The Dog And The Shadow 狗和它的影子
A DOG,crossing a bridge over a stream with a piece of flesh in his mouth,saw his own shadow in the water,and took it for that of another Dog,with a piece of meat double his own in size.He therefore let go his own,and fiercely attacked the other Dog,to get his larger piece from him.He thus lost both:that which he grasped at in the water,because it was a shadow; and his own,because the stream swept it away.
一条狗嘴里叼块肉,来到一座桥上.它看见水里有自己的影子,以为是另一条嘴里也叼着一块比自己
那块肉大一倍的狗.它忙丢下自己嘴里的那块肉,猛力地攻击水里的狗.试图去抢它的肉.结果,它两块肉都得不到.因为那只是一个影子,它自己的影子而已.真正的肉也被水冲走了.

The Nice Wedding Gift
We attended the wedding of an acquaintance's son.Because we did not know the young man or his bride,we decided to send them a practical household gift,a fire extinguisher.Apparently,the couple mass-produced their thank-you notes because we received a card saying:Thank you very much for the nice wedding gift.We look forward to using it soon.
漂亮的结婚礼物
我们参加了一个熟人的儿子的婚礼.由于我们都不认识那个年轻人和他的新娘,所以我们决定送给他们一个实用的全家礼----一个灭火器.很明显,这对新人大批量制作了他们的感谢信,因为我们收到了一张卡片,上面写着：“非常感谢您的漂亮的结婚礼物,我们期待着不久就用到它.”
