碧绿的青草长满了池岸,池塘池水高涨,有几对鸳鸯在水中游戏。远方的两座山峦上方有一轮红日刚好落在山顶,而池塘泛起的一丝波纹像一面镜子倒映它们的倒影,几只归巢的鸟儿也倒映在了镜子上,路边有几棵垂柳,微风拂过好似在帮它梳辫子。
“嘟嘟、嘟嘟‘嘟……”远方传来了阵阵笛声,原来是放牛归来的牧童,只见他横跨在牛背上,手中拿着鞭子和短笛,见到这幅画都陶醉了。他继续吹奏着自己随口而没有曲调的曲子,牛好似也陶醉的听着自己小主人独创的曲子,摇摇脑袋,甩甩尾巴,助兴地叫了两声:“哞·哞·哞。”放慢步子。慢悠悠的回到家中。
Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city."
The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, " Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.
After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid."
从前,有两只老鼠,它们是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在乡村,另一只住在城里。很多年以后,乡下老鼠碰到城里老鼠,它说:“你一定要来我乡下的家看看。”于是,城里老鼠就去了。乡下老鼠领着它到了一块田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出来给城里老鼠。城里老鼠说:“这东西不好吃,你的.家也不好,你为什么住在田野的地洞里呢?你应该搬到城里去住,你能住上用石头造的漂亮房子,还会吃上美味佳肴,你应该到我城里的家看看。”
乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮,好吃的东西也为他们摆好了。可是正当他们要开始吃的时候,听见很大的一阵响声,城里的老鼠叫喊起来:“快跑!快跑!猫来了!”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。
过了一会儿,他们出来了。当他们出来时,乡下老鼠说:“我不喜欢住在城里,我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。因为这样虽然贫穷但是快乐自在,比起虽然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说,要好些。”
A WOLF who had a bone stuck in his throat hired a Crane, for a large sum, to put her head into his mouth and draw out the bone. When the Crane had extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the Wolf, grinning and grinding his teeth, exclaimed: "Why, you have surely already had a sufficient recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your head in safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf."
In serving the wicked, expect no reward, and be thankful if you escape injury for your pains.
狼误吞下了一块骨头,十分难受,四处奔走,寻访医生。他遇见了鹭鸶,谈定酬金请他 取出骨头,鹭鸶把自己的头伸进狼的喉咙里,叼出了骨头,便向狼要定好的酬金。狼回答 说:“喂,朋友,你能从狼嘴里平安无事地收回头来,难道还不满足,怎么还要讲报酬?”
这故事说明,对坏人行善的报酬,就是认识坏人不讲信用的本质。
傍晚时分,夕阳斜照,大地被映得通红的。刚经过疾风骤雨,池塘里的水满得快要溢出来了。池塘边长满了青草,郁郁葱葱,一眼望去,绿油油的一片。雨水褪去,叶子上洒满了水,“水宝宝”晶莹剔透,在阳光的照射下,白里透红,犹如颗颗闪耀的红宝石,光彩夺目。
远处青山,衔起红彤彤的落日,一起投入湖泊的怀抱中。水面的荷叶又大又圆,青蛙在荷叶上“呱呱”叫着,犹如一个个技艺高超的歌唱家。鱼儿听到了优美的乐曲,情不自禁地露出了水面,欢快地吐起泡泡。虾儿也纷纷爬上了芦苇,享受着大自然独有的乐声。
远处,一头老黄牛缓缓走来,仔细一看牛背上还横坐着一个牧童。他头戴草帽,身上穿着一件简单的`布衣,脚上蹬着草鞋,那天真可爱、自由自在的样子,真令人向往!老牛的尾巴左右摇摆,驱赶着那令人厌烦的蚊虫。牧童悠闲的坐在牛背上,听着池塘边传来蛙鸣,突然间来了兴致。只见他信手从腰间掏出随身携带的短笛,伴着水声、蛙鸣,即兴吹奏不成调的曲子。风中,悠扬的笛声越飘越远……
