[00:16.28]One day,an old man,
[00:18.25]a boy and a donkey are walking along a road.
[00:21.93]They are traveling from their village
[00:23.75]to the town.
[00:25.47]The donkey is carrying two heavy bags of pears.
[00:29.76]The old man is going to sell the pears
[00:31.79]in the market.
[00:33.99]Along the way,they meet a man.
[00:37.04]The man starts talking to the old man.
[00:40.46]"Hey,old man!You have a donkey.
[00:43.67]Why don't you ride on the donkey?
[00:46.51]It's silly not to ride on the donkey,isn't it?"
[00:50.68]The old man looks at the donkey.
[00:53.08]"Yes,that man is right.The donkey is strong.
[00:57.70]It's silly not to ride on the donkey."
[01:00.88]He looks at the boy.
[01:03.57]"You ride on the donkey and I'll walk."
[01:07.13]"All right,Grandpa,"says the boy,
[01:09.83]as he climbs onto the donkey.
[01:11.83]A little while later,they meet an old woman.
[01:15.39]The old woman shouts out and points to the boy.
[01:18.26]"Hey,you!"she says to the boy.
[01:20.64]"Why are you riding on the donkey?
[01:23.91]You should let your grandfather
[01:25.72]ride on the dokey.He's not as strong as you.
[01:30.03]Let him ride on the donkey and you walk."
[01:33.53]"Yes,she's right,"thinks the boy.
[01:36.84]"I'm young and Grandpa is old.
[01:39.70]I'll let him ride the donkey."
[01:42.43]The boy gets off the donkey,
[01:44.17]and the old man climbs onto the naimal.
[01:47.11]the boy walks beside the donkey.
