Once upon a time, there was a town called Eating Utensils.

In addition to people, some dinnerware lived in the town.

除了人们以外，一些正餐餐具居住在这座城镇。

There were bowls, cups, plates, serving platters, and so on.

But, the people did not know how to use the dinnerware to eat their food.

但是，人们不知道怎样用正餐餐具来吃食物。

One day, some new neighbors moved into town.

There were forks, knives, spoons, and chopsticks.

The pieces of dinnerware were really happy and went to welcome the new neighbors.

'Guys, welcome to our town!'

“伙计们，欢迎来到我们的城镇！”

'Let’s live in peace!'

'Alright. And let’s help each other.' So,they helped each other and became good friends. Everyone had a job to do.

But, the chopsticks couldn’t find a job that they could do.

The other utensils began to ignore the chopsticks.

Soon, the chopsticks became sad. One day, all of the chopsticks gathered together to have a talk.

很快，筷子变得忧伤的。一天，所有的筷子聚集到一起讨论。

'Guys, we have to find a way to work. Why should we be ignored by the others?'

“伙计们，我们必须找到一种工作的方法。为什么我们一定要被其他人忽视呢？”

'Because we are useless.'

“因为我们没用。”

'No, we can find a way to be useful. Let’s think.'

“不，我们能找到一种有用的方法。让我们想想。”

They thought about it for a few days. One chopsticks thought of an idea.

He called all of the chopsticks together, again.

“合作一起夹起食物！”

The idea worked. They could pick up the food easily.

The chopsticks were happy, now. They went to the others and showed them what they could do.

“我们能夹起食物！”“说什么？不可能！”
