The Thirsty Pigeon口渴的鸽子
A PIGEON, oppressed by excessive thirst,
saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard.
Not supposing it to be only a picture, she
flew towards it with a loud whir and
unwittingly dashed against the signboard,
jarring herself terribly. Having broken her
wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and
was caught by one of the bystanders.
Zeal should not outrun discretion.
有只鸽子口渴得很难受,看见画板上画着一个水瓶,以为是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飞过
去,
不料一头碰撞在画板上,折断了翅膀,摔在地上,被人轻易地捉住了。
这是说,有些人想急于得到所需的东西,一时冲动,草率从事,就会身遭不幸。
风和太阳(The Wind And The Sun)
One day the
wind said to the sun, “Look at that man walking
along the road. I can get
his cloak off more
quickly than you can.”
“We will see about
that,” said the sun. “I will let you try first.”
So the wind tried to make the man take off his
cloak. He blew and blew, but the man
only
pulled his cloak more closely around himself.
“I give up,” said the wind at last. “I
cannot get his cloak off.” Then the sun tried. He
shone as hard as he could. The man soon became
hot and took off his cloak.
(有一天风跟太阳说:
“看看那个沿着路上走的人.我可以比你快让他把披风脱下来.)
(“我们等着看吧,”太阳说,
“我让你先试.)
(因此风尝试让那个人把披风脱下来.他用力地吹,可是那个人把披风拉得更紧.)
(“我放弃了,”风最后说, “我无法让他把披风脱下来.”然后由太阳试试看.他尽可能地晒他.不
久,
那个人很热就把披风脱下来了.)
