The Day the Balls Had a Fight
One day，all of the balls in the world gathered together. The balls began to fight each other.Then，they divided into four groups. The balls chose leaders for their groups.They chose as their leaders the ping-pong ball，baseball，basketball，and soccer ball. Every ball thought that his own group had the best skills. Let's listen to them.“Hey！A ball should be light and small，so he can move around quickly.Who is lighter and smaller than I am？”
“Hey！You're wrong！You're so light that the wind blows you away.Besides，a ball should be fast.And who's faster than I am？”
“Ha，you guys don't understand.If you hit people，they will get hurt.A ball should be big，but not too heavy.That way no one will get hurt.”
“You guys are so foolish.Is it good if you are good at only one thing？A ball should be well-rounded.Look at me. I'm almost as fast as a baseball. I'm slightly lighter and smaller than a basketball.So，I run fast when I have to.And，I protect myself from getting hurt，because I'm so big.”
“I don't see an end to this argument.Let's make a bet.”
“Fine.What kind of bet？How about a bet on who's the fastest？”“No，that won't help.”
“Let's find out which ball people like to play with the most.”
“That sounds good.The ball that people play with the most will be named the best ball.”
“There are so many balls，where will we play？”
“I think I know what to do.Listen to me.”
So，all of the balls listened to the basketball. Every ball agreed with the basketball. Every four years，people play in the Olympic Games.People cheer for their favorite sports.Other balls are there，too.They play with volleyballs，tennis balls，and other balls，too.They all want to become the people's favorite balls.
译文：球类打架的日子
一天，世界上所有的球类聚集到了一起。
球们开始互相攻击。然后，他们分成了4组。
球们选择他们自己组的领导。他们选出乒乓球，棒球，篮球和足球。作为他们的领导者。
每一个球都认为他自己的组有最好的技能。
让我们听听他们说的。
“嘿！一个球应该是轻的和小的，因此他能来回移动的非常快。谁比我还轻还小？”
“嘿！ 你错了！你是如此的轻以至于风可以把你吹跑。另外，一个球应该是快的。那么谁比我更快？”
“哈，你们这些家伙不明白如果你们击中了人们，他们将会受伤的。一个球应该是大的，但是不要太重。这样没有人会受伤。”
“你们这些家伙是如此的愚蠢。如果你只擅长一件事情就是好的吗？一个球应该适应多方面的。
看我。我差不多和棒球一样快。我比篮球稍微轻和小点儿。因此，当我必须去做的时候，我跑得飞快。而且，我保护我自己免受伤害，因为我是如此的大。“
“我看不到这个争论的结果。让我们打个赌。”
“好。什么赌？赌谁是最快的怎么样？”“不，那是没有用的。”
“让我们找出人们最喜欢用那个球比赛。”
“听起来不错。人们比赛最多的球将被命名为最好的球”
“有如此多的球。我们将在哪里比赛？”
“我认为我知道去做什么。听我说。”
于是，所有的球听篮球说。
每一个球都赞同篮球。
每四年，人们将在奥运会比赛。人们为他们喜爱的运动欢呼。其他的球也在那里。他们也用排球，网球，还有其他球比赛。他们都想要成为人们喜爱的球。
