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:
