吴员外有一间很大的.书房,书房里有许多许多的藏书。不过,对于这些书他却疏于管理,这就便宜了书房里专门吃书的书虫。
这一天,书虫刚刚吞下了一本《诗经》,他得意地说:“我应该到外面去看看,让天下人都知道我是大学问家。”于是,书虫就爬出了书房,开始了他的游历。可是,游历过程中他备受挫折,蜣螂、苍蝇都欺侮他。书虫又迷惑又委屈,找到了吴员外,问他:“我满肚子都是《诗》、《书》,可以称得上是大学问家了,可为什么还有这么我的无名之辈欺负我呢?”
吴员外听了书虫的话,笑道:“你虽然有很多的学问,怎奈食而不化,又有什么用呢?”
[含义]学习再多的知识,如果食而不化,不知道如何运用,也是没有用的。
I have read a book the other day called The Monkey’s Paw which is written by W.W.Jacobs.The story began on a cold and dark night.Old Mr White got a magic monkey paw from his friend Morris.Morris who told him that the monkey paw could give three wishes to three people,but it couldn’t bring them happiness.However,Old Mr White still used the paw to make wishes without listening to Morris’s discourage.Finally, he got thirty thousand pounds but his son died.At the end of the story,Mrs White almost became crazy.The whole family fell into sadness and fear.
This story is gripping and also a little scary.It is tragic and sobering.The plot is both unexpected and reasonable.Although Old Mr White’s friend had warned him,but he didn’t listen.At last it became a tragedy.What caused all this?It’s obvious that the Mr White’s greed. He wanted to get the money with no pay,but that is impossible in this world.I’m afraid he’ll live out the rest of his life in regret. The three men who used the monkey’s paw all paid an irreparable price for their greed.
This short novel tells us a lesson that we can’t daydream.Waiting for money and success comes with no pay is stupid and not realistic.We should work and study harder.Chase the treasure on your own without regret or sadness.
