The Thirsty Ant

　　There was once an ant that was very thirsty.

　　有只蚂蚁口渴了。

　　It ran here and there looking for some water but could not find any.

　　它到处找水喝，可就是找不着。

　　Then suddenly, when the ant was almost ready to die of thirst, a large drop of water fell on it.

　　突然，就在蚂蚁快要渴死的时候，一大滴水落了下来。

　　The Ant drank the water, which saved its life.

　　蚂蚁喝了水，得了救。

　　The water was actually a tear from a young girl who was crying.

　　这滴水实际上是一个正在哭泣的年轻姑娘的泪水。

　　The ant looked up and saw the young girl sitting in front of a huge pile of seeds.

　　蚂蚁抬起头，看见一个年轻姑娘正坐在一大堆种子前。

　　"Why are you sad?" asked the Ant.

　　鈥溎阄�什么这么伤心啊？鈥澛煲衔实�.

　　"I'm the prisoner of a giant, "the girl told the ant. "He won't let me go until I've made three separate heaps of grain, barley and rye out of this huge pile of seeds in which they are all mixed together."
