Not really knowing an answer, the Chief replied that the winter was going to be cold, and that the members of the village were to collect wood to be prepared for a cold winter. Being a good leader, he then went to the next phone booth(放映棚) and called the National Weather Service and asked, “Is this winter to be cold?” The man on the phone responded, “This winter was going to be quite cold indeed.” ![image](https://upload-images.jianshu.io/upload_images/14189216-0d1c319cdc86ccd3.jpeg?imageMogr2/auto-orient/strip%7CimageView2/2/w/1240) So the Chief went back to speed up his people to collect even more wood to be prepared. A week later he called the National Weather Service again, “Is it going to be a very cold winter?” “Yes”, the man replied, “it’s going to be a very cold winter.” So the Chief went back to his people and ordered them to go and find every scrap (小片) of wood they can find. Two weeks later he called the National Weather Service again “Are you ****absolutely**** sure that the winter is going to be very cold?” “****Absolutely****, we made a study.” the weatherman replied, “The Indians are collecting wood like crazy!” ![image](https://upload-images.jianshu.io/upload_images/14189216-b1ecb0347364ee05.jpeg?imageMogr2/auto-orient/strip%7CimageView2/2/w/1240) 译文(建议自行翻译,如下是来自百度翻译的结果,仅供参考,哈哈): 印第安人在秋天问他们的首领冬天会不会冷。不知道答案,村长回答说冬天会很冷,村里的人要收集木料,为寒冷的冬天做准备。 作为一个好的领导,他去了下一个电话亭,打电话给国家气象局,问:“这个冬天冷吗?电话里的人回答说:“今年冬天真的很冷。” 于是首领回去加速他的人去收集更多的木头准备。一周后,他再次致电国家气象局,“这将是一个非常寒冷的冬天吗?“ “是的,”那人回答,“这将是一个非常寒冷的冬天。”于是酋长回到他的族人那里,命令他们去寻找他们能找到的每一片木头。 两周后,他又给国家气象局打电话,“你确定冬天会很冷吗?”“ “当然,我们做了一个研究。”天气预报说,“印第安人疯狂地收集木头!“ ![image](https://upload-images.jianshu.io/upload_images/14189216-ac757b22682a0357.jpeg?imageMogr2/auto-orient/strip%7CimageView2/2/w/1240)
