从前有一匹马,只要对它说“我的妈呀!”,它会以一秒千里的速度飞奔,但只要你对它说一声“我的天呀!”它会骤然停下。一个商人看上了这匹马,便买了下来。
  他说了一句“我的妈呀!”,那匹马飞一般跑了起来,果然飞奔如野。没多久,他们便驶入了距城中心30多公里的丛山中。商人忽见前方有一悬崖绝壁,立想停住这千里马,但忘记了使马停住的口令,“我的地呀!”
  “我的祖宗呀!”,就是忘了“我的天呀!”。
  在千钧一发之际,他终于说出了“我的天呀!”马在离掉落只剩几厘米处停下了。商人叹了口气,感慨地说了声“我的妈呀!”……

As a hint, I think “我的妈呀!” is like saying "mamma mia".

****Spoiler********露馅**** ****Spoiler********露馅**** ****Spoiler********露馅**** There once was a horse, that as long as you said to it "Mamma mia!", it would run up to 1000 miles a second, but you had to say to it "My heavens!" in order to halt it. A businessman came to look at this horse, then bought it. He said the sentence "Mamma mia!", the horse began to run at a normal pace, then sure enough sped up. Shortly after, they were amongst the hills, 30 kilometres from the city centre. The businessman suddening saw ahead the edge of a cliff and wanted the horse to stop, but he'd forgotten the command, "My earth!" "My ancestors!", but had forgotten it was "My heavens!". After a while he finally said "My heavens!" and the horse stopped a few centimetres from the edge of the drop. The businessman let out a sigh and regrettably said "Mamma mia!"......
