　　篇1

　　Long long ago, several people had a jar of wine among them and all of them wanted to drink it by himself. So they set a rule that every one would draw a snake on the ground and the man who finished first would have the wine. One man finished his snake very soon and he was about to drink the wine when he saw the others were still busy drawing, so he decided to draw the feet to the snake. However, before he could finish the feet, another man finished and grabbed the jar from him, saying, "Who has ever seen a snake with feet?”

　　The story of "Draw a snake and add feet to It.” tells us going too far is as bad as not going far enough.

　　古時幾個人分一壺酒。他們都想獨自喝完那壺酒，所以就定了一個規矩：?a href='//' target='_blank'>咳嗽詰厴匣?惶跎擼???米羈歟?夂?憑凸樗?Ｓ幸桓鋈撕芸煬桶焉呋?昧恕Ｋ??蛩愫日夂?剖保?醇?鶉碩薊乖諉ψ嘔???a href='//' target='_blank'>決定給蛇再畫上幾隻腳。結果，他的蛇腳還沒加完，另一個人已經把蛇畫好了。那人一下把酒壺奪了過去，說：“有誰見過長腳的蛇?”。

　　這個故事告訴我們這樣的道理：做得過分和做得不夠都是不對的

　　篇2

　　In the past a family in the State of Chu made sacrificial offers to their ancestors, and after that they rewarded the people who helped in the ceremony with the pot of wine used in it.

　　There were many helpers but only one pot of wine. Who should drink it? Someone suggested: "Each person is to draw a snake on the ground. Whoever draws fastest and most lifelike will get the pot of wine."

　　Everyone thought this was a good idea.

　　One man drew very fast, finished it in the twinkling of an eye, and was given the pot of wine. At this moment, he saw that the others had not yet finished, so he wanted to flaunt his skill once more. He said proudly: "How slow you are! Let me add a few snake feet."

　　Holding the wine pot in his left hand, he began to add feet to the finished snake with his right hand. When he was just adding feet to the snake, another man finished his drawing. Hegrabbed the wine pot at once, saying: "A snake has no feet. How could you add feet to it? The first one who finished drawing a snake is I, not you."

　　Having said this, the man drank the wine with an easy conscience.

　　從前，楚國有一戶人家，祭完祖宗以後，把一壺祭祀時用過的酒，賞給幫助辦事的人喝。

　　辦事的人很多，可是酒只有一壺，到底給誰喝呢?有人提議說：“各人都在地上畫一條蛇，誰畫得快、畫得像，就把這壺酒給誰喝。”

　　大家都認為這個辦法很好。

　　有一個人畫得很快，一轉眼，就把蛇畫好了。這壺酒應該歸他。可是，這時候，他看看別人都沒有畫好，就想再炫耀一下自己的能耐。他得意洋洋地說：“你們畫得多慢啊，讓我再畫上幾隻蛇腳吧!”

　　他左手拿著酒壺，右手又開始給畫好了的蛇添上腳。當他正在添足的時候，另一個人卻把蛇畫好了，而且立刻把酒壺奪了過去，說：“蛇是沒有腳的，你怎麼畫上了腳?第一個畫好蛇的是我，不是你哩!”

　　那人說完話，就心安理得地喝起酒來。

　　篇3

　　One day, a man was going to have a drink, He wanted to have a drink with his friends. He took out a bottle of wine, “Let’s draw a snake, the person who finishes first can drink first.” “OK.”

　　After some time, the man finished drawing his snake. He looked around, everyone was still drawing. He thought he could add some feet to the snake. He began to draw them. Just then, one of his friends finished drawing his snake too,” I finished drawing my snake, so, I can drink first,

　　He picked up the bottle.

　　“Excuse me, I think I’m first.”

　　“What are doing now?” his friend asked him.

　　“I’m adding feet to my snake.”

　　“No, you are wrong. Snakes have no feet at all. Look at mine please, my snake is different from something with feet.” The friend asked the other men, “Whose snake is more life-like?”

　　“Yours.”

　　“So, I’m first, I can drink first. Ha! Ha! Ha!”

　　一個人想喝酒。他想和朋友一塊兒喝酒。於是，他拿出一瓶酒說：“我們來畫蛇，誰先畫好，誰就先喝。”“好。”

　　過了一會兒，這個人就畫好了一條蛇。他向四處看看，大家都還在畫。他想給蛇添一些腳。於是他開始給蛇畫腳。就在這個時候，有一個朋友也畫好了。這個朋友說：“我第一個畫好，所以，我可以先喝。”他拿起了酒瓶。

　　“對不起，我認為我是第一。”

　　“那現在你在做什麼?”他的朋友問。

　　“我在給蛇添上腳呀。”

　　“不，你錯了。蛇是沒有腳的。請看看我畫的蛇，我畫的蛇和帶腳的東西不一樣。”他問其他朋友，“誰畫的蛇最像?”

　　“你的。”

　　“所以，我是第一，我可以先喝酒。哈哈哈!”
