  :蝙蝠、鳥和野獸

  The bat, the birds,and the beasts

  There was a big fight between the birds and the beasts. The bat did not join in the fight.

  Some birds said to the bat, "Come with us." But he replied, "I am a beast."

  Later on, some beasts said to him, "Come with us." But he replied, "I am a bird."

  At last the fighting ended peacefully. The bat first went to the birds, and wanted to join in the celebration, but they all turned against him. He then went to the beasts, but was also driven away.

  蝙蝠、鳥和野獸

  鳥與野獸宣戰,蝙蝠沒有參戰。

  鳥對蝙蝠說:“加入我們吧。”蝙蝠回答說:“我是野獸。”

  後來,一些野獸對蝙蝠說:“加入我們吧。”但是蝙蝠回答說:“我是鳥。”

  當鳥和野獸宣告停戰和平時,交戰雙方明白了蝙蝠的欺騙行為。蝙蝠來到鳥類當中,他們都敵視他,蝙蝠去野獸那裡,也被趕走。

  寓意: 兩面三刀的人,最終不會有好的下場。

  :龜兔賽跑

  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.

  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。

  :金絲雀與蝙蝠

  The cage bird and the bat

  A bird was confined in a cage outside a window. She often sang at night when all other birds were asleep.

  One night a bat came. He asked the bird why she was silent by day and sang only at night.

  The bird answered, “Last year when I was singing in the daytime, a bird catcher heard my voice and caught me in his net.Since then I have never sung by day.”

  The bat replied, "But it is useless to do this now that you have become a prisoner." Then he flew away.

  金絲雀與蝙蝠

  掛在視窗籠裡的金絲雀,經常在鳥兒睡著的夜裡歌唱。

  一天晚上,蝙蝠來了,飛過來問她為什麼白天安靜無聲,夜裡卻要歌唱。

  金絲雀回答說:“去年我在白天唱歌時,捕鳥人聽到我的歌聲抓住了我。從此,我再也不在白天唱歌了。”

  蝙蝠說:“你現在才懂得謹慎已沒用了,你若在變為囚徒之前就懂得,那該多好呀!”說完就飛走了。

  寓意: 我們應該在危險發生之前就提高警覺,因為危險一旦發生,我們再怎樣小心也沒有用了。
