从前,吴国孙权送给曹操一只大象,曹操十分高兴.曹操对大家说：“这只大象真是大,可是到底有多重呢?你们哪个有办法称它一称?”曹冲叫人把象牵到船上,等船身稳定了,在船舷上齐水面的地方,刻了一条道道.再叫人把象牵到岸上来,把大大小小的石头,一块一块地往船上装,船身就一点儿一点儿往下沉.等船身沉到刚才刻的那条道道和水面一样齐了,曹冲就叫人停止装石头.翻译成英语

Answer 1

One day somebody sent Cao Cao an elephant．Cao Cao wanted to know its weight,but there was nothing big enough to weigh it on．Cao Chong told his father he could weigh the elephant if he had a big boat and a lot of heavy stones．Cao Cao and some other people were very surprised,but still he ordered his men to get everything ready．When they led the elephant down into the boat,the water came up,then Cao Chong marked the water line．Then they drove the elephant onto the bank and put the heavy stones in the boat until the water came up to the same line．At last,Cao Chong told the men to weigh each of the stones．In this way,he weighed the elephant．
