There was once a poor man who had nothing in the world but three sons and a fine pear tree, which grew in front of his house. 曾经有一个穷人，他在世上一无所有，只有三个儿子和一棵长在门前的上好梨树。
One day the man said to his sons," Our king is very fond of pears. So I shall send him a fine basketful from our garden." 一天穷人跟他的儿子们说，我们的国王非常喜欢梨子，我想送给他一篮我们园子里的好梨子，
Then he gathered the best pears from the tree and packed them in a basket. 于是穷人从树上摘下了最好的梨子，把他们装到一个篮子里，
"Take these beautiful yellow pears to the king," he said to his oldest son. 把这些诱人的黄梨送给国王吧，父亲跟大儿子说，
"And be sure that you do not let anyone rob 2 you on the way." 路上一定要小心，不要让强盗打劫你。
"I know how to take care of myself, Father," said the boy. 爸爸，我知道应该怎么照顾自己，大儿子说道。
Then he covered the pears with fresh leaves and set out for the king's palace. 于是他用新鲜的叶子盖住了梨子，开始向王宫出发。
After a time the boy came to a fountain 3, where he stopped to drink. 走了一段时间，大儿子来到一处水源旁，他停下来喝了点水。
