Unit36The Dog and His Shadow
It happened that a dog had some meat that he wanted to eat at home. On his way home he met a river. As he looked down, he saw his shadow in the water.xiao84.com
"Just look!"said he to himself. "That dog down there has some meat, too. If I could get it away from him, I would really eat well tonight!"
With this thought, he made a snap at the other dog's meat. And as he did, his own meat fell into the water. So then he had nothing at all.
Then he saw that the other dog had lost his meat, too.
"That is as it should be!?thought he. "For I saw him trying to take my meat away from me."
By wanting to have everything, he has lost everything he had!
狗和他的影子
一只狗叼著肉打算回家去吃。在回家的路上他遇到一條河。他朝河里望去，看見水中自己的影子。
“看吶！”他自言自語道。“下面那條狗也銜著肉呢。如果我把他的搶走，今晚上一定可以美餐一頓了！”
這么想著，他就沖那只影子狗咬去，這時候他自己的肉掉進了水里。當然他什么也沒有得到。
然后，他看到另一只狗的肉也沒了。“活該！”他想，“因為我看到他想從我這里搶走我的肉。”
什么都想要，卻失去了原來所擁有的！
