　　幼兒英語故事篇一

　　Lu Yu lived in the Kingdom of Wei during the Three Kingdoms periods. He was orphaned at the age of ten.

　　三國時代，魏國有個叫盧毓Lú Yù 的人，很小的時候就失去了父母和兩個哥哥。

　　So he undertook the task of supporting his sister-in-law and nephew through a period of extreme hardship.Meanwhile, he also studied hard. He was praised all around for his noble deeds and depth of knowledge.

　　盧毓從此辛苦工作，除了照顧哥哥們的家人外，自己還努力讀書，受到大家的讚許。

　　Later he became an official and still worked hard and put forth valuable advice to the emperor, so the emperor placed great trust in him.

　　後來，盧毓做了官，仍然勤懇工作，經常給皇帝提出好建議，得到皇帝的信任。

　　At that time, the selection process of government officials depended on the recommendation of powerful and influential men.

　　那時候，朝廷選拔官吏，一般都是由有名望的人推薦，而推薦的人，一般又只在有名望的人裡考慮。

　　These men would always recommend famous persons who were all mouth and no action which displeased the emperor.

　　其實，好多有名望的人只是嘴上能說，並不會幹實際的事，因此，皇帝很不滿。

　　One time, the emperor asked Lu Yu to recommend an official and said to him: "the selection of government officials should not rely solely on one's fame which is just like a cake drawn on the ground, while it may be good to look at it does not satisfy one's hunger."

　　有一天，皇帝準備選拔一個有才能的人，並要盧毓推薦，還說選擇人才不能光找有名聲的人，名聲只不過是畫出來的一張餅，只能看，不能吃的。

　　This story gave rise to the idiom "draw a cake to satisfy hunger. " Now it is used to describe someone who uses fantasy to satisfy oneself and means that empty reputation is of no practical value.

　　後來，人們就用這個成語比喻自己安慰自己，不能解決實際問題的方法。

　　Chunyu Kun 淳于髡 lived in the state of Qi 齊國 during the Warring States Period 戰國,475-221 BC.He was wise, humorous and eloquent. He skillfully advised the king on many occasions and successfully went to many states as an envoy.

　　戰國時期，齊國有個叫淳于髡的人。他幽默機智，能說會道，給齊威王出過許多好主意，並且成功出使了許多其他的國家。

　　In the year 349 BC, the State of Chu 楚國 dispatched a large force to attack Qi.

　　公元349年，楚國派出大批軍隊攻打齊國。

　　The king of Qi sent Chunyu Kun to the state of Zhao 趙國 to ask for help, with a lot of valuable gifts.

　　齊王派淳于髡去趙國尋求幫助，於是他帶著許多貴重的禮品去了趙國。

　　The king of Zhao accpeted the gifts gladly and sent a hundred thousand troops to help Qi.

　　趙王見了禮物十分高興，派了十萬士兵去援助齊國。

　　The king of Chu withdrew his army that very night as soon as he got the news.

　　那天晚上，楚王得到這訊息，馬上撤回了自己的軍隊。

　　The king of Qi was released and pleased with Chunyu Kun. He set a banquet for celebration.

　　齊威王鬆了一口氣，十分滿意淳于髡的表現，並決定設宴為他慶功。

　　During the meal, the king asked Chunyu Kun, "How much wine can you drink before you're drunk, Sir?"

　　在宴會上，齊威王問淳于髡：“先生你喝多少酒會醉?”

　　Knowing the king had a bad habit of drinking all night, Chunyu Kun decided to take this chance to admonish the king. So he replied, "I get drunk when I drink ten litres or hundred."

　　他幽默地回答說：“我有時喝一升酒就會醉，有時喝一百升酒才會醉。”

　　Puzzled, the king asked, "Since you are drunk after ten litres, how can you finish another ninty litres?"

　　齊威王聽了很奇怪。他問：“你喝一升已經醉了，怎麼還會有喝一百升的道理呢?”

　　Chunyu Kun then explained that he could drink different amounts of wine under differentconditions. He said, "This occurs to me that when you drink to your limit, you get so drunk that you lose your sense; once joy reaches its height, then it's sorrow's turn. This is the rule for everything. Whatever you do, you are bound to end up in the opposite direction when youexceed the limits."

　　淳于髡就告訴齊王，在不同的情況下他的酒量是不一樣的。他說：“喝酒讓我想到一句古話：人喝酒到了自己的極限，爛醉之後就沒了理智，一旦開心過了頭，就會發生悲慘的事。所有的事情都是這個道理。不論你做什麼，超過了限度，往往就會適得其反。”

　　Realizing Chunyu Kun was advising him, the king answered, "You are right. I will take your advice."

　　齊威王知道淳于髡在勸誡他，回答說：“你說得對，我會接受你的建議的。”

　　From then on, the king of Qi gave up his bad habit of drinking and playing all night.

　　從那以後，齊威王改掉了整晚飲酒作樂的壞習慣。
