A mother camel is walking with her son through the desert(沙漠).They are looking for water and grass. The son asks his mother what water and grass look like. The mother answers that water is blue and looks like the sky, while grass is green and nice.
They walk a day and a night. The son suddenly cries.“Look, mother, there’s water and grass over there.”
"What a foolish(傻)talk, child!"
The water and grass are on the left, while the desert is on the right. Because the mother camel is blind in her left eye, she can see nothing with her left eye.
