英文童话故事1
阿佩莱斯和小毛驴
Apelles meeting with the little ass1 invited him to tea that very right. The little ass was trembling with delight. He prances2 through the wood; he pesters3 all who pass: 'Apelles bores me so. He will not let me be, you know! Whenever him I see, he asks me in to tea. I'm sure he wants to paint a Pegasus from me.'
'Oh no!' Apelles said as he happened to be near, 'I am painting the judgment4 of King Midas. I'm acquainting with you because you seem to boast the proper length of ear. So if you'll come to tea, most happy I shall be. For long-eared asses5 are not rare, but with the ears that you can show, no little or big ass either ever could compare!'
Consumed with vanity, the fool admires himself for that which others ridicule6, and often makes a boast of that which ought to shame him most.
阿佩莱斯遇到一只小小的毛驴,当晚就请它去喝茶。这小驴子高兴得全身颤抖,它在森林里高视阔步,和所有路过的人唠唠叨叨地说:“阿佩莱斯烦死我了,你知道,他死缠着我不放,不论什么时候遇到她,他总是叫我去喝茶,我想他一定是要按我的模样画一匹天上的飞马呢。”
“不,哪有那么回事!”阿佩莱斯说道(他正好在旁边),“我画的是国王米达斯的审判,我认识你,是因为你似乎在吹嘘你的耳朵长度合适。所以如果你来喝茶,我高兴之至。长耳朵的驴子并不稀奇,可是你生的那副耳朵,无论大小驴子都不能和你相比!”
蠢才妄自尊大。他自鸣得意,恰恰是受人嘲笑奚落的短处,而且常常把应该引以为奇耻大辱的事情大吹大擂。

In the past, there was a man named Ai Zi who was fond of sailing on the sea.
One night, Ai Zi had his boat moored1 near a small island Around midnight, he seemed to hear someone weeping or talking under the water. So he listened intently, and soon he heard someone say: "Yesterday the Dragon King issued an order that all living creatures with tails in water are to be beheaded. I am an alligator2 and have a tail. I am very frightened of being slaughtered3, so I am crying. You are a toad4 and don't have a tail. What are you weeping for?"
After a while, Ai Zi seemed to hear someone answer: "Though I have no tail now, I am afraid that I may be traced back to the time when I was a tadpole5 with a tail then, so I am weeping."
从前,有个叫艾子的人,喜欢在海上航行。
一天晚上,船停泊在一个小岛的附近。大约半夜时分,他仿佛听到水底下有人发出哭泣的声音,又好像有人在说话。于是,他认认真真地听了下去。一会儿,他听到有人说:“昨天龙王下了命令,水中的动物,凡是有尾巴的都必须斩首。我是鳄,有尾巴,非常害怕遭到杀戮,所以哭了起来。你是蛤蟆,又没有尾巴,哭什么呀?”
一会儿,他仿佛又听到有人回答说:“我现在虽然没有尾巴,但是我害怕会追究到我蝌蚪年代的事情上去,因为那时候我是有尾巴的,所以哭泣。”

吹笛子的渔夫
A fisherman who could play the flute1 went down one day to the sea-shore with his nets and his lute2; and, taking his stand on a projecting rock; began to play a tune3, thinking that the music would bring the fish jumping out of the sea. He went on playing for some time, but not a fish appeared: so at last he threw down his flute and cast his net into the sea, and made a great haul of fish. When they were landed and he saw them leaping about on the shore, he cried, "You rascals4! You wouldn't dance when I piped: but now I’ve stopped, you can do noting else!"
