Drawing a snake with legs
One day, some men get a bottle of wine. It’s not enough for each of them to drink. But it’s enough for one man to have a good drink. So they have to decide who will drink this bottle of wine.
Then they have an idea: they have a match-draw a snake. Who is the first , who has the wine.
So they begin to draw. After a while, a man finishes. He looks around and sees other people are still drawing. He thinks : 「I have much time, let me make this snake perfect」. Then he draws 4 legs for the snake. At this moment, another man finishes ,too. He picks up the bottle and begins to drink.
The first man stops him and says: 「I am the first. I should drink the wine」.
another man says: 「 Look at your snake, it has 4 legs. But snakes have no legs. So you draw a wrong snake.」
Then he drinks the wine happily.

譯文:
一天,幾個人得到了一壺酒。它不夠每個人喝,但是它夠一個人好好喝一頓。所以他們決定由誰來喝這壺酒。
然後他們有了一個主意:他們舉行一次比賽—畫一條蛇。誰第一個畫好誰喝酒。
於是他們開始畫。過了一會兒,一個人完成了。他向周圍看了一圈,看見其他人仍然在畫。
他想:我還有很多時間。我來讓這條蛇更完美一些吧。然後他給蛇畫了4條腿。這時,另一個人也畫好了。他拿起酒開始喝了起來。
第一個人攔住他說:「我是第一個畫好的,我應該喝酒」
另一個人說:「看你的蛇,它有4條腿。但是蛇沒有腿。所以你畫了一條錯誤的蛇」
然後他開心的喝起了酒。
