狐貍在我們的心中一向是“狡猾”的,烏鴉是我們?nèi)粘9适轮薪?jīng)常提到動(dòng)物之一,而今天的寓言故事就是圍繞這兩個(gè)動(dòng)物進(jìn)行的,主要講述的是狐貍想吃烏鴉嘴里的肉,它該用什么方法呢?
好了,快來(lái)看看狡猾的狐貍是怎么做的:
One day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy with the meat in his mouth.
有一天,一只烏鴉站在窩旁的樹(shù)枝上嘴里叼著一片肉,心里非常高興。
At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so he swallowed and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat.
這時(shí)候,一只狐貍看見(jiàn)了烏鴉,饞得直流口水,非常想得到那片肉。
However, whatever the fox said to the crow, the crow just kept silent.
但是,無(wú)論狐貍說(shuō)什么,烏鴉就是不理睬狐貍。
Until the fox thought highly of the crow’s beautiful voice, the crow felt flattered and opened his mouth to sing.
最后,狐貍贊美烏鴉的嗓音最優(yōu)美,并要求烏鴉唱幾句讓他欣賞欣賞。烏鴉聽(tīng)了狐貍贊美的話(huà),得意極了,就唱起歌來(lái)。
As soon as the meat fell down to the ground, the fox took the meat and went into his hole.
沒(méi)想到,肉一掉下來(lái),狐貍就叼起肉,鉆回了洞
詞匯學(xué)習(xí):
crow [kr??] 烏鴉;雞啼
eagerly['i:g?li] 渴望地,熱切地,急切的
今天的故事非常的簡(jiǎn)短,這則故事的寓言:過(guò)分地相信他人會(huì)使自己陷于危險(xiǎn)的地步。
