英汉寓言故事1：自知之明 In ancient times a man named Zou Ji, 8 chi tall and impressive looking, had served as the prime minister of the State of Qi. One morning, he tidied his clothes and hat, looked into the mirror, and asked his wife: "Look, who is more handsome, Xu Gong living in the north of the city or I" His wife replied: "You are far more handsome. Xu Gong is no match for you!" Xu Gong of the north of the city was a well-known handsome man in the State of Qi. Zou Ji really didn"t believe he was more handsome than Xu Gong. So he asked his concubine: "Look, who is more handsome, Xu Gong or I" His concubine also said: "Xu Gong is no match for you!" The next day, a guest came to discuss some matter with him. Zou Ji asked his guest the same question: "Who is more handsome, Xu Gong or I" The guest answered positively: "Xu Gong is not as handsome as you." Another day passed and Zou Ji met Xu Gong in person. He stared closely at the other for some time and carefully compared him with himself. He really couldn"t see that he was more handsome than Xu Gong. Later, he again looked into the mirror. The more he looked at himself, the more he felt he was not as handsome as Xu Gong. Zou Ji was rather restless in his mind. At night, lying on the bed, he pondered: He was not as handsome as Xu Gong, but why did these three persons say he was more handsomeIn the end, he came to understand the reason: "My wife says I am handsome because she shows favouritism to me. My concubine says I am handsome because she is afraid of me. My guest says I am handsome because he wants to curry my favour." 古代齐国有个人名叫邹忌，身高八尺，相貌堂堂，曾经做过齐国的相 国。一天早晨，他整整衣服帽子，照照镜子，问妻子：“你看，我跟住在 城北的徐公比，谁长得漂亮” 妻子回答说：“你漂亮多了。徐公哪里比得上你呢!” 城北的徐公，是齐国有名的美男子，邹忌真的不相信自己比徐公长得 漂亮。于是，又问他的妾说：“你看，我同徐公比，哪个漂亮些” 妾也说：“徐公怎么比得上你漂亮呢” 第二天，有个客人来找他，跟他商谈一件事情，邹忌又问客人说：“我 与徐公谁长得美呢” 客人肯定地回答说：“徐公不如你美。” 又过了一天，邹忌见到了徐公。他紧紧地盯着他看了一阵，又把自己 和他仔细地比较了一番，实在看不出自己比徐公漂亮。后来，再去照照镜子，越 看越觉得自己不及徐公。

邹忌心里很不平静。晚上，他躺在床上，想来想去，自己本来不及徐 公，为什么这三个人都说自己美呢最后，他终于明白了：“妻子说我漂亮，是因 为偏爱我;妾说我漂亮，是因为怕我;客人说我漂亮，是因为有意讨好我。” 英汉寓言故事2:狐狸和狮子 the second time, however, he came near the lion.

它把所有最精美食物都找出来给城里老鼠。城里老鼠说：“这东西不好吃，你的 家也不好，你为什么住在田野的地洞里呢你应该搬到城里去住，你能住上用石头 造的漂亮房子，还会吃上美味佳肴，你应该到我城里的家看看。” 乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的东西也为他们 摆好了。可是正当他们要开始吃的时候，听见很大的一阵响声，城里的老鼠叫喊 起来：“快跑!快跑!猫来了!”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。

过了一会儿，他们出来了。当他们出来时，乡下老鼠说：“我不喜欢 住在城里，我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。因为这样虽然贫穷但是快乐自在，比起虽 然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说，要好些。”
