16.Farmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbours.For more than 30years,they had been getting along very well.Then their good relationship broke.It began with a small thing,then bitter(仇恨的) words,and then weeks of silence.One morning Farmer John woke up to find a stream(小溪) between the two farms."It must be Bob,"John thought.
Then one day there was a knock on John's door.He opened it to find a carpenter(木匠) standing at the doorway.
"I'm looking for a few days'work,"the carpenter said.
"I do have a job for you,"John said."Look across the stream at that farm.That's my neighbour Bob.He dug(挖) a stream between the two farms.I want you to build a fence(栅栏)-an 8-foot fence.I don't want to see his place or his face any more.I don't have such a neighbour!"
The carpenter said,"I think I know what to do,sir,and I'll be able to do a job that makes you happy."
About sunset when the farmer returned,the carpenter had just finished his job.The farmer's eyes opened wide.There was no fence there at all!
It was a bridge!And the neighbour,Bob,was coming across,with his hand outstretched(伸出)."Hi,John!You're quite a guy to build this bridge!"
Then they met in the middle,taking each other's hands."I'm terribly sorry for what I have said and done.We should be good to each other,"said Farmer Bob.
Then they turned to see the carpenter,who was ready to go."No,wait!Stay a few days.I have a lot of other jobs for you,"said Farmer John."I'd love to stay,"the carpenter said,"but I have more bridges to build."
