 　　The Artist, the Poor Man, and the Musician艺术家、穷人和音乐家

　　Three men once lived in a small town in Texas. One was a musician, another was an artist, and the other was a poor homeless man. One day the artist was going to start working on a new sculpture, but didn't have the necessary tools to start. He went downtown and saw a poor homeless man. Because the artist was new in town and got lost, he asked the homeless man where the nearest art supply store was. The homeless man told him that it was the red and white building around the corner. The artist looked at him and said thank you. He gave the homeless man a ten-dollar bill with the words "pass it forward" written on the bill. The homeless man took the money and said: "God bless you!"

　　有三个男人曾住在德克萨斯的一个小城镇上。一个是音乐家，另一个是艺术家，还有个是一个贫穷的无家可归的人。有一天，艺术家将开始着手一个新的雕塑，但没有必备的工具来创作。他去了市中心，看到一个可怜的流浪汉。因为这个镇上的艺术家是新来的，所以他迷路了，他问那个流浪汉最近的艺术用品店在哪里。他告诉他在拐角处那里，是一个红色和白色的建筑物。艺术家看了看他，说谢谢你。他给了流浪汉一张10美元，上面写着“把爱传出去”。这个无家可归的人拿了钱，说：“上帝保佑你！”

　　A few hours had passed, and the homeless man started getting hungry. He walked around in town, and saw a young musician playing outside a café. The homeless man sat down and started listening to the music played by the musician. A waiter from the café came out and told the homeless man that he had to leave, because he wasn't buying anything, and other people wanted to sit down and enjoy the music. The musician saw this and told the waiter to leave him alone and that he would like to buy the homeless man something to eat. The waiter looked at the musician and said okay. The homeless man thanked the musician. After he finished eating, he took out the ten-dollar bill and gave it to the musician. The homeless man left.

　　几个小时过去了，流浪汉开始饿了。他走在城里，看见一个年轻的音乐家在咖啡馆。这个流浪汉坐了下来，开始听音乐家演奏的音乐。咖啡馆服务员过来跟流浪汉说他得离开，因为他不买任何东西，还有其他人要来这里享受听音乐。音乐家看到了这一点，并告诉服务员别管他，他会买一些吃的东西给流浪汉。服务员看了看这位音乐家，说：“好吧。”这位流浪汉对这位音乐家表示感谢。他吃完后，拿出十美元给了音乐家，便离开了。

　　After the musician had finished playing at the café, he decided to go to a local art festival with his girlfriend. As they were walking around and looking at all the different paintings and sculptures, the musician's girlfriend saw a sculpture she liked. It was a young man helping out an older man who had fallen down. She wanted to buy it, but didn't have enough money. The musician told her not to worry. He pulled out ten dollars, and gave it to the artist. As the musician and his girlfriend walked away, the artist looked at the ten-dollar bill, and smiled. "Well, look at that, you found your way back home," said the artist.

　　在音乐家在咖啡馆演奏完了的时候，他决定去与女友当地艺术节。他们四处走动，看着所有的不同的绘画和雕塑，音乐家的女朋友看到了一个她喜欢的雕塑。这是一个年轻人帮助一个跌倒了老人，她想买下它，但没有足够的钱。音乐家告诉她不要担心，他拿出十块钱，把它交给了艺术家。在音乐家和他的女朋友走了以后，画家看了看十美元的钞票，笑了。”好吧，看来，你做到了！“艺术家说。
