Question

There was a small bridge over a river. One day, a goat was crossing this bridge. Just at the middle of the bridge, he met another goat. There was no room for them to pass, so one goat said to the other, "Go back. There is no room for both of us to cross. " "Why don't you go back?" said the other goat. "You must go back", said the first goat," because I am stronger than you. " "You are not stronger than I," said the second goat. "We will see about that," said the first goat, and he put down his horns(羊角 )to fight. “Stop !”, said the second goat. "If we fight, we will both fall into the river and drown (淹死). I have an idea--I shall lie down, and you may walk over me. " Then the second goat lay down on the bridge, and the first goat carefully walked over him.
