蛇本来是没有脚的，你怎么能给它添上脚呢？

in the warring states period, a man in the state of chu was
offering a sacrifice to his ancestors. after the ceremony, the
man gave a beaker of wine to his servants. the servants
thought that there was not enough wine for all them, and
decided to each draw a picture of a snake; the one who
finished the picture first would get the wine. one of them drew
very rapidly. seeing that the others were still busy drawing, he
added feet to the snake. at this moment another man finished,
snatched the beaker and drank the wine, saying, a snake
doesnt have feet. how can you add feet to a snake?

朝三暮四

there was once a man who raised monkeys at home. in time,

情。

the man was not rich and often had to cut down his household
expenses to feed the monkeys. when times turned rough, he
had to reduce the monkeysfeed as well.


养猴人并不富有，常常要节衣缩食去 喂饱猴子。不过，当境况变得
更坏时，他只好减少猴子的食粮。

the man was afraid that the monkeys would not remain tame.
to test their response, he told the monkeys, fro, now on, ill

1

give each of you three chestnuts in the morning and four at
night. is that all right with you?

养猴人生怕猴子会因此而变得不听话，便用试探它们的口气说：
「从今天起，我每天早上给你们三颗 栗子，晚上再给四颗，好吗？」

when the monkeys learned that their ration was to be reduced,
they flew into a rage. seeing how mad the monkeys were, the
man corrected himself at once.


猴子一听到养猴人要减少它们的食粮，都非常生气。

all right, he told them, ill give you four chestnuts in the
morning and three at night then.


於是，养猴人马上改口说：「那么，改为早上给四颗，晚上再给三

滥竽充数

the man who faked his music

king xuan of qi was fond of music. in particular, he enjoyed
listening to a wind instrument called the yu. he appreciated it
most when the yu was played by a band of about three
hundred
musicians.
齐宣王喜欢听竽，尤其是三百人大乐队的吹奏。

one time there was a vacancy in the royal band. when nanguo
heard about it, he applied for the post.
有一次，宣王招聘乐师。
南郭先生听到了这消息，就前往应聘。

nanguo was not a musician at all. he had applied for the post
simply because he was poor and it paid well.
南郭先生其实不会
吹竽。他应聘的原因，是因为他家贫，兼且乐师的待遇又丰厚。

nanaguo was lucky. nobody knew he was faking. his luck did
not last long, though, because king xuan soon died and young
prince min became king.


南郭先生相当幸运，没有人发觉他在乐队中装模做样， 冒充内行。
可是好景不常，宣王不久去世，闵王继位。

king min also enjoyed listening to the yu. unlike his father, he
preferred listening to the musicians playing solo. as soons as
nanguo got wind of the news, he sneaked away as fast as he
could.
闵王也爱听竽，不过，他跟他的父亲不同，他喜欢听乐师们
一一独奏。 南郭先生知道后，便马上溜走了。

郭氏之墟
(the ruin of the capital of guo shi)

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.


齐桓公出游途中，来到已经灭亡许久的郭氏都城的废墟。


看到瓦砾残垣、杂草丛生的萧条景象，忍不住问当地百姓郭氏灭亡
的原因。


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。

老鼠和公牛
(a mouse and a bull)

a mouse once took a bite out of a bulls 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.

2

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:

its not always the big people who come off best. sometimes
the small ones win, you know.


老鼠和公牛


有一次，公牛躺着打盹，一只老鼠咬了他的尾巴。公牛怒气冲冲地
跳起来，低着头追 老鼠，一直追过院子。然而，老鼠跑得比他快多
了，从容地钻到墙洞里去了。

公牛一次又一次地猛撞墙壁，尽管头撞肿了，角撞裂了，老鼠却安
然待在洞里。过了一会儿，公牛不 撞了，倒下歇着。


公牛刚睡着，小老鼠就爬到洞口，嗒嗒地跑过院子，又咬了公牛一
口
??
这回咬了鼻子
??
又跑回安全的地方去。当公牛毫无办法地吼
叫时，老鼠吱吱叫道：


大人物并不总占上风。有时小人物也会取胜。

tell his mother what had happened.

( a parrot and a cat)

a man once bought a brilliantly-coloured parrot. instead of
locking it up in a cage or chaining it to a perch, he allowed it to
fly free all over the house. the parrot was delighted at this and
flapped from room to room, shrieking and screaming with
happiness. at last he settled on the edge of a rich curtain.

who on earth are you ? said a cross voice from below. stop
that terrible noise at once.

the parrot saw a cat staring up at him from the carpet.

i m a parrot. i ve just arrived and i m to make as much noise as
i can, he said.

well, i ve lived here all my life, replied the cat .i was born in
this very house and i learned from my mother that it is best to
keep quiet here.

you do around here, but i know my job. my master bought me
for my voice and im going to make sure he hears it.

地尖声叫着，最后停在华丽的帷幔的边上。


你到底是谁？从下面传来怒气冲冲的说话声，马上住嘴，别发出那
难听的声音。

我是鹦鹉。
