英語寓言小故事短篇

　　1：鼯鼠五會

　　In the fields, there was a small animal called "wu shu" ***the flying squirrel***.

　　It would say to everyone it met: "I have five skills: flying, walking, swimming, climbing trees, and digging holes in the ground."

　　Thereupon, its pals would laugh at it, saying: "Though you have learned these skills, you have mastered none of them."

　　"You can fly, but not high; you can swim, but not far; you can climb trees, but not to the treetop; you can dig holes in the ground, but not deep enough."

　　When the flying squirrel heard what its pals said, it ran away manger.

　　Indeed, the flying squirrel had learned five skills, but when put to use, they were useless. How could they be called real skills?

　　2:鯽魚求救

　　Zhuang Zhou's family was poor. Once, he went to the official who supervised rivers to borrow some grain. The official said: "Well, wait until the end of the year when I collect the taxes from the people, then I will lend you 300 gold pieces. All right?"

　　When Zhuang Zhou heard this, he was so angry that the colow of his face changed. But he told the official this story: When I came here yesterday, on the way I heard a voice calling 'Help!' I turned my head and saw a small crucian carp in the dried-up carriage ditch."

　　I went over and asked: "Little crucian carp, why are you calling for help?"

　　The little crucian carp answered: "I am a subject of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Unfortunately I fell down here. Can you give me a little water to save my life?"

　　I said: "All right, I am just going to the south to sell ideas to the kings of the States of Wu and Yue. I will ask them to stir up the water of the Xijiang River to welcome you. Will that do?"

　　When the crucian carp heard this, it got angry and said: "When I lose the water which is always with me, I cannot survive. Now, I want only a little bit of water so that I can survive.Yet you say such things. Then you'd better go to the salt-fish shop to look for me."

　　3:狐假虎威

　　One day, a big tiger was looking for food in a dense forest. A fox happened to scurry by, so the tiger pounced upon the fox and caught it.

　　At this time, the fox suddenly hit upon a bright idea to get itself out of the predicament. It boosted its courage and said to the tiger: "Do you dare to eat me?"

　　Taken aback, the tiger asked: "Why not?"

　　"Heaven sends me to rule over all you animals. If you eat me, you will defy the order of Heaven. What a nerve!"

　　Hoodwinked for the moment, the tiger released its claws.

　　The fox wagged its tail proudly and said: "I will take you to the other animals, and show you my power and prestige."

　　The fox and the tiger, one in front and the other in back, walked towards the depths of the forest. The fox was very cocky, shaking its head and wagging its tail. The tiger was dubious, looking around.

　　The boars, deer, gazelles, bares, etc. in the forest saw the fox come swaggering, entirelydifferent from its usual self, and couldn't understand what was the matter. But when they looked behind the fox:"Oh, a big tiger!" The wild animals, large and small, all fled for their lives.

　　Now the fox was greatly pleased and said to the tiger: "See, who isn't afraid of me?"
