49 The end of a dream美梦告终
Tired of sleeping on the floor, a young man in Teheran saved up for years to buy a real bed. For the first time in his life, he became the proud owner of a bed which had springs and a mattress. Because the weather was very hot, he carried the bed on to the roof of his house. He slept very well for the first two nights, but on the third night, a storm blew up. A gust of wind swept the bed off the roof and sent it crashing into the courtyard below. The young man did not wake up until the bed had struck the ground. Although the bed was smashed to pieces, the man was miraculously unhurt. When he woke up, he was still on the mattress. Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man sadly picked up the mattress and carried it into his house. After he had put it on the floor, he promptly went to sleep again.
厌倦了睡地板,德黑兰的一个年轻人积攒了多年买了一张真正的床。这是第一次在他的生命,他自豪地拥有了一张既有弹簧和床垫。由于天气很热,他便把床上他家的屋顶。头两天晚上,他睡得很好,但第三天晚上起了风暴。一阵大风把床从屋顶,把它摔碎在下面的院子里。年轻人直到床撞到地上没有醒来。虽然床摔碎了,人却奇迹般地没有受伤。当他醒来时,仍然躺在床垫上。看着木头和金属的碎片在他周围,伤心地捡起了床垫,把它拿进了屋。他把它放在地板上,他很快睡着了。
