  篇1

  One morning a countryman went to his goose's nest, and saw a yellow and glittering egg there.

  He took the egg home. To his delight, he found that it was an egg of pure gold.

  Every morning the same thing occurred, and he soon became rich by selling his eggs.

  The countryman became more and more greedy. He wanted to get all the gold at once, so he killed the goose, when he looked inside, he found nothing in its body.

  一天早晨,一位農夫發現自家的鵝窩中有一隻金燦燦的蛋。

  他將蛋帶回家,驚喜地發現這是一個金蛋。

  此後,農夫每天都能得到一個金蛋。從此,他靠賣他的金蛋變得富有起來。

  農夫變得越來越貪婪,他想一下子得到鵝肚子中所有的金蛋。於是他殺死了鵝,但是,鵝肚子中什麼也沒有。

  篇2

  樹和斧子

  A Woodman came into a forest to ask the Trees to give him a handle for Ax. It seemed so modest a request that the principal tree at once agreed to it, and it was settled among them that the plain, homely Ash should furnish what was wanted. No sooner had the Woodman fitted the staff to his purpose, than he began laying about him on all side. Felling the whole matter too late, whispered to the Cedar: "The first concession has lost all. If we has not a sacrificed our humble neighbor, we might have yet stood for ages ourselves."

  有一個樵夫來到森林裡,要求樹給他一跟斧柄,看來他的請求非常謙虛,立刻得到了樹的首領的同意。他們決定由平凡而樸素的白楊樹來提供所需要的東西。樵夫剛安好斧柄,就開始到處亂砍,森林裡最高的樹都砍倒了,樹林現在察覺大勢已去,就小聲對衫樹說:“第一次的讓步已失去了一切。如果我們不犧牲我們的小小的鄰居,我們自己還可以活無數年呢。”

  篇3

  功虧一簣

  Once a man planned to build a terrace.

  He worked very hard and spent a lot of time digging and carrying earth.

  When the mound was almost completed and only one more basket of earth was needed, the man gave up.

  The terrace was never completed.

  This idiom means to fail to succeed for lack of final effort.

  古時,有一個人要築一座九仞***八尺=一仞***高的山。

  他十分努力的建造這座山,並且花了很多時間挖土、搬運泥土。

  終於當山快要建成的時候,幾乎只差最後一籃子的泥土就行了的時候,他放棄了。

  這座山便永遠無法完工。

  這個典故用以形容“離成功只有一步之遙,但最終失敗告終”的意思。
