1、A PIGEON（鴿子）

A pigeon, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard. Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly.

Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders.

Moral：Zeal should not outrun discretion.

翻譯：一隻鴿子口渴得很難受，看見畫板上畫著一隻水杯。她並不以為那隻是一幅畫，而是發出一聲響亮的呼嚕聲，朝畫飛去，無意中撞在了招牌上，把自己撞得很不穩。她的翅膀被風吹斷了，摔在地上，被一個旁觀者抓住。

2、The Raven and the Swan（烏鴉和天鵝）

A raven saw a Swan and desired to secure for himself the same beautiful plumage. Supposing that the Swan's splendid white color arose from his washing in the water in which he swam,

the Raven left the altars in the neighborhood where he picked up his living, and took up residence in the lakes and pools. But cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished.

Moral：Change of habit cannot alter Nature.

翻譯：一隻烏鴉看到了一隻天鵝，想要得到同樣美麗的羽毛。假如天鵝的美麗的白色是由於它在水裡游泳時洗過澡而產生的，那麼烏鴉就離開它生活的地方，到湖裡和水潭裡去住下來。但是，盡管他經常清洗自己的羽毛，卻無法改變它們的顏色，而由於缺乏食物，他就死了。

3、The Bat and the Weasels（蝙蝠與黃鼠狼）

Abat who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel pleaded to be spared his life. The Weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free.

Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. The Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice.

The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped.

Moral：It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.

翻譯：一隻蝙蝠墜落到地上，被黃鼠狼叼去，他請求饒命。黃鼠狼拒絕了，說他生來就是鳥類的天敵。蝙蝠向他保證他不是一隻鳥，而是一隻老鼠，於是就被放了出來。

不一會兒，蝙蝠又掉到地上，被另一隻黃鼠狼捉住了，他請求討饒。黃鼠狼說他特別恨老鼠。蝙蝠向他保證自己不是老鼠，而是一隻蝙蝠，因此第二次逃走了。

4、The Ass and the Grasshopper（驢子與蚱蜢）

An ass having heard some Grasshoppers chirping, was highly enchanted; and, desiring to possess the same charms of melody, demanded what sort of food they lived on to give them such beautiful voices.

They replied, "The dew." The Ass resolved that he would live only upon dew, and in a short time died of hunger.

Moral：People should not expect anything out of proportion.

翻譯：驢子聽見蚱蜢唱歌，被美妙動聽的歌聲所打動，自己也想能發出同樣悅耳動聽的聲音，便羨慕地問他們吃些什麼，才能發出如此美妙的聲音來。蚱蜢答道：「吃露水。」驢子便也只吃露水，沒多久就餓死了。

5、The Dog and the Shadow（狗和影子）

It happened that a Dog had got a piece of meat and was carrying it home in his mouth to eat it in peace. Now, on his way home he had to cross a plank lying across a running brook. As he crossed, he looked down and saw his own shadow reflected in the water beneath.

Thinking it was another dog with another piece of meat, he made up his mind to have that also. So he made a snap at the shadow in the water, but as he opened his mouth the piece of meat fell out, dropped into the water and was never seen more.

Moral：Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow.

翻譯：一隻狗嘴裡銜著一塊肉，走過一條河上面的橋，看見他自己在水裡的影子，以為是另一隻狗，那時狗銜著的肉，比他自己的還要大一倍。

因此他仍掉自己的那一塊，狠狠地撲向那隻狗，想奪到那一塊較大的肉。結果兩頭都落了空，因為他想要抓取在水中的那一塊，只不過是一個影子，而原來的那一塊，也被水沖走了。

6、A bird in a nghill（糞堆里的小鳥）

經典英語小故事（一）：

A mouse once took a bite out of a bull's tail as he lay dozing。 The bull jumped up in a rage and， with his head low to the ground， chased the mouse right across the yard。 The mouse was too quick for him， however， and slipped easily into a hole in the wall。

The bull charged the wall furiously again and again， but although he bruised his head and chipped his horns， the mouse stayed safely inside his hole。 After a time the bull gave up and sank down to rest again。

As soon as the bull was asleep， the little mouse crept to the mouth of the hole， pattered across the yard， bit the bull again -- this time on the nose -- and rushed back to safety。 As the bull roared helplessly the mouse squeaked:

"It's not always the big people who e off best。 Sometimes the small ones win， you know。"

老鼠和公牛

有一次，公牛躺著打盹，一隻老鼠咬了他的尾巴。公牛怒氣沖沖地跳起來，低著頭追老鼠，一向追過院子。然而，老鼠跑得比他快多了，從容地鑽到牆洞里去了。

公牛一次又一次地猛撞牆壁，盡管頭撞腫了，角撞裂了，老鼠卻安然待在洞里。過了一會兒，公牛不撞了，倒下歇著。

公牛剛睡著，小老鼠就爬到洞口，嗒嗒地跑過院子，又咬了公牛一口??這回咬了鼻子??又跑回安全的地方去。當公牛毫無辦法地吼叫時，老鼠吱吱叫道：

"大人物並不總占上風。有時小人物也會取勝。"

經典英語小故事（二）：

On a vacation trip， Duke Huan of the state of Qi came to the ruin of the capital of Guo Shi ， which perished long ago。

Seeing the desolate and bleak prospects of broken tiles， collapsed walls， and clusters of weeds， he could not help asking the local people about the reason of the ruin of Guo Shi。

They replied，"Guo Shi was fond of doing good deeds， and averse to evildoing， which led to the perdition。"

When the Duke could not understand the answer， people explained ，" Though he liked doing good， he had never been able to do so; though he hated evildoing， never could he help not participating。 That caused the ruin of his capital。"

郭氏之墟

齊桓公出遊途中，來到已經滅亡許久的郭氏都城的廢墟。

看到瓦礫殘垣、雜草叢生的蕭條景象，忍不住問當地百姓郭氏滅亡的原因。

百姓們回答說："郭氏由於喜愛善行善事。厭惡邪惡醜行而導致滅亡。"

齊桓公不能理解這種回答，百姓們便解釋說："郭氏雖然喜愛善行善事，但從來都不能做到;盡管厭惡邪惡醜行，卻總是忍不住參與其中。這就是他的都城變成廢墟的原因。"

經典英語小故事（三）：

Making His Mark

A man from the state of Chu was taking a boat across a river when he dropped his sword into the water carelessly。 Immediately he made a mark on the side of the boat where the sword dropped， hoping to find it later。 When the boat stopped moving， he went into the water to search for his sword at the place where he had marked the boat。 As we know， the boat had moved but the sword had not。 Isn't this a very foolish way to look for a sword?

刻舟求劍

楚國有個人坐船渡江時，他不細心把自我的一把寶劍掉落江中。他立刻掏出一把小刀，在寶劍落水的船舷上刻上一個記號。船靠岸後，那楚人立即從船上刻記號的地方跳下水去撈取掉落的寶劍。他怎樣找得到寶劍呢？船繼續行駛，而寶劍卻不會再移動。像他這樣去找劍，真是太愚蠢可笑了。

經典英語小故事（四）：

One night a robber stole all the gold。 When the miser came again， he found nothing but an empty hole。

他告訴他們那裡原先有他的金塊。

You should e and live in the city。 You would live in a nice house made of stone。 You would have nice food to eat。 You must e and see me at my house in the city。"

The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse。 It was a very good house。 Nice food was set ready for them to eat。 But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise。 The City mouse cried， " Run! Run! The cat is ing!" They ran away quickly and hid。

After some time they came out。 When they came out， the Country mouse said， "I do not like living in the city。 I like living in my hole in the field。 For it is nicer to be poor and happy， than to be rich and afraid。"

鄉下老鼠就到城裡老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的東西也為他們擺好了。可是正當他們要開始吃的時候，聽見很大的一陣響聲，城裡的老鼠叫喊起來：「快跑！快跑！貓來了！」他們飛快地跑開躲藏起來。

過了一會兒，他們出來了。當他們出來時，鄉下老鼠說：「我不喜歡住在城裡，我喜歡住在田野我的洞里。因為這樣雖然貧窮可是歡樂自在，比起雖然富有卻要過著提心吊膽的生活來說，要好些。

經典英語小故事（六）：

A Man and a Satyr having struck up an acquaintance， sat down together to eat。 The day being wintry and cold， the Man put his fingers to his mouse and blew opon them。 "What's that for， my friend?" asked the Satyr。 " My hands are so cold，" said the Man， "I do it to warm them。" In a little while some hot food was placed before them， and the Man， raising the dish to his mouse， again blew opon it。 "And what's the meaning of that， now?" said the Satyr。 "Oh，" replied the Man， "my porridge is so hot， I do it to cool it。" "Nay， then，" said the Satyr， "from this moment I renounce your friendship， for I will have nothing to do with one who blows hot and cold with the same mouse。"
