　　The official replied:

　　"Please don't worry. I have prepared 100 `tall hats'，and will present one to each and every person I meet. I'm sure all the local people will be pleased."

　　在古代，有一個在京城朝廷里做官的人，奉命去外地做官。臨行前，他去老師家告別。老師叮囑說:

　　“外地的官不容易做，應(yīng)當(dāng)謹(jǐn)慎小心些才好。”

　　那個做官的人回答說:

　　“請老師放心，我準(zhǔn)備了一百頂高帽子，逢人便送他一頂，管叫地方上人人高興。”

　　老師生氣地說:

　　“我們都是正人君子，怎么可以這樣做呢?”

　　The official pretended he had no way out and said:

　　"Very few people under heaven are like you who dislike being flattered or presented with tall hats."

　　Hearing this, the teacher was very much pleased. He nodded and said:

　　"What you said is true, too."

　　After the official said farewell to his teacher and went out, he said to his friend:

　　"Of my 100 `tall hats'，now only 99 are left."

　　那個做官的人裝著無可奈何的樣子說:

　　“天下不喜歡戴高帽子的人實在太少了啊!像老師您這樣的又能有幾個呢!”

　　老師聽了很高興，點點頭說:

　　“你講的也不錯!”

　　那個做官的人告別老師出來后，對朋友說:

　　“我的一百頂高帽子，現(xiàn)在只剩下九十九頂了!”
