森林里鸟语花香、生机勃勃,里面住着孔雀、大象和长颈鹿这三个最要好的朋友,他们一起吃饭,一起玩耍,一起睡觉,整天形影不离。可是最近它们因为一件事闹翻了,长颈鹿和孔雀非常骄傲,一直在说自己怎样好,只有大象在一旁默不作声。
事情是这样的:有一天,它们还和往常一样在一起玩耍,到了快要吃午饭时,孔雀突然发现没有柴了,就对长颈鹿说:“你看家里没有柴了,而我又太高贵,去山上砍柴太不适合,所以还是你去吧,别忘了回来还要做饭呀。”长颈鹿听了又气又愤,说:“你只有那一身羽毛好显摆,是的,我承认你的羽毛非常漂亮,但你的羽毛有用处吗?我的脖子又粗又长,既可以看见四面八方,又可以吃到树上新鲜的果子,你能吗?”说完这些,长颈鹿十分解气,可孔雀真的被长颈鹿这番话给惹恼了,大声地对长颈鹿说:“你的脖子很有用处,你也很强壮,那好,既然你那么刚健有力,为什么不去砍柴呢,我看你分明是不想砍柴。”长颈鹿又辩护说:“你让我去砍柴,如果我去了,那你不是在家自在了?”孔雀听了,结结巴巴的说“我、我力气太小,砍不动柴。”长颈鹿听了,生气到了极点,对孔雀吼道:“好了,你别再狡辩了,如果你不去,我也不去。”它们俩就这么僵持着,大象看见了,非常伤心,因为它不想看到往日的好友吵架,它趁孔雀和长颈鹿不注意时,偷偷地跑到山上,拿起斧头开始砍柴,烈日晒得它大汗淋漓,可它全然不顾,只想着砍完柴它的好朋友就能和好,想到这个,它更加卖力。
孔雀和长颈鹿吵了很久,一直吵得精疲力尽,肚子咕噜咕噜叫为止,要不然还不知道它们要吵到什么时候呢。等到吵累了,它们才发现大象不见了,于是便开始找起大象来,突然,它们看见一个满身是泥,浑身是汗的身影。“是大象!”长颈鹿一眼就认出了大象。它们连忙把大象扶进屋里,给它洗了个热水澡,还给它喝了清凉的果汁。大象歇了一会儿,孔雀和长颈鹿争着问大象怎么了。大象说:“今天上午我看见你们两人因为砍柴的事而吵来吵去,我于心不忍,不想让昔日的好友因为一件事而闹翻了,于是我就偷偷背着你们去山上砍柴,等我砍柴回来,你们有了柴,就还会像以前一样在一起玩耍了,再也不用为砍柴而烦恼了。”孔雀听了之后,用关心的语气说:“如果你上山砍柴叫上我的话,我一定会跟你去的。”这时长颈鹿插嘴说:“你刚刚不是还说你太弱小,不能砍柴的吗!”孔雀惭愧的低下了头。长颈鹿又对大象说:“你一个人砍这么多柴,能承受得了吗?”大象谦虚地说:“我皮糙肉厚,吃点苦,这点小活不算什么。”长颈鹿和孔雀听了这话,都在心里暗暗佩服大象。
自从大象上山砍柴这件事过后,孔雀和长颈鹿都变得非常谦虚,它们有什么活都争着做,不会像以前那样到处找借口了。大象还组织孔雀和长颈鹿上山种树,它语重心长地说:“如果我们光砍柴不种树的话,山上很快就没有柴可以砍了,所以我们不仅要砍柴,还要种树种花,让树木花草绿化我们的家园,绿化我们的祖国。”
孔雀和长颈鹿听了大象的教诲以后,每天都上山植树,而大象则自告奋勇的帮它们提水浇树,每种好一棵树,它们就围着小树苗转,并且还对着小树苗异口同声地说它们以后要互相谦虚学习,不会再骄傲自大。
Elephant is the largest animal on land today. It weights some ninety kilograms and is about one metre high when born. When it is 12 years old, it studs over three meters and does not grow any more. Elephant is usually grey in color, having a long trunk with large ivory tusks protruding from each side of its mouth.

Elephant is and will continue to be one of the greatest creatures man has ever come into contact with. Its size. beauty, and power willforever be useful to man.
