公雞和寶玉

A COCK, scratching for food for himself and his hens, found a precious stone and exclaimed: "If your owner had found thee, and not I, he would have taken thee up, and have set thee in thy first estate; but I have found thee for no purpose. I would rather have one barleycorn than all the jewels in the world."

一隻公雞在田野裏爲自己和母雞們尋找食物。他發現了一塊寶玉，便對寶玉說：“若不是我，而是你的主人找到了你，他會非常珍惜地把你撿起來；但我發現了你卻毫無用處。我 與其得到世界上一切寶玉，倒不如得到一顆麥子好。”

這是說自己需要的東西纔是真正珍貴的。

國小三年級雙語故事 篇二

A crow, ready to die with thirst, flew with joy to a pitcher which he saw at a distance. But when he came up to it, he found the water so low that with all his stooping and straining he was unable to reach it. Thereupon he tried to bread the pitcher, then to overturn it, seeing some small pebbles at hand, he dropped a great many of them, one by one, into the pitcher, and so raised the water to the brim, and quenched his thirst.

一隻快渴死的烏鴉，遠遠地看見一隻水壺，就高興地飛了過去，但是當他飛到的時候發現壺裏的水淺得怎麼用力彎腰伸頸也夠不着，於是他試着把水壺打破，又試着把他推倒。但是力量不足，都做不到，最後看見近邊有許多小石子，他一個個地把很多石子丟進了水壺，這樣使水上升到壺口，就解了渴。

中英雙語小故事：此一時，彼一時 篇三

One day, a king was travelling in his own land. He saw a farmer so absorbed in his work that he did not even notice a snake coiling round his leg.

一天，國王在他的國家巡遊，看見一個農夫正專心地鋤地，以至連一條蛇纏住他的腿都沒有發覺。

The king shouted,“Dear man, there is a snake on your leg!”

國王大聲驚叫起來：“漢子，你的腿被一條蛇纏住了呀！”

The farmer just shook the snake off and continued his work.

農夫抖了抖腿把蛇甩開，然後繼續鋤地。

The king was very curious and asked,“Dear man, don't you know that the snake can harm you? You ignored it and kept working. Is the work more important than your life?”

國王感到很奇怪，問：“漢子，你不知道那蛇會咬傷你嗎？你卻滿不在乎地幹活，難道幹活比你的命還重要嗎？”

The farmer said,“Your Majesty, the only thing that is threatening me is not the snake but the food. If I don't work hard, when the next spring comes, my family members will starve to death!”

農夫說：“陛下，真正威脅我生命的不是蛇，而是食物。如果我不拼命耕作，明年春天一到，我一家老小就全餓死了！”

The king sympathized with the farmer and he instructed his prime minister to give the farmer a big sum of money.

國王聽了，很同情這個農夫的處境，他命令首相給了農夫一大筆救濟金。

A year later, the king met the farmer again. He was well dressed and looked rather plump. He was not farming now but there was a bandage on his right arm.

一年後，國王又遇見了那個農夫。他衣着華麗，腦滿腸肥，甚爲富裕。他沒有鋤地，右臂纏着繃帶。

The king asked him,“Dear man, what happened to your arm?”

國王上前問他：“漢子，你的胳膊怎麼啦？”

“Your Majesty,”the farmer replied,“my finger was pricked by a thorn on the pumpkin. Now I need a rest to take care of my arm.”

“陛下！”農夫答道，“我的手指被南瓜刺紮了一下。現在我需要休息來養養胳膊。”

The king was astonished.“When you were such a poor man, you were not afraid of a snake bite. You only kept working hard. But now you need a rest after being pricked by a little thorn on the pumpkin!”

國王驚歎道：“啊！想當年你窮的時候，蛇都不怕，拼命地幹活。現在讓南瓜刺紮了一下就想歇息了！”

The farmer said,“Your Majesty, you have forgotten what people usually say: that was before, now it is different!”

農夫說：“尊敬的國王，您忘了人們常說：此一時，彼一時嘛！”

One day, Confucius led his disciples1 to the State of Chu. When crossing a stretch of forest, they saw a hunchbacked old man standing2 under a tree, catching3 cicadas with a bamboo stick. With each stroke he caught one cicada, just as easily as picking it up at will. Confucius asked: “You are very skillful at catching cicadas. You must have followed some pattern.”

“That's right!”the old man answered. ”The cicada is a clever little insect. It would fly away at the mere4 rustling5 of leaves in the wind. Therefore, to catch cicadas, one must, first of all, train one's hand to hold the bamboo stick without shaking. When 2 pellets are put on the top of the bamboo stick and do not fall off, one has certain assurance in catching cicadas; when 3 pellets are put there and do not fall off, only one cicada out of ten can manage to escape; when 5 pellets are put there and do not fall off, then catching cicadas is as easy as picking them up at will.“

He then added: ”But that is not enough. One must be good at hiding oneself. Now I am standing under a tree, just like half of a tree stump6, with my arm stretching out like part of a withered7 twig8. Last of all, one must be attentive9. When I am catching cicadas, I don't think at all of the vastness of the universe, nor do I look at the numerous things around. I only see the two wings of the cicada. No matter what happens, nothing will distract my attention. As I manage to accomplish all these, I can be so skillful at catching cicadas.“

Hearing this, Confucius turned to his disciples and said: ”Whatever you do, only when you persevere10 with concentrated attention and devotion, can you achieve the acme11 of perfection. This is the truth that this hunchbacked old man has taught us.“

一天，孔子帶着弟子去楚國。穿過一片樹林的時候，他們看到一位駝背老人站在樹下，手拿竹竿捕蟬，一粘一隻，就像隨手拾來一樣容易。孔子問：“您捕蟬捕得這麼熟練，一定掌握了什麼規律吧？”

老人回答說：“是啊！蟬是一種非常乖巧的小蟲。一有風吹草動，它就飛掉了，所以要捕蟬，首先要練得手拿竹竿不晃動。一直練到在竹竿頂端放兩顆彈丸不掉下來的時候，捕蟬就有了一定的把握；當放三顆彈丸不掉下來的時候，捕十隻蟬只會逃走一隻；當放五顆彈丸不掉下來的時候，捕蟬就像隨手拾取一樣容易了。”

又說：“不過，這還不夠，還必須善於隱蔽自己。我現在站在樹下，就像是半截子樹樁；伸出去的手臂，就像是一段枯萎的樹枝。最後，還必須用心專一。我捕蟬時，根本不想天地多麼廣大，也不看衆多萬物，只看見蟬的兩隻翅膀，不管發生什麼情況，都不會分散我的注意力。因爲我能夠做到這些，所以捕蟬纔會這樣熟練。”

孔子聽了，回頭對他的弟子說：“無論做什麼事情，只有鍥而不捨，專心致志，才能達到這樣出神人化的境界。這就是這位駝背老人告訴我們的道理。”

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, homely1 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 Cedar2: ”The first concession3 has lost all. If we has not a sacrificed our humble4 neighbor, we might have yet stood for ages ourselves."
