汉译英,
法国有一个偏僻的小镇,据传有一个特别灵验的泉水,常会出现奇迹,可以医治各种疾病.有一天,一个拄着拐杖,少了一条腿的退伍军人,一跛一跛地走过镇上的马路,旁边的镇民带着同情的口吻说：“可怜的家伙,难道他要向上帝祈求再有一条腿吗?”这话被退伍军人听到了,他转过身对他们说：“我不是向上帝祈求有一条新腿,而是祈求他帮助我,叫我没有一条腿后,也知道如何过日子."

In France there is a remote town with an effective spring which will often bring miracles and cure various kinds of diseases in rumor.One day,a retired soldier with a walking stick extended and with only one leg,hobbled along the town road.Inhabitants nearby talked sympathetically,"What a poor guy he is!Is he going to pray the god for a new leg?" This was heard by the retired soldier.He turned around and said to them,"I am not to pray for a new leg but for advice about how to live without a leg."
