The Frog in the Shallow Well
Have you not heard of the frog that lived in a shallow well? It said to a turtle that lived in the East Sea, "I am so happy! When I go out, I jump about on the railing beside the mouth of the well. When I come home, I rest in the holes on the broken wall of the well. If I jump into the water, it comes up to my armpits and holds up my cheeks. If I walk in the mud, it covers up my feet. I look around at the wriggly worms, crabs and tadpoles, and none of them can compare with me. Moreover, I am lord of this trough of water and I stand up tall in this shallow well. My happiness is full. My dear sir, why don't you come often and look around my place?"
Before the turtle from the East Sea could get its left foot in the well, its right knee got stuck. It hesitated and retreated. The turtle told the frog about the East Sea.
"Even a distance of a thousand li cannot give you an idea of the sea's width; even a height of a thousand ren cannot give you an idea of its depth. In the time of King Yu of the Xia dynasty, there were floods nine years out of ten, but the waters in the sea did not increase. ln the time of King Tang of the Shang dynasty there were droughts seven years out of eight, but the waters in the sea did not decrease. The sea does not change along with the passage of time and its level does not rise or fall according to the amount of rain that falls. The greatest happiness is to live in the East Sea."
After listening to these words, the frog of the shallow well was shocked into realization of his own insignificance and became very ill at ease.
一口废井里住着一只青蛙。有一天,青蛙在井边碰上了一只从海里来的大龟。 青蛙就对海龟夸口说:“你看,我住在这里多快乐!有时高兴了,就在井栏边跳跃一阵;疲倦了,就回到井里,睡在砖洞边一回。或者只留出头和嘴巴,安安静静地把全身泡在水里:或者在软绵绵的泥浆里散一回步,也很舒适。看看那些虾和蝌虾,谁也此不上我。而且,我是这个井里的主人,在这井里极自由自在,你为什么不常到井里来游赏呢!” 那海龟听了青蛙的话,倒真想进去看看。但它的左脚还没有整个伸进去,右脚就已经绊住了。它连忙后退了两步,把大海的情形告诉青蛙说:“你看过海吗?海的广大,哪止千里;海的深度,哪只千来丈。古时候,十年有九年大水,海里的水,并不涨了多少;后来,八年里有七年大早,海里的水,也不见得浅了多少。可见大海是不受旱涝影响的。住在那样的大海里,才是真的快乐呢!” 井蛙听了海龟的一番话,吃惊地呆在那里,再没有话可说了。
寓意:宇宙无终极,学识无穷尽。这则寓言告诫人们,千万不要因一孔之见,便洋洋自得,不要因一得之功,便沾沾自喜。
我的同学有一张瓜子脸,浓眉大眼,唯一的缺点,就是长得太黑,皮肤黑的就是一位非洲人,简称“盗版非洲人”。这也只是他的外号之一。
说他自恋吧,还真是。有一次上语文课,老师讲着课,不知怎么,讲着讲着,就转移到谁长得最帅,这个话题上。男生们都面红耳赤的低下头。当时,课堂上一片静寂。老师又问了一遍:“只要自己觉得自己长得谁就站起来,不要紧。”接着又是一片静寂,然后我的同学首当其冲的站了起来。我们全班女生都用不服的眼神看着他,但是,他并没有害臊,继续站着。因此,我们全班又送给他了一个外号“自恋狂”。
他跑的也倒是挺快的,他是我们班男生中的第二名。但是奇葩的他又一次奇葩事情上演了,当时应该是接力赛,可恶的“自恋狂”没等跑,就已经吐了。没办法只能让替补上了。虽然我们依然是第一名。但是,我们对他又有了更深刻的印象。并且记住了那次呕吐事件。所以,每一次他跑步时,我们都要对他说你可别再吐了。
这就是我的同学—王旭昊。怎么样?有点可爱,有点自恋,还有点神经病,好玩吧,你喜欢吗?
雨,不停地下着,越下越大┄┄雨水打在窗户上,发出“嘀嗒,嘀嗒”的声响。这天空好似一个大筛子,正永不疲倦地把银币似的雨点洒向大地。远处,被笼罩在雨山之中的大楼,如海市蜃楼般忽隐忽现,让人捉摸不透,还不时亮起一丝红灯,给人片丝暖意。
正当我被这充满诗情画意的场景所陶醉时,突然暴风乍起,打破了原本的寂静。它吹散了浓密的雨雾,摇撼着树丫,在屋顶上掀起了阵阵小规模的“海啸”,使得整个雨世界变得格外壮观起来,把这次“歌舞会”推向高潮,只见,风追赶着雨,雨追赶着风,风和雨又联合起来玩闹着世间万物,它们放肆地用树枝荡秋千,用电线走钢丝,用屋顶弹钢琴,用树叶放风筝┄┄正是“龙卷鱼虾并雨落,人随鸡犬上墙眠”。
渐渐地,风势减弱了,世界又归于平静。放眼望去,大雨仍在下着,狂风却消失得一干二净。雨滴像断了线的珠子连绵不断地从屋檐落下,在地上开起了花。而地上落下的积水又形成一个迷你“洞庭湖”,其中的小土丘就是陆地,碰巧有几片树叶漂过,这就是富有闲情的渔舟┄┄真是太有趣了!
这既壮观又慷慨激昂而又平静似水的雨景真是太迷人了,我爱雨景!
星期天,我们一家人去登黄山。站在山脚下,抬头一望,这刀仞高山险峻陡立,蔚为壮观。有人说,山是一个巨人,屹立在大地之上,深情地俯视着世间万物;有人说,山是一位母亲,敞开广阔的胸怀,供万物生息繁殖;还有人说,山是一个衣橱,春夏秋冬,着装各不相同。而现在,在我面前的,不是威严的巨人,不是慈祥的母亲,也不是一个神秘的衣橱,而是一只凶猛的拦路虎,征服这座山,对我来说,是一个巨大的考验。
我深吸一口气,为自己鼓把劲,一把抓住绳索,踏上崎岖的登山之路。这路,坎坷陡峭又漫长,我一步、两步的向前挪动着。渐渐地,我越来越感到轻松,步伐也越来越轻盈,那是刚毅挺拔的松为我鼓舞,是凉丝丝的风为我加油,是潺潺作响的清泉为我送行。每当我打算停下脚步歇息的时候,山告诉我,来吧,胜利就在眼前。终于,在这一声声的鼓舞中,我登上了最高的山峰。
站在山顶环望四周,只见郁郁葱葱的松林,似火一样的枫林和缥缥缈缈的云雾,让人感觉进入了仙境。而漂浮在云雾中的一个个峰顶,就像夕阳映红下的茫茫大海中点缀的一座座岛屿。这饱经狂风暴雨仍巍然不动的山峰,让我敬佩不已。
