雙語(yǔ)·《伊索寓言》 龜兔賽跑

THE HARE AND THE TORTOISE

A Hare was one day making fun of a Tortoise for being so slow upon his feet. “Wait a bit,” said the Tortoise, “I'll run a race with you, and I'll wager that I win.” “Oh, well,” replied the Hare, who was much amused at the idea, “l(fā)et's try and see;” and it was soon agreed that the fox should set a course for them, and be the judge. When the time came both started off together, but the Hare was soon so far ahead that he thought he might as well have a rest: so down he lay and fell fast asleep. Meanwhile the Tortoise kept plodding on, and in time reached the goal. At last the Hare woke up with a start, and dashed on at his fastest, but only to find that the Tortoise had already won the race.

Slow and steady wins the race.

龜兔賽跑

有一天，一只兔子嘲笑烏龜走路速度慢。“等等，”烏龜說(shuō)，“我要跟你比賽，我打賭我能贏(yíng)。”“啊，好啊！”兔子回答，他覺(jué)得這主意實(shí)在很可笑，“咱們比比看。”他們達(dá)成協(xié)議，由狐貍為他們?cè)O(shè)定比賽規(guī)則，擔(dān)任裁判。比賽開(kāi)始，龜兔兩個(gè)同時(shí)出發(fā)，但是兔子很快就領(lǐng)先了，他覺(jué)得自己可以休息一下，于是便躺在路邊睡著了。而烏龜卻一直緩緩前行，及時(shí)到達(dá)了終點(diǎn)。等到兔子猛地驚醒，以最快的速度飛奔到終點(diǎn)，卻發(fā)現(xiàn)烏龜早就贏(yíng)得了比賽。

訓(xùn)誡：穩(wěn)扎穩(wěn)打，堅(jiān)持不懈才能勝利。
