从前，有一个贪心的年轻人，他住在一个小村庄里。一天，他路过一座庙宇，看到一只大铜铃。那只铜铃特别漂亮，闪闪发光，风一吹就发出清脆悦耳的声音，他很想要它。
Once upon a time, there was a greedy young man who lived in a small village. One day, he walked past a temple and saw a large bronze bell. The bell was especially beautiful, glistening in the sunlight, and produced a crisp, melodious sound when the wind blew. He really wanted it.
年轻人想：“我得偷走这只铃铛！”可是，那只铃铛轻轻一碰就会发出声响，如果他把铃铛取下来，所有人都会听到。他怕被人发现，所以他得想个办法。
The young man thought, "I must steal this bell!" But the bell would make a sound with just a gentle touch, and if he removed the bell, everyone would hear it. He was afraid of being discovered, so he had to think of a plan.
年轻人想啊想，最后想到一个主意。他把自己的耳朵用棉花塞紧，这样他就听不到铃铛的声音了。他以为如果他听不到声音，其他人也听不到。
The young man thought and thought, and finally came up with an idea. He stuffed his ears with cotton, so he wouldn't be able to hear the bell's sound. He thought that if he couldn't hear it, neither could anyone else.
于是，年轻人走进庙里，用锤子狠狠地敲了一下铃铛。铃铛发出了巨大的声音，但年轻人却听不到。他开心地笑着，认为没有人听到。
So, the young man walked into the temple and hit the bell hard with a hammer. The bell produced a huge sound, but the young man couldn't hear it. He smiled happily, thinking that nobody heard it.
但是，村里的其他人都听到了那巨大的声音。他们赶紧跑来，看到了年轻人正在偷铃铛。他们抓住了年轻人，把他送去了官府。
However, everyone in the village heard the loud sound. They quickly ran over and saw the young man trying to steal the bell. They caught the young man and took him to the authorities.
