　　环球托业带来少儿英语口语小故事：The wind and the sun 风和太阳

　　The wind and the sun

　　The wind and the sun were disputing who was the stronger.

　　Suddenly they saw a traveler coming down the road. The sun said, "Whoever can make the traveler take off his coat will be the stronger."

　　So the sun hid behind a cloud, and the wind began to blow as hard as it could. As the wind blew harder, the traveler wrapped his coat more closely around himself.

　　Then the sun came out. He shone on the traveler. The traveler soon felt quite hot, and took off his coat.

　　风和太阳

　　●风和太阳两方为谁的能量大相互争论不休。

　　●突然，他们看到一个行人走在路上，太阳说：“谁能使行人脱下衣服，谁就更强大。”

　　●太阳藏在乌云后面，风开始拼命地吹，风刮得越猛烈，行人越是裹紧自己的衣服。

　　●太阳出来了，暖暖地晒着行人，行人感到很热，很快就把外套脱了下来。

　　寓意: 劝说往往比强迫更为有效。

　　一、The Wise Servant故事

　　How fortunate is the master, and how well all goes in his house, when he has a wise servant who listens to his orders and does not obey them, but prefers following his own wisdom.

　　A clever John of this kind was once sent out by his master to seek a lost cow. He stayed away a long time, and the master thought, "Faithful John does not spare any pains over his work!"

　　As, however, he did not come back at all, the master was afraid lest some misfortune1 had befallen him, and set out himself to look for him. He had to search a long time, but at last he perceived the boy who was running up and down a large field.

　　"Now, dear John," said the master when he had got up to him, "hast thou found the cow which I sent thee to seek?" "No, master," he answered, "I have not found the cow, but then I have not looked for it."

　　"Then what hast thou looked for, John?" "Something better, and that luckily I have found." "What is that, John?" "Three blackbirds," answered the boy. "And where are they?" asked the master. "I see one of them, I hear the other, and I am running after the third," answered the wise boy.

　　Take example by this, do not trouble yourselves about your masters or their orders, but rather do what comes into your head and pleases you, and then you will act just as wisely as prudent2（谨慎的） John.

　　二、The archer and the lion故事

　　An Archer1 went up into the hills to get some sport with his bow, and all the animals fled at the sight of him with the exception of the Lion, who stayed behind and challenged him to fight. But he shot an arrow at the Lion and hit him, and said, "There, you see what my messenger can do: just you wait a moment and I'll tackle you myself.' The Lion, however, when he felt the sting of the arrow, ran away as fast as his legs could carry him.

　　A fox, who had seen it all happen, said to the Lion, "Come, don't be a coward: why don't you stay and show fight?" But he Lion replied, "You won't get me to stay, not you: why, when he sends a messenger like that before him, he must himself be a terrible fellow to deal with."
