The fox, filled with arrogance, examined the cat from head to feet, and for a long time did not know whether he should give an answer. At last he said, "Oh, you poor beard-licker, you speckled fool, you hungry mouse hunter, what are you thinking? Have you the nerve to ask how I am doing? What do you know? How many tricks do you understand?"
"I understand but one," answered the cat, modestly.
"What kind of a trick is it?" asked the fox.
"When the dogs are chasing me, I can jump into a tree and save myself."
"Is that all?" said the fox. "I am master of a hundred tricks, and in addition to that I have a sackful of cunning. I feel sorry for you. Come with me, and I will teach you how one escapes from the dogs."
Just then a hunter came by with four dogs. The cat jumped nimbly up a tree, and sat down at its top, where the branches and foliage completely hid her.
"Untie your sack, Mr. Fox, untie your sack," the cat shouted to him, but the dogs had already seized him, and were holding him fast.
"Oh, Mr. Fox," shouted the cat. "You and your hundred tricks are left in the lurch. If you been able to climb like I can, you would not have lost your life."
一只猫在森林里遇到一只狐狸,心想:“他又聪明,又丰富,挺受人尊重的。”於是它很友好地和狐狸打招呼:“日安,尊敬的狐狸先生,您好吗?这些日子挺艰难的,您过得怎么样?”
狐狸傲慢地将猫从头到脚地打量了一番,半天拿不定主意是不是该和它说话。最后它说:“哦,你这个倒霉的长着鬍子、满身花纹的傻瓜、饥肠辘辘地追赶老鼠的.傢伙,你会啥?有甚么资格问我过得怎么样?你都学了点甚么本事?”
“我只有一种本领。”猫谦虚地说。
“甚么本领?”狐狸问。
“有人追我的时候,我会爬到树上去藏起来保护自己。”
“就这本事?”狐狸不屑地说,“我掌握了上百种本领,而且还有满口袋计谋。我真觉得你可怜,跟着我吧,我教你怎么从追捕中逃生。”
就在这时,猎人带着四条狗走近了。猫敏捷地窜到一棵树上,在树顶上蹲伏下来,茂密的树叶把它遮挡得严严实实。
“快打开你的计谋口袋,狐狸先生,快打开呀!”猫冲着狐狸喊道。可是猎狗已经将狐狸扑倒咬住了。“哎呀,狐狸先生,”猫喊道,“你的千百种本领就这么给扔掉了!假如你能像我一样爬树就不至於丢了性命了!”
一、主要内容:
狐狸在山脚下看见了一大片高高的葡萄架上结满了一串串绿绿的葡萄,它口水都流出来了,就决定摘几串尝尝。狐狸使劲伸长前臂跳着去摘,可是怎么也摘不到,急得抓耳挠腮。狐狸是很聪明的,它坐下来仔细的动着脑筋:我应该找到一个架子低的地方,那样准能摘到葡萄。它绕着葡萄架终于寻找到了一个较低的地方。于是狐狸摆好架势,猛的一蹦,没摘到,再蹦,还是没摘到,还差点闪了腰。狐狸气坏了,喃喃自语地说:“葡萄青青的,肯定没长熟,说不定又酸又涩,即使摘到了,吃进嘴里,酸掉了牙,还得吐出来。”
二、好词佳句:
山脚
抓耳挠腮
喃喃自语
又酸又涩
即使
聪明
寻找
三、:
读了这个故事后我知道了,吃不到葡萄就说葡萄是酸的,这不是一种实事求是的思想。有些人就是这样,得不到的东西,就说东西不好,这不过是一种自我安慰,自欺欺人的可笑心理。我以后一定要做一个实事求是的人。
从前有一个牧民,养了几十只羊,白天放牧,晚上赶进一个用柴草和木桩等物围起来的羊圈内。
一天早晨,这个牧民去放羊,发现羊少了一只。原来羊圈破了个窟窿,夜间有狼从窟窿里钻了进来,把一只羊叼走了。
邻居劝告他说:“赶快把羊圈修一修,堵上那个窟窿吧。”
他说:“羊已经丢了,还去修羊圈干什么呢?”没有接受邻居的好心劝告。
第二天早上,他去放羊,发现又少了一只羊。原来狼又从窟窿里钻进羊圈,又叼走了一只羊。
这位牧民很后悔没有认直接受邻居的劝告,去及时采取补救措施。于是,他赶紧堵上那个窟窿,又从整体进行加固,把羊圈修得牢牢实实的。
从此,这个牧民的.羊就再也没有被野狼叼走过了。
牧民的故事告诉我们:犯了错误,遭到挫折,这是常见的现象。只要能认真吸取教训,及时采取补救措施,就可以避免继续犯错误,遭受更大的损失。
