句子使用情态动词和形容词强调解决问题的可能性和方法。
Once, people from a small country came to China and presented three identical golden statues, dazzling and splendid, which delighted the emperor. However, the small country’s envoy also posed a challenge: which of the three golden statues was the most valuable? The emperor tried various methods, inviting jewelers to inspect, weighing and examining the craftsmanship, but all three appeared exactly the same.
What could be done? The envoy was still waiting to report back. Surely a great empire would not fail at such a small task. Finally, a retired senior minister claimed he had a solution. The emperor invited the envoy to the hall. The minister confidently took three straws and inserted one into the first statue’s ear; it came out the other ear. The straw for the second statue fell straight out of its mouth. For the third statue, the straw went in and dropped into its belly without any sound. The minister declared: the third golden statue is the most valuable! The envoy was silent, acknowledging the answer was correct.
曾经有个小国的人来到中国，进贡了三个一模一样的金人，金光闪耀，使皇帝非常高兴。然而，这小国的人不太老实，同时出了一个难题：这三个金人哪个最有价值？皇帝尝试了多种方法，请来珠宝匠检查，称重量，看做工，结果都是一模一样。
怎么办呢？使者还在等着回去汇报。泱泱大国，连这个小事都不会处理吗？最后，一位退位的老大臣说他有办法。皇帝将使者请到大殿，老臣胸有成竹地拿着三根稻草，插入第一个金人的耳朵，稻草从另一边耳朵出来。第二个金人的稻草从嘴巴直接掉出来，而第三个金人，稻草进去后掉进肚子，什么响动也没有。老臣说：第三个金人最有价值！使者默默无语，答案正确。
