阳对风说：）“看见了吗，风？正因为你想要显摆自己所以才落到难堪的地步。”风觉得十分尴尬，于是刮走了。
