英語版寓言故事1:The Travellers and the Bear
Two men travelling through a forest together promised to help each other whatever danger threated them.
They had not gone far when a bear rushed at them from some bushes. One man was a good climber, and quickly climbed a nearby tree, but the other, seeing that he had no chance alone against the bear, fell flat on his back, and pretended to be dead.
The Bear came up to him, sniffed at him, and thicking him dead went off into the wood again without hurting him.
When he had gone, the other traveller came down from his tree, and smilingly asked his companion what the Bear had said to him. "For I could see," he said, " that he put his mouth close to your ear."
"He told me to tell you," replied the other,"that you were a great coward, and that in future I should not trust those who make fine promises, but will no stand by their friends in danger."
Don't trust fine promises unless you are sure of the person who makes them.
英語版寓言故事2:The overconfident mantis
A certain mantis grew extraordinarily stout(結實的) and robust. When he walked around in the backyard, brandishing(揮舞) his two powerful forelimbs. He could easily catch some smaller insects such as locusts, crickets, bugs, etc. Since he was stronger and caught more smaller insects than other mantises and caught more smaller insects than other mantises, he felt that he should be the leader of his kingdom.
His authority was one day challenged by another also very strong mantis. After a bitter fighting, he defeated his challenger, who fled toward a road outside of the backyard and swiftly disappeared. The victor chased on the road, but he could not find the loser. He vented his anger on the smaller insects, continually killed two locusts and three crickets. And all the other smaller insects were scared and immediately escaped tracklessly.
The bloodthirsty mantis stood bravely on the road by himself. The joy of victoryintoxicated(沉醉,中毒) him into thinking that he might be the most indomitable creature in the world. Soon, he heard a strange sound from a distance. It was a one-wheel wooden cart pushed by a man coming toward his direction on the way.
The mantis had never seen a wooden cart. He stood on the road brandishing his two powerful large saws without retreat. He really believed that he could frighten away the unknown monster as he had defeated his challenger.
In another minute, the wheel of wooden cart rolled over the poor, self important, ignorant mantis, crushing his without the cart drive's even knowing.
In our society, there are many 'mantises'. They think they are more superior than others. They over-estimate their own ability, because they have never seen a "wooden cart."
A Chinese proverb says, "If you think you are the strongest, there is always somebody who is stronger than you; if you think your world is the largest, there is always another world which is larger than yours."
英語版寓言故事3:Traps behind the Leaves
There is a story about a cicada(蟬) in the Chinese classic, Chuang-Tzu. Once upon a time, a male cicada joyfully joined his friends in singing the most beautiful praises of happy summer. He sang and sang, completely intoxicating himself in the comfortable, hot afternoon without noticing a great danger approaching.
A couple of inches away, behind the singer, was a huge mantis extending his two powerful saw-like forelimbs, preparing to make a sudden attack on the helpless cicada. The mantis was concentrating on how to catch the delicate cicada for his late lunch and did not realize that a hungry yellow bird was hiding under the leaves, less than half a foot behind the mantis.
The bird was sure he could capture the mantis for his early supper, but he never dreamed that amischievous boy standing under the branches was aiming at him with his hand-made bow. When the boy got the bird, he jumped up excitedly and hurt himself by a careless fall as he stepped into a big hole in front of him.
What the author of the book tried to tell us is that if you think you are smart enough to take advantage of another person, there is always somebody else who might be smarter than you, trying to take your advantage. The self-declared smartest person often becomes the victim of an unexpected accident.
There are traps behind leaves and under the branches. As long as you do not want to take advantage of someone else, you will be smart enough to defend yourself.
