英语版伊索寓言「篇」篇一：The Fox and the Grapes

Once upon a time, a hungry fox was wandering through the forest in search of food. He had been walking for hours and was growing tired and famished. Suddenly, he spotted a beautiful vine hanging from a tree, adorned with juicy, ripe grapes.

Excited, the fox jumped up and tried to reach the grapes. However, they were too high for him to grab. Undeterred, he took a step back and made a mighty leap. Again, he failed to reach the grapes.

The fox tried several more times, each time jumping higher and higher, but the grapes continued to elude him. Finally, exhausted and disappointed, the fox gave up and walked away muttering to himself, "Those grapes are probably sour anyway."

The moral of this fable is that it is human nature to belittle what we cannot have. Just like the fox, when we are unable to achieve something, we often convince ourselves that it is not worth pursuing. Instead of acknowledging our own limitations, we find ways to justify our failure by diminishing the value of what we desire.

We must learn from the fox's mistake and not let our pride get in the way of our goals. Instead of giving up, we should persevere and find alternative ways to achieve what we want. It is important to recognize that sometimes, the things we desire may require more effort and patience than we initially anticipated. It is through perseverance and determination that we can overcome obstacles and reach our goals.

英语版伊索寓言「篇」篇二：The Ant and the Grasshopper

In a sunny meadow, a hardworking ant was busy gathering food for the winter. She tirelessly carried grains of wheat back to her underground home, preparing for the cold months ahead. Meanwhile, a carefree grasshopper hopped around, enjoying the warm weather and singing to his heart's content.

One day, the grasshopper noticed the ant working diligently and asked, "Why are you working so hard, dear ant? Come and enjoy the summer with me!"

The ant replied, "I am preparing for the winter. While you are enjoying yourself now, you will suffer when the cold comes."

The grasshopper laughed and continued to play, dismissing the ant's warning. He believed that there would always be enough food and warmth available.

However, when winter arrived, the ground froze, and food became scarce. The grasshopper, cold and hungry, went to the ant's home and begged for help.

The ant, remembering the grasshopper's carefree attitude during the summer, refused to help. "You should have prepared for the winter like I did. I cannot give you what I worked so hard to gather."

The moral of this fable is that hard work and preparation are essential for success. The ant's diligence and foresight allowed her to survive the winter comfortably, while the grasshopper's lack of preparation led to his suffering.

This fable reminds us that it is important to plan ahead and work diligently towards our goals. By taking proactive measures and being responsible, we can avoid unnecessary hardships and ensure a brighter future for ourselves.
