a
hugely
popular
affair.

of
people
across
the
globe
take

their
mothers,
thank
them

their
efforts
in
giving
them
life,
raising them and being their constant support and well wisher.......

One time there was a vacancy in the royal band. When Nanguo heard about it, he applied for the post.

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,

When the Duke could not understand the answer, people explained ,
so; though he hated evildoing, never could he help not participating. That caused the ruin of his capital.




齐桓公出游途中,来到已经灭亡许久的郭氏都城的废墟。

百姓们回答说:

郭氏由于喜爱善行善事。厌恶邪恶丑行而导致灭亡。



齐桓公不能理解这种回答,百姓们便解释说:

郭氏虽然喜爱善行善事 ,但从来都不能做到;尽管厌恶邪恶丑行,却
总是忍不住参与其中。这就是他的都城变成废墟的原因。< br>

老鼠和公牛
(a mouse and a bull)
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.
