The Building of the Babel

Workmen of many nations started to build a very high tower.At first all went well.At that time,everyone spoke the same language,and although the workmen came from many regions ,some very far away,they understood each other without difficulty.The building was so huge that it seemed that it would soon reach the sky and challenge the power of God himself!And God saw this too,and was angry.He punished the arrogance of pride of mankind.Without warning,the workmen from different places found one day they simply could no longer understand each other,so they could no long work together.Nobody could unerstand instructions,or make plans,or heed warnings from anyone else unless that person happened to come from the same region.The great building was abandoned unfinished,to crumble away.Ever since then the world has been troubled by many language,and only years of study had made one man able to understand his neighbor.An when we head a confused noise that we cannot understand at, we call it in English a baber of noise,after the unfinished tower.

各个国家的工人们开始建造一座高塔,一开始一切都很顺利。每个人都说着同一种语言,虽然工人们来自不同的地区,有些非常遥远,但是他们可以毫无困难的相互理解。这项工程如此浩大,似乎马上就会到达天际而撼动上帝的权威。上帝也看到了,并且很愤怒。他惩罚了傲慢的人类。毫无预兆地,来自不同地方的人有一天发现他们不再能够轻易的听懂对方的话,因此他们也不再能够一起工作。没有人能够听懂别人的指示,做出的计划或是发出的注意事项,除非他们来自同一个地方。伟大的建筑半途而废了,倒塌成废墟。直到现在,世界仍然被各种语言困扰着,一个人要理解别国的话,需要付出几年的学习时间。在英语中,当我们听到一段让人困惑的话而不能理解是,我们就叫它“a baber of noise“
