The Ass and the Grasshopperan
Ass having heard some Grasshoppers chirping, was highly enchanted; and, desiring to possess the same charms of melody, demanded what sort of food they lived on, to give them such beautiful voices。 They replied, "The dew。" The Ass resolved that he would only live upon dew, and in a short time died of hunger。

2.英語小故事簡短集錦 篇二
A singing-bird was confined1 in a cage which hung outside a window, and had a way of singing at night when all other birds were asleep. One night a bat came and clung2 to the bars of the cage, and asked the bird why she was silent by day and sang only at night. "I have a very good reason for doing so," said the bird: "it was once when I was singing in the daytime that a fowler was attracted by my voice, and set his nets for me and caught me. Since then I have never sung except by night." But the bat replied, "It is no use your doing that now when you are a prisoner. If only you had done so before you were caught, you might still have been free."

一只畫眉鳥被囚禁在窗外掛著的一個籠子里,當(dāng)其他鳥兒都酣睡時,她卻在夜里唱歌。有一個夜晚,蝙蝠飛過來,抓住鳥籠的.柵欄,問她為什么白天默默無聲,卻在夜里放聲歌唱。小鳥回答說:“我這樣做是有道理的,曾經(jīng)有一次,當(dāng)我在白天唱歌時,一個捕鳥人被我的歌聲吸引,就用鳥籠子捉住了我。從此我只在夜里歌唱?!笨墒牵饏s說:“你現(xiàn)在這樣做根本沒用了,因為你已經(jīng)成為階下囚。若是在被捉住之前這樣做就好了,那樣或許你依然是自由之身!”
待事情發(fā)生之后再預(yù)防,為時已晚。
