The two monks and the comb
There were two monks(和尚) and they live in the same house. Every morning they went out for food. One day, they went out very early. There are no people on the road, suddenly(突然) they saw a comb(梳子) on the road. They were running up to it at the same time.
“I found it first, It’s mine(我的). ” One of them says. “No, I found it before(在……之前) you, so it isn’t yours(你的). It’s mine. ” The other monk says. They sat on the road and were quarrelling(争吵) for the comb. Morning came and then came the afternoon. But they were still quarrelling.
A little boy came up to them and said, “You are monks. Monks have no hair. What is the use of the comb for you?”
