1.口渴的烏鴉

　　The crow and the pitcher-----------------

　　A crow felt very thirsty. He looked for water everywhere. Finally, he found a pitcher.

　　But there was not a lot of water in the pitcher. His beak could not reach it. He tried again and again, but still could not touch the water.

　　When he was about to give up, an idea came to him. He took a pebble and dropped it into the pitcher. Then he took another and dropped it in.

　　Gradually, the water rose, and the crow was able to drink the water.

　　●一只烏鴉口渴了，到處找水喝。終于，他找到了一個大水罐。

　　●然而，水罐里面的水并不多，他的尖嘴夠不到水面，他試了一次又一次，都沒有成功。

　　●就在他想放棄的時候，他突然想到一個主意。烏鴉叼來了一塊小石子投到水罐里，接著又叼了一塊又一塊石頭放進(jìn)去。

　　●漸漸地，水面升高了。烏鴉高興地喝到了水。

　　寓意: 有些東西雖然看起來微不足道，但如果積少成多，便會帶來很大變化。

　　2.兩個農(nóng)夫

　　Once upon a time two peasants attempted to pass each other and their sledges became entangled. One cried, “Get out of my way; I must get to the town as quickly as possible;” and the other said, “You get out of my way; I must get home as quickly as possible.”

　　Thus for a long time they disputed. A third peasant saw it and said, “If you are in such a hurry, then each of you gives way a little.”

　　有一次，兩個農(nóng)夫正要交臂而過，他們的雪橇卻勾在一起了。一個農(nóng)夫嚷道：“給我讓路，我要盡快趕到城里去呢。”另一個說：“你給我讓路，我得盡快趕回家去。”

　　兩人就這樣沒完沒了爭執(zhí)不下。第三個農(nóng)夫看到了說：“既然你們兩人都這么急，那就各自退讓一點吧。”

　　3.為我所用

　　“請再說一遍，讓我把它記下來。”老鼠說。“我要講給我認(rèn)識的一只跳蚤聽。
