英語勵志寓言:The Hare And The tortoise

英語勵志寓言:The Hare And The tortoise

The hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. “I have never been beaten,” he said, “when I run at full speed, no one is faster than me.”

The tortoise said quietly, “I will race with you.” “That is a good joke,” said the hare. “I could dance around you the whole way.”

The race started. The hare darted almost out of sight at once. He soon stopped and lay down to have a nap.

The tortoise plodded on and on. When the hare awoke from his nap, he saw the tortoise was near the finish line, and that he had lost the race.

參考譯文:

《龜兔賽跑》

兔子向動物們誇耀他的速度,“我從來沒有失敗過,” 他說,“當我奔跑時,沒有人比我更快。”

烏龜平靜地說:“我要與你比賽。”“真是笑話,我可以邊玩邊和你賽跑。”兔子說。

比賽開始了,一眨眼工夫,兔子已經跑得不見了蹤影,但是他覺得自己跑得快,對比賽掉以輕心,躺在路邊睡著了。

烏龜慢騰騰地卻持續不停地走,當兔子一覺醒來,他看到烏龜已經快到終點線了。兔子輸了比賽。

寓意:驕兵必敗;只有持之以恆,才能實現目標。

英語勵志故事: The Dove And The Ant

An ant was drinking at a river. Suddenly he slipped, and fell into the water.

A dove took pity on him. She threw a small branch into the river. The ant seized the bough, and swam back to the shore.

A few days later, the ant saw a hunter aiming a gun at the dove. He bit the man in the foot sharply.

The man missed the shot, and the dove's life was saved.

The dove felt very grateful. She made good friends with the ant.

參考譯文:

《鴿子和螞蟻》

一隻螞蟻到河邊飲水,

卻不幸掉入河中。

一隻鴿子看見,扔下一段樹枝,將他救起。

過了不久,螞蟻看見獵人正在拿槍瞄準鴿子,就狠狠地朝他腳上咬了一口,沒讓他打中。

鴿子非常感激螞蟻。從此,他們成了好朋友。

寓意:有些朋友也許平時看似微不足道,但卻有可能在我們身處困境的時候提供巨大的幫助。
