A Native American and his friend were in downtown New York City, walking near Times Square in Manhattan. It was during the noon lunch hour and the streets were filled with people.

一个印第安人正和他的朋友一起在纽约市中心，曼哈顿的时代广场附近走着。那时正是午餐时间，街上挤满了人。
Cars were honking their horns, taxicabs were squealing around corners, sirens were wailing, and the sounds of the city were almost deafening. Suddenly, the Native American said, "I hear a cricket."
汽车鸣着喇叭，出租车在拐弯处发出刺耳的声音，警笛呼啸着，城市的喧闹声几乎震耳欲聋。这时那个印第安人突然说："我听见一只蟋蟀在叫。"
His friend said, "What? You must be crazy. You couldn't possibly hear a cricket in all of this noise!"
他的朋友说："什么？你一定疯了，周围这么多噪声，你不可能听见蟋蟀叫！"
"No, I'm sure of it," the Native American said, "I heard a cricket."
"我没疯，我确实是听到了，"印第安人说，"我听见一只蟋蟀的叫声。"
"That's crazy," said the friend.
"别傻了。"朋友说。
The Native American listened carefully for a moment, and then walked across the street to a big cement planter where some shrubs were growing. He looked into the bushes, beneath the branches, and sure enough, he located a small cricket. His friend was utterly amazed.
印第安人侧耳听了一会儿，然后走到马路对面，来到一个种着灌木的大型水泥槽前。他在灌木中搜寻，在树枝下面，他果然找到了一只小蟋蟀。他的朋友非常吃惊。
