One day, a guest was making drawings for the King of the State of Qi.

　　一天，有位客人為齊王作畫(huà)。

　　The King of Qi asked him:

　　齊王問(wèn)他:

　　"What do you think is the most difficult thing to draw?"

　　“你認(rèn)為畫(huà)什么東西最難?”

　　The guest answered:

　　客人回答說(shuō):

　　"Dogs and horses are the most difficult to draw."

　　“畫(huà)狗、畫(huà)馬最難了。”

　　"Then what is the easiest thing to draw?" the King of Qi asked again.

　　“那么，畫(huà)什么東西最容易呢?”齊王又問(wèn)道。

　　"Ghosts are the easiest to draw," the guest answered. "People are familiar with dogs and horses, which they see every day, so dogs and horses are the most difficult to draw. As to ghosts, no one has ever seen them, so one can draw them any way one likes. Therefore, ghosts are the easiest to draw."

　　客人回答說(shuō): “畫(huà)鬼最容易。因?yàn)楣�、馬人人都知道，天天都看見(jiàn)，所以最難畫(huà)。至于鬼呢，誰(shuí)也沒(méi)有見(jiàn)過(guò)，想怎么畫(huà)就怎么畫(huà)，所以最容易畫(huà)。”
