一天，当我在等爸爸的时候，我看见一个大约两岁的小男孩在草地上自由地奔跑，他妈妈就在不远处看着。

One day, while I was waiting for my father, I saw a little boy, around two years old, running freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance.

He was a hobo by choice: As a little boy, he'd seen a hobo come up to ask his mother for a piece of pie and she had given it to him and when the hobo went off down the road the little boy had said, "Ma, what was that fellow?" "Why, that's a hobo."

他是自愿成为流浪汉的：,当他还是个小男孩的时候，他见过一个流浪汉向他妈妈,要一块派，他妈妈给他了,于是当流浪汉离开的时候小男孩就问，“妈妈，那个家伙是谁“，“是个流浪汉“
