They lived a square field. There was a fence (篱笆) in the middle of the field. On one side lived Bill and on the other, lived Ben. Every morning the farmer fed Bill in one corner and then fed Ben in another corner. This went on for many years. One day the farmer decided to do a little test. When the two donkeys were asleep, the farmer tied a rope around Bills neck. Then he tied the other end of the rope around Bens neck. He then put some oats (donkeys favorite food) in Bills corner and in Bens corner.When the two donkeys woke up, they were quite surprised to find a rope around their necks. Then, feeling hungry, the two donkeys saw the oats in their own corners. “Mmm, oats!” said Bill. “I love oats!” and he walked off towards his corner.“I love oats, too” Ben walked off towards his corner. Well, after 10 meters, both donkeys stopped. The rope was too short. First Bill pulled hard and Ben slid (滑) away from his food. But then Ben pulled and Bill slid away from his food. This went on for hours. The donkeys were getting weaker and weaker, but still they pulled and pulled. Then Bill had an idea. “Hey, Ben!” he shouted. “Why not come over to my corner and we can eat my oats together? Then we go to your corner and eat your oats together.”“Good idea, Bill,”said Ben.

While the conversation is going on, the wife and the children, especially girls, are preparing food for the visitor. The visitor can choose his favorite food. After the visitor finishes eating, the host and the visitor go on with their conversation. Usually this is a short one because the visitor is getting ready to say goodbye.When the visitor is leaving, he is often given some food. He is also accompanied (陪伴) by one of the children to the nearest station. The child who accompanies the visitor will not come back home until the visitor leaves safely.Whether he is a close friend or just a stranger, this is always how friendly Akuapem people receive a visitor.( )84.
