Two men were travelling together,one of whom never spoke the truth,whereas the other never told a lie:and they came in the course of their travels to the land of Apes The King of the Apes,hearing of their arrival,ordered them to be brought before him;and by way of impressing them with his magnificence,he received them sitting on a throne,while the Apes,his subjects,were ranged in long rows on either side of him When the Travellers came into his presence he asked them what they thought of him as a King.The lying Traveller said,“Sire,every one must see that you are a most noble and mighty monarch.”“And what do you think of my subjects?”continued the King“They,”said the Traveller,“are in every way wo——hy of their royal master.”TheApe was so delighted with his answer that he gave him a very handsome present.The other Traveller thought that ifhis companion was rewarded so splendidly for telling a lie,he himself would certainly receive a still greater reward for telling the truth;so,when the Ape turned to him and said,“And what,sir,is your opinion?”he replied,“I think you are a very fine Ape,and all your subjects are fine Apes too.”The King of the Apes was so enraged at his reply that he ordered him to be taken away and clawed to death.
事情是这样的,有一天,我正在赶作业,同桌猛的碰了我一下,本子上被画了一道。我瞄了她一眼,她居然没有一点要向我道歉的意思,并且若无其事的`回了我一眼。我顿时火冒三丈,“哼,小样,等会我也让你尝尝本子被划破的滋味。”趁她不注意,我狠狠的肘了她一下,她睁大眼睛骂道:“你敢碰本姑娘,你…….你是个什么东西。”我也不甘示弱,心想“别以为你是女生,你就可以骂人;别以为我口头表达能力不好,我就不敢和你对骂。”于是,我们扯着嗓门互骂起来。只见她脸涨的通红,气的只发抖。终于,对骂不解气,我两开始对干起来。她一个降龙十八拳,我一个无敌飞影脚。“叮铃铃”上课铃声响了,我们的战争不得不逼迫停止。
数学课上,我们也没有心思听课,还不停地在桌子底下你来我往的踢着,桌子被踢得“哐哐”作响。我们谁也不理谁了。
晚上回到家,数学作业就像天文数字一样,无从下手。我给妈妈说了今天和同桌对骂和对斗的事,希望妈妈能看在我能够战胜自己的弱点的进步上,不会生气。没想到妈妈却说:“你要是天天在课堂上这样,我看你就不用上课,直接放羊去的了。”妈妈给我又重新讲了一遍,终于,作业被我准确无误的做完了。我真后悔今天的举动,要是天天这样,也许我就真的该去放羊了。
我在想,我的同桌今天肯定也没有听懂吧!我又想起,以前我总是看不见黑板上的字,我就会去看她的,抄作业的时候,也总是她先抄完,然后我在抄她的。
第二天一早,同桌斜着眼,嘴巴上像是挂了个油葫芦似得对我说:“昨天你不是都不会做吗?怎么一夜之间就都变会了呢?”我没有再继续接茬,我知道她这会心里肯定特生气。“要是昨天上课的时候,我们没有吵架,就不会发生都不会做题的现象了。”只见她的脸上由阴转晴,举手表示赞同。
同桌,我想对你说:“以后让我们和平相处,减少暴力,共同进步,不要共同落后。”今天借此机会,你就权当我是为自己的语言表达能力不佳而找的借口吧!
人们常说:“两虎相斗,必有一伤。”我看,不是必有一伤,而是两败俱伤。以后我们再也不干像这样伤和气、毁形象,没有任何意义的事了。
从前有两个人,一个总爱说实话,一个却只说谎话。
有一次,他们偶然来到了猿猴国。一只自称为国王的猿猴吩咐手下捉住这两个人,他个人,他要询问这两人对他的看法。同时他还下令,所有的猿猴都要像人类的朝廷仪式那样,将在他左右分列成两行,中间给他放一个王位。
一切准备妥当后,他发令,将那两人带到面前来,对那两个人说:"先生们,你们看,我是怎样的国王?"
说谎的人回答说:"在我看来,你就像一个最有权力的国王。"
"那旁边的这些猿猴呢?"
那人连忙说:"他们都是你的栋梁之材,至少都能做大使和将帅。"
那猿猴国王和他的手下听到这番谎话,十分得意,高兴地吩咐将美好的礼物送给这个阿谀奉承的人。
那位说真话的人见到这般情形,心想:"一番谎话可得这般丰厚的报酬,那么,若我依照习惯,说了真话,又将怎样呢?"
这时,那猿猴国王转过身来问他:"请问你觉得我和我的这些朋友怎么样呢?"
他说道:"你是一只最优秀的猿猴,依此类推,你的所有同伴都是优秀的猿猴。"
猿猴国王听到这些真话后,恼羞成怒,将说真话的人扔给手下去处置。
故事寓意:这故事是说,许多人宁愿相信謟媚的假话,却不爱听道出实质的真话。
