Johnson and the Smell of Soup

One day,a poor man who had only one piece of bread to eat

was walking past a restaurant.

There was a large pot soup on the table.

The poor man held his bread over the soup,

so the steam from the soup went into the bread,and gave it a good smell.

Then he ate the bread.

The restaurant owner was very angry at this,

and he asked the man for money,in exchange for the steam from the soup.

The poor man had no money,

so the restaurant owner took him to Johnson,who was a judge at that time.

Johnson thought about the case for a little while.

Then he took some money from his pocket.

He held the coins next to the restaurant owner's ear,and shook them,

so that they made a jingling noise."What was that?"asked the restaurant owner.

"That was payment for you,"answered Johnson.

"What do you mean? That was just the sound of coins!"

protested the restaurant owner.

"The sound of the coins is payment for the smell of the soup,"

answered Johnson."Now go back to your restaurant."

【篇二】译文

约翰逊和汤的味道

一天，一个穷人手里拿着一块蛋糕，

经过饭店。

饭店的桌子上有一口大锅，

于是他拿起蛋糕悬在汤的上面，

让汤的蒸汽进入面包，从而得到一个香馍。

然后他吃得津津有味。

饭店老板看到这很愤怒要这个穷人为汤的蒸汽付钱，

要这个穷人为汤的蒸汽付钱。

因为这个穷人身无分，

所以老板将带到法官约翰逊面前。

约翰逊想了一会儿，

然后他从口袋里拿出一些钱。

他把铜板放在饭店老板的耳旁，然后摇动它们，

使它们发出丁丁当当的声音。"那是什么?"饭店老板问。

那是付给你的钱。"约翰逊回答道。

"你是什么意思？那只不过是铜板的声音！"

饭店老板抗 议道。

"铜板的声音用来支付汤的味道，"

约翰逊回答道，"现在你可以回饭店了。"
