伊索寓言英文原文

　　《伊索寓言》相傳為公元前六世紀(jì)，共三百五十七篇。大部分把人比喻為動物來諷刺。

　　樹和斧子，對敵人施以小惠就是對自己殘忍

　　英語原文：

　　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."

　　中文譯文：

　　有一個樵夫來到森林里,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(lǐng)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.樵夫剛按好斧柄,就開始到處亂砍,森林里最高的樹都砍倒了,樹林現(xiàn)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(shù)年呢."

　　結(jié)論：這故事諷刺忘恩負(fù)義的人，也告訴我們對敵人的施舍就是對自己的殘忍。

　　一只貪心的狗,貪的太多只會失去更多

　　A GREedy dog went into a butcher’s shop and stole a big juicy bone. He ran away so fast that the butcher could not catch him. He ran out into the fields with his bone. He was going to eat it all by himself.

　　一只貪心的'狗跑到一家豬肉店偷了一根很大又有髓的骨頭.他跑很快,所以那個賣豬肉的人追不到他.他咬著他的大骨頭跑到空曠的地方,準(zhǔn)備要好好地吃個痛快.

　　the dog came to a stream. There was a narrow bridge across it. The dog walked on to the bridge, and looked into the water. He could see another dog with a big bone in his mouth.

　　這只狗來到一條溪流.有一座窄窄的橋跨在上面.這只狗走到橋上,望水里面看.他看見另一只狗嘴里咬著一跟大骨頭.

　　the GREedy dog dropped the bone from his mouth. It fell into the water and was lost. He jumped into the water to snatch the bigger bone from the other dog.

　　這只貪心的狗從嘴理丟了那根骨頭.它掉到水里而且不見了.他跳進(jìn)去水里面想從另一只狗那兒抓那跟更大的骨頭.

　　the GREedy dog jumped into the water with a big splash. He looked everywhere but he could not see the other dog. His shadow had gone.
