Once there was a golfer whose ball landed on an anthill(蟻冢).
從前有個高爾夫球手，他把球打到了一座蟻丘上。
Rather than move the ball, he decided to hit it where it lay. He gave a mighty swing. Clouds of dirt and sand and ants exploded from the spot. Everything moved but the golf ball. It sat on the same spot.
他沒有移動球的位置，而是決定就地擊球。於是他使勁一揮球杆，塵土和着螞蟻，四處飛揚。所有的東西都動了，除了那隻球，它呆在原地，一動沒動。
So he tried another shot. Clouds of dirt and sand ants went flying again. The golf ball didn't even wiggle.
於是，他準備再次出擊。又是一陣塵土飛揚，螞蟻們也再次跟着遭殃。而高爾夫球還是紋絲不動。
Two ants survived. One dazed ant said to the other. "Whoa! What are we going to do?"
兩隻螞蟻倖免於難，一隻暈暈乎乎地對另一隻說：“哇，我們怎麼辦啊?”
Said the other ant, "I don't know about you, but I'm going to get on the ball."
另一隻螞蟻說：“我不知道你怎麼想，但是我準備爬到那隻球上去。”
