There was once many sheiks(阿拉伯的酋长）who wanted to marryQueen Maura,for she was one of the most beautiful queens of Arabia.
However,she did not like most of the sheiks,and soon there were only three lefton her list of possible husbands.
These three sheiks were all equally young and handsome,rich and strong.
It was very hard for the Queen to choose the best one.
One evening,she disguised herself and went to where the three sheiks werehaving there evening meal.
She asked them to give her something to eat.
The first sheik gave her some stale（不新鲜的）food left overfrom the day before.
The second sheik gave her a tough piece of old camel’s tail.
The third sheik,whose name was Hakim,gave her some of the most tender(嫩的）and tasty meat.
After the mean,Queen Maura left the sheik’s camp.
The next day,she invited the three sheiks to dinner at her palace.
She told her servants to give each sheik what he had given her the eveningbefore.
Hakim,who received a plate of tender and tasty mean,would not eat in unless theother two sheiks could share it with him.
Queen Maura was now certain which of the sheiks she wanted to marry.
“Hakim is the most generous of you,”she told them,“so iwant to marry him ans he will become king.”
曾经有很多酋长都想去皇后毛拉，因为她是一个美丽和强大的阿拉伯皇后。
然而，大多数酋长她都不喜欢，最后选择下来，只有三位酋长肯能会成为她的丈夫。
这三位酋长都同样年轻英俊，富有和强大的，所以，这是个很艰难的选择。
一天晚上，她把自己伪装起来，在吃饭的时候，到三个部落去找这三个酋长。
她要求他们给她一些东西吃。
第一个酋长给了她一些不新鲜的，前一天吃剩下的食物。
第二位酋长给了她很难吃的，像给动物吃的食物。
第三位酋长，他的名字叫Hakim,给了她一些新鲜的，很好吃的肉。
餐后，毛拉离开酋长们的营地。
第二天，她邀请了三位酋长去她的宫殿吃晚饭。
她告诉她的仆人，把昨天三个酋长给她的食物分别给三个酋长。
Hakim,收到一盘新鲜，很好吃的肉。同时，其它两位酋长不能和她分享。
女王毛拉现在知道了她想结婚的对象就是Hakim.
“他是最慷慨的人，”她说，“所以我想嫁给他，他将成为国王。”
