Lion was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up in anger, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously entreated, saying: "If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness." The Lion laughed and let him go.
It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came up, and gnawed the rope with his teeth, and setting him free, exclaimed: "You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, not expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favour; but now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a Lion."
一只老鼠从一只狮子面前跑过去,将它从梦中吵醒。狮子生气地跳起来,捉住老鼠,要弄死它。老鼠哀求说:「只要你肯饶恕我这条小生命,我将来一定会报答你的大恩。」狮子便笑着放了它。
后来狮子被几个猎人捉住,用粗绳捆绑倒在地上。老鼠听出是狮子的`吼声,走来用牙齿咬断绳索,释放了它,并大声说:「你当时嘲笑我想帮你的忙,而且也不指望我有什么机会报答。但是你现在知道了,就算是小老鼠,也能向狮子效劳的。」
南瓜园的初秋,跑进了七只野老鼠,他们正在逃避一只可怕的大猫。他们冲进了层层叠叠的绿色南瓜藤和南瓜叶,上面正结满了又大又圆的南瓜。
Early autumn in the pumpkin garden, there came seven wide mice escaping from a big and terrifying cat. They rushed into green vines and leaves aplenty with big and round pumpkins.
高傲的猫就像无头苍蝇一样四处寻找但一无所获,最后只好灰溜溜地走了。
The prideful cat hunted around like a chicken with its head cut off in vain and finally left in dismay.
“万岁,我们现在安全了!”
“Hooray, we are safe now!”
当他们出来时,被眼前的情景给深深地吸引了。大南瓜叶像荷叶一般大,而南瓜经过一个夏天的日照已呈金黄色。
When they came out, they were deeply attracted. The giant pumpkin leaves were as huge as the lotus leaves while the pumpkins were orange through a summer’s sunlight.
最小的一只老鼠伸出了鼻子,非常近地靠近一只南瓜,他闻了一下便笑了:
The smallest mouse’s nose jutted out and got very close to a pumpkin. He smelled with a smile:
“太棒了,好甜呀!这肯定是我见过的最大的南瓜了!我饿了,我猜它呆在我肚子里会比较好!”
“Great, it’s sweat! It must be the biggest pumpkin I’ve ever seen. I am hungry now. I guess it must be better in my belly!”
另外六只老鼠也饿了:
“逃跑消耗能量!”
Other six mice were hungry to
“Running costs energy!”
他们冲到那只南瓜前,用锋利的'牙齿咬开洞洞。他们吃啊,吃啊,吃啊,不仅品尝了美味的南瓜肉还有可口的南瓜籽。最后,他们的肚子变得滚圆滚圆才心满意足地作罢!
They rushed to the pumpkin and bit holes with their shape teeth. They ate, ate and ate not only the delicious meat but also the seed. Finally they stopped eating and felt good for their full and round bellies.
他们打着饱嗝从南瓜里爬出来,当看见自己伟大的作品时全都笑了:
Then they burped and climbed out of the pumpkin. When they saw their great work,
老鼠们看着屏幕上两个大大的字——剧终,它们失望极了,它们沉默了几秒,它们互相指责。礼仪大臣说:“都怪国防大臣,要不是你,我们早就看完了。”国防大臣拿出枪向天花板射了一枪,大家就安静了下来。
它们回到了家才看见啤酒瓶底儿被一大群猫给包围了,于是老鼠们就去救它。结果老鼠国王被抓了,老鼠们去找猫国王,猫国王正要把老鼠国王吃了,幸好老鼠们及时赶到,经过浴血奋战,老鼠们把国王救了出来。
老鼠们又发现它们的城堡也被毁了。于是它们又盖了一个新家,里面非常漂亮。老鼠国王经过这次的事件,总结了经验教训,不能过分虚荣讲排场,要团结一致才能抵御外敌。于是,国王重新颁布了九十九条法律,进行了一系列改革,国家越来越强大了,从此它们过上了幸福的生活。
国王说:“好了,好了,大家都不要争论了,就算争到天黑,电影又不会重新放,我们还是回去吧。”大家一回去发现啤酒瓶底儿在城堡边哭,国王问啤酒瓶底儿,你为什么哭,啤酒瓶底儿连忙说:“大王,刚刚来了一只又肥又胖的猫把我们的食物全拿走了,还把我们的城堡糟蹋了。”国王说:“什么!那只猫把我们辛辛苦苦搭的城堡糟蹋了,我要去报仇。”结果,国王一去就被猫抓了,猫给老鼠们还写了一封信,信上说:“如果你们三分钟后不要救你们的国王,它就会被我吃了!”老鼠们看完以后,就马上行动,但到了门口,有一只老鼠说:“既然要去救国王就应该穿的.漂亮一点。”等它们换完服装以后,有一只老鼠说:“既然要去救国王就应该有音乐。”老鼠们请来了乐队奏乐,可这时又一只老鼠说:“国王说过我们要守纪律。”但老鼠忘了时间,一到那儿国王就被猫吃了。大家又开始互相指责起来说:“都怪你们几个非要换什么衣服。”“都怪你们几个,非要请乐队。”“都怪你们几个非要守什么纪律。”说着说着冒出一只老鼠说:“大家之前看电影的时候就是因为我们一直在说,才没有看到电影的,这次也是因为我们一直在说,我们的国王才被吃掉的。”听了这只老鼠的话,大家都惭愧的低下了头。
读了文章我知道了,不能做说话的巨人,行动的矮子。
