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 piteouslyentreated, 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."
Little friends may prove great friends.
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,释放了牠,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。”
强者不会永远是强者,强者也会有需要弱者帮助的时候。
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。”
小时候,爷爷奶奶经常去田里插秧,很晚才回来,俺经常带一帮伙伴来俺家玩过家家。因为怕把家里弄脏,被奶奶骂,于是俺拿了几个几个碟子和几个碗还有盐、味精、筷子来到屋后的小河边去玩办家家。器具是有了,但是没食物啊,每个人家里都穷的响叮当,翻来翻去找不到吃的。
于是,俺和“机灵鬼”小明商量去隔壁王二奶家的田里偷些东西。说干就干,俺们乘王二奶睡午觉的空子,蹑手蹑脚的速度恐怕连蜗牛都追不上,生怕惊醒王二奶。俺们偷了几个地瓜和玉米棒子。得手后,我们比兔子还跑得快。那心里既有点忐忒不安,又有点得意。
“水老鼠”小泉会游泳,让他去抓了两条小鲤鱼。俺和“机灵鬼”大一些,便做了娘和爹。水老鼠和二琪丫做了儿女。俺用芦苇席草草地编了个席子,机灵鬼去找了一些干草来烧饭。水老鼠和二琪丫去采花。
俺用砖头搭成四方,里面放了一些干草,上面架着个大汤碗做锅,在里面放了些水和玉米棒子俺在地下挖个洞,里面点上火,放了几个地瓜,就搞得妥妥当当了。剩下的`就让机灵鬼在那看着。俺累得坐在席子上直喘气,两个小家伙采了一些野菊花就回来了,却不料他们一回来就做我左腿上,一个坐在我右腿上,缠着俺给他们讲故事,最糟糕的还不止这些呢,他们两个似乎商量好整俺的,水老鼠要听迪迦奥特曼,二琪丫要听白雪公主,唉!谁让俺倒霉呢,谁让俺既是他们的姐姐,又是他们的“妈妈”呢。虽然他们不重,可做在俺腿上,俺觉得像两只小猪一样重。
突然,机灵鬼喊道:“玉米棒子好了,好了,快来吃啊。”俩小鬼一百米冲刺的速度的跑到锅边,也不管烫不烫了,吃了再说,完全顾不到俺在旁边已经口水直流三千尺了。
不过还好,还有鲫鱼可吃了,俺和二琪丫一起用筷子插进鱼嘴里,放在火上烤,俺们几个看着鱼都咽了咽口水,鱼快好了,我撒了点盐和味精,不一会儿,鱼便好了,俺们三个坐在席子上,一边喝着野菊花泡的茶,一边你一口我一口地吃着香喷喷的烤鱼(虽然味道不咋样,但是有我们的劳动结晶嘛,就像在吃鲍鱼一样。
还没吃完,王二奶囔着跑过来:“小泥鳅丫头,你又偷俺家的玉米棒子,俺非告诉你奶奶不可。”俺们几个向她吐了吐舌头,就灰溜溜的跑个没影了,连碗都来不及拿。
难忘当年办家家,它给我留下了美好的回忆,也留下了与小伙伴童年时的一段纯真的友谊!

秋姑娘一边走一边哼着小曲,当看到小孩子在踢毽子,她那小孩子脾气又上来了,想来一个恶作剧,当孩子们越踢越紧张时,她不慌不忙地吹了一股清凉的.秋风,毽子飞了个“十万八千里”落在了草地上。孩子的热劲一点也没了,被她的秋风吹得四散,秋姑娘意识到自己闯了祸,就逃走了。
他来到了麦田,看见麦子还是绿油油的,心想:这个讨厌的春姑姑,走了就走了,还留下了纪念。秋姑娘越想越可气,她决定来个“大变麦子”,她拿来洒水壶,把雨滴和黄色的颜料搅混了,就洒了出去(就是下雨了)一束束麦子变黄了,可是,旁边的叶子也被他变黄了。农民们一个接着一个来抢收麦子。秋姑娘不知自己做错了什么,以为别人来找她算账了,立刻不见了踪影。
你找去,原来秋姑娘来到了果园,你瞧,她在一棵苹果树下乘凉,乘凉乘够了。她就给苹果讲笑话,你看,她把一个个苹果给逗笑了,苹果们捧腹大笑,笑红了脸,一个个变红了;此时,她想到了自己带了水彩笔,马上拿出紫色,给葡萄谈装浓抹,葡萄们一个个变成了紫色;她又拿出橘色,立刻给橘子染成了橘色……
直到夕阳西下,他想在群片群片的火烧云里,做起了甜美的梦。
那天晚上,我和周佶、刘丝微在我家闲得没事干。突然!我灵机一动,对他们说:“我们来办一个晚会怎么样?”周佶听了奇怪得问:“怎么办晚会呢?”我叫他们凑到我这边来跟他们叽里咕噜地说了几句,她们一致赞成,于是我们便忙开了……
一切准备就绪后,一到晚上,我们便把大人们叫来让他们看我们表演。首先由我这个‘小主持人’来报幕。我手里拿着一个‘话筒’(其实是梳子说:“女士们,先生们!大家晚上好。小孩晚会现在开始!首先我们有请刘丝微、周佶小朋友为大家表演《时装表演》,大家掌声欢迎!”我刚说完刘丝微早就迫不急待得上了“舞台”只见她穿着一件报纸做的衣服,上面贴了一些挂历纸做的一些花,可见她有一种环保精神。接下来是周佶的了,只见她穿了一件牛仔裙。带了一个牛仔帽,她穿起来可漂亮了!看来周佶很会挑选衣服。节目刚完,掌声就开始了。第二个节目是我弹电子琴《加沃特舞曲》,悠扬的琴声传得很远很远。我刚刚弹完,雷鸣般的掌声就响起来了。第三个节目是我和刘丝微表演的`相声《我的妈妈》,那幽默风趣的语言,逗得那些大人哈哈大笑,眼泪都流出来了。第三个节目是周佶表演的画画,名叫《花江水月》,在那宛转的彩笔下,描绘出这样的美景:月光下,许多的花儿在小河边盛开着。还有我的诗朗诵,周佶的讲故事……
晚会在愉快的气氛中结束了。那天我玩得真高兴。
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。
