A professor( 教授) from New York University once
went a remote area to do some science research(研究). One
day, he ate something wrong and became sick, but it was too far to go to the
city. "I have to see a doctor," he said to a local(当地人). "How can I be sure of getting a good one?"
"It's easy," was the reply.
"Every time a doctor loses a patient(病人), it's our law that he must fly a balloon
above his office."
So he began his search. One doctor flew 20
balloons, another 30. Then the professor found an office that was flying only
five and went in.
"You'll have to wait. I've been very
busy," the young doctor told him. "I started my business only
yesterday."
