Once, the King of the State of Wu wanted to invade the State of Chu.
The King of Wu warned his ministers: "If anyone should dare to dissuade1 me from invading Chu again, I will put him to death."
One young hanger-on of his wanted to dissuade him but didn't dare. He carried a slingshot, and for three consecutive2 days paced up and down in the King's back garden. The dew wetted his clothes all through.
One day, the King of Wu called him: "The dew has wetted your clothes to such a state. Why should you bear such hardship?"
The young man replied: "There is a cicada on a tree in this garden. The cicada is high above,chirping3 leisurely4 and taking in the dew freely, not knowing that a mantis5 is right behind it. The mantis, pressing its body close in a concealed6 place, is intent oncatching7 the cicada, not knowing that a siskin is hiding right behind it. The siskin is stretching out its neck to peck at the mantis, not knowing that a man carrying a slingshot is under it. These three small creatures make every effort only to get the benefit before them but ignore entirely8 the disaster behind."
Having heard the young man's words, the King of Wu suddenly saw the light and said: "What you said is right!"
Consequently, the King of Wu dropped his plan to invade the State of Chu.
一次，吴王要进攻楚国。
吴王警告他的大臣们说：“有谁再敢来劝阻我进攻楚国，我就处死他。”
吴王的门客中有一个年青人，想去劝阻但又不敢。他怀里揣着弹弓，一连三个早晨在吴工的后花园里徘徊，露水湿透了他的衣服。
一天，吴王叫住他：“露水把你的衣服湿成这个样子，你何必吃这个苦呢?”
年青人回答说：“这个园子里，有一棵树，树上有一只蝉。蝉高高在上，悠闲地叫着，自由自在地吸着露水，却不知道有一只蝗螂在它身后呢!蝗螂把身子紧紧地贴在隐蔽的地方，只想去捕蝉，却不知道有一只黄雀早已躲在它的身后呢!黄雀正伸长了脖子想去啄蝗螂，却不知道在它下面正有人拿着弹弓呢!这三只小生物，只是力求得到它们眼前的利益，却全不管它们身后隐伏着祸患啊!”
吴王听了年青人的话后，恍然大悟说：“你说得好啊!”
于是，吴王就不再进攻楚国了。
学前教育英语故事：苹果A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust.
He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river."
He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them.
Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.
一个人正朝着一个富人的房子走去，当他沿着路走时，在路的一边他发现一箱好苹果，他说：“我不打算吃那些苹果，因为富人会给我更多的食物，他会给我很好吃的东西。”然后他拿起苹果，一把扔到土里去。
他继续走，来到河边，河涨水了，因此，他到不了河对岸，他等了一会儿，然后他说：“今天我去不了富人家了，因为我不能渡过河。”
他开始回家，那天他没有吃东西。他就开始去找吃的，他找到苹果，很高兴地把它们从尘土中翻出来吃了。
不要把好东西扔掉，换个时候你会觉得它们大有用处。
学前教育英语故事：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 positively1: "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 handsome?In 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 curry2 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。”
