Translation 英译汉

Once upon a time, a cook named Ding was asked to butcher a cow for King Hui. As he worked, his movements were graceful, like dancing to music. The sound of the knife between the bones was like a whisper in the night. When the butcher finished, the king said: “Wow, your skill is amazing!”

从前，一位名叫丁的厨师被要求为惠王宰杀一头牛。当他工作时，他的动作很优美，就像随着音乐跳舞一样。骨头之间的刀声就像夜晚的低语。宰杀完牛，惠王说：“哇，你的技术太高超了！”

The butcher replied: “It was nothing really. When I first took up the job, what I saw was the whole cow. But after I had been at it for a few years and butchered a good number of cows, what I saw was no longer the whole cow, but just its structure. Ever since then, I stopped using my eyes and used my mind instead, knowing where every bone and joint is and where to cut exactly.”

屠夫回答说：“这真的没什么。当我第一次从事这项工作时，我看到的是整头牛。但在我从事这项工作几年并宰杀了很多牛之后，我看到了的不再是整头牛，而是它的结构。从那以后，我不再用眼睛，而是用心志宰牛，我知道每一块骨头和关节的位置，知道怎样切得准确。”

By years of practice, the cook finally achieved excellence in butchering. Even today, his story is still told to show that a good craftsman comes from continued practice.

经过多年的实践，这位厨师终于在屠宰方面取得了卓越的成就。即使在今天，他的故事仍然被传颂，意在说明伟大的工匠源自不懈的实践。
