孩子和青蛙 The Boys and the Frogs

 

   SOME BOYS, playing near a pond, saw a number of Frogs in the water and began to pelt them with stones.  They killed several of them, when one of the Frogs, lifting his head out of the water, cried out:  "Pray stop, my boys:  what is sport to you, is death to us."

    幾個(gè)孩子在水潭邊玩耍，看見水中有許多青蛙，便用石頭去打他們。幾只青蛙被他們打死了。這時(shí)，一只青蛙從水中伸出頭來說：“孩子們，請(qǐng)你們不要再打了。這對(duì)于你們來說是在做游戲，而對(duì)于我們卻有性命之憂啊。”

    這是說，不要把自己的快樂建筑在別人的痛苦上。
