The Same Action Yields the Same Result
(Originally in English)
A couple of hunters chartered a small plane to fly them to a
forest,and made an appointment with the pilot to come back and
fetch them in about two weeks. At the end of the two weeks,
they had shot a lot of animals that they wanted to load onto the
plane. But the pilot said, "This plane won't be able to take more
than one wild buffalo. You'll have to leave the others behind."
Then the hunters protested, saying, "But last year, another pilot
with the same airplane let us take two buffalos and some other
animals in the plane as well."So the new pilot thought about it.
He was a little bit skeptical, but finally he said, "OK, since you
did it last year, I guess this year we can do it again." Then he
loaded the two buffalos and a few other animals in, and the
plane took off. Five minutes later, it crashed in a neighboring
area.The three men climbed out and looked around, and one
hunter said to the other, "Where do you think we are now?"
The second one surveyed the area and said, "I think we're
about one mile to the left of the place we crashed last year."
同樣的行為,同樣的結(jié)果
有兩個(gè)獵人包機(jī)前往一座森林,到了以后,他們和飛行員約定好兩周后
來接。兩周后,他們射了許多動(dòng)物,而且打算把這些動(dòng)物全部搬上那架
小飛機(jī),可是飛行員說:「這架飛機(jī)除了一頭野牛外,沒辦法再多載了。
你們必須把其他的獵物都留下。」獵人說:「但是去年另一個(gè)飛行員開
一樣的飛機(jī),就讓我們帶兩只水牛,還有一些其他的動(dòng)物上機(jī)!」因?yàn)?BR> 他們這樣*,所以那個(gè)新飛行員想了一想后,盡管還是有點(diǎn)存疑,最
后還是妥協(xié)說:「好吧!如果去年可以做到,今年應(yīng)該也可以。」所以
他裝了兩頭水牛和一些其他的動(dòng)物。結(jié)果飛機(jī)起飛五分鐘后,就墜落在
鄰近的地方。這3個(gè)人從飛機(jī)爬出來看了看四周,其中一個(gè)獵人對(duì)另一
個(gè)說:「你認(rèn)為我們現(xiàn)在在哪兒?」那個(gè)人瞧了一下,說:「我想大概
距離去年墜機(jī)的地方西邊一英哩遠(yuǎn)!」
