There was 4 once a wood-cutter who had 5 three sons. 曾经有一位伐木工人，他有三个儿子。
He was very proud 6 of the two older boys, but he thought 7 the youngest son was a simpleton. 他以两个大儿子为骄傲，却认为自己的小儿子是个傻瓜。

"Good-morning, friend! I am hungry. Will you please give me one of your pancakes?" 朋友，早上好啊，我饿了，你能给我一块饼吗？
"Not I," said the oldest son. "I might 13 not have enough for myself 14." 不行，我自己吃，还不一定够呢，大儿子说道。
So he began his work, but at the very first stroke 15, his ax 16 cut his arm. 于是他开始干活，但是刚砍了第一斧下去，他便伤到了自己的胳膊。
Then he had to go home without any wood. 接着他便回了家，一片木头也没带回去。

In the forest he met the same little old man, who asked for a piece of cake. 在森林中，他遇见了同一位矮个子老人，他想要一块蛋糕。
"No!" cried the second son. "I might not have enough for myself." 不行，我自己吃还不一定够呢，二儿子大声说道。
