非洲女性的奇闻趣事？英文双语对照

有个人有两个妻子，第一个有钱，第二个贫穷。她穷得连一根布条也没有，只好用树皮把孩子背在背上。她每天扫树叶卖掉来维持生活。

　　有一大，她像往常一样，背着孩子到树林里去扫树叶，她把孩子放到地上，自己走到林子深处去了。她走了不久，一只猴子抱起小孩，爬到树上，逗着他玩。女人回转来，不见了小孩，便放声大哭。

　　这时猴子正抱着小孩，从一棵树跳到另一棵树，闹着玩。

　　小孩听见母亲的哭声，他也哭了，女人抬头一看，看见树上的猴子抱着她的小孩。

　　女人便唱起一首歌，猴子听见歌声，便跳起舞来，慢慢从树上下来，把孩子交给他母亲。

　　猴子问这女人：“你怎么落到这个地步?你是这样一个美妙的歌手，可每天还到这里来扫树叶。”

　　女人回答说：“我太穷了，只能靠这个来糊口。”

　　这时猴子便说：“沿着这条路走，你会看见左边有条小路，再沿着小路走，不久就会看见一棵树结满了果子，一些果子会朝你喊叫：‘摘下我!摘下我!’你不要摘它们，而要去摘下那些不作声的果子。”女人按照猴子说的那样做了。

　　她走到了那棵结满果子的树旁，一些果子请求：“摘下我吧，摘下我吧!”但是她没有摘它们，只摘下那些不作声的果子。然后她回来，把一切讲给猴子听，并且把摘的果子给她看。

　　猴子吩咐她：“你回到家里，关上门，把果子切开。”女人回到家，把果子切开，果子里面尽是金子和银子。她把金子银子分成三份，她自己、她丈夫、她丈夫的第一个老婆各人一份。可那个女人嫌少了，并且说：“我自己知道怎样去拿的。”

　　第二天，她也带上孩子，走到丛林深处，扔掉背带，用根树枝系上孩子，像穷女人做的那样。然后把孩子放到地上，自己便到处闲逛去了，开头猴子不在，后来回来了，看见了孩子，觉得很奇怪，他心想：“难道这个女人是这样的忘恩负义，或者是那样贪得无厌?总之要弄清楚，她为什么又来了。”

　　猴子抱起孩子，爬到树上，逗着他玩。女人看见孩子不见了，就像前一个一样唱起歌，猴子也像那次一样跳着舞，来到地上。

　　随后猴子把小孩交给女人，问她：“昨天给你的东西你嫌少了吗!”

　　有钱的女人不想承认昨天来的是另一个女人，便回答说：“是的，太少了，我还想要多一些。”

　　于是猴子便像上次对那个女人讲的那样，叫她只拿那些不作声的果子。但是女人来到树前，她想：“我才不呢，这猴子把我看成什么人了!我没有这样笨!”

　　她就把那些喊“摘我，摘我”的果子摘下来，然后回来拿给猴子看，猴子叫她回去把果子切开。

　　女人照猴子说的做了。但果子切开以后，那里面不是金子和银子，而是各种各样的爬虫和猛兽，它们把女人一块一块撕碎吃掉了。
