14 Weather Forecast
14 天气预报
A film crew was on location deep in an inland town. One day an Indian went up to the director and said, "Tomorrow thunder." The next day it thundered.
一个电影摄制组在一个内地小镇工作。一天，一个印度人来到导演跟前告诉他说：“明天打雷。”第二天果然打雷了。
A week later, the Indian went up to the director and said, "Tomorrow windy." The next day, there was a gale.
一周后，印度人又来告诉导演说：“明天刮风。”果然，第二天刮起了一场大风。
The director was very satisfied with the Indian's wisdom, and thought he was a superman. So he told his secretary to hire the Indian to forecast the weather and promised a good salary to him.
导演对印度人的智慧很满意，觉得他是个超人，于是他告诉秘书雇佣该印度人来预报天气，并答应付给他很好的酬劳。
However, after several successful forecasts, the Indian didn't show up for two weeks.
几次预报都很成功，可接下来的两周，印度人却再也没有出现。
Finally the director sent for him. "I have to shoot a big scene tomorrow," said the director, "and I'm depending on you. What will the weather be like?"
最后导演派人去把他叫来了。“我明天要拍一个很大的场景，”导演说，“全靠你了。明天天气如何啊？”
The Indian shrugged his broad shoulders. "Don't know," he said, "Radio is broken. No broadcasting."
印度人耸了耸他的肩膀。“我不知道，”印度人说，“收音机坏了，没办法听广播了。”
