小鼹鼠和妈妈The Mole and His Mother
A MOLE, a creature blind from birth, once said to his Mother: "I am sure than I can see, Mother!" In the desire to prove to him his mistake, his Mother placed before him a few grains of frankincense, and asked, "What is it?' The young Mole said, "It is a pebble." His Mother exclaimed: "My son, I am afraid that you are not only blind, but that you have lost your sense of smell.
参考译文：小鼹鼠和妈妈
传说鼹鼠的眼睛是瞎的，可小鼹鼠却对妈妈说他能看得见。妈想试验他一下，便拿来一 小块香喷喷的食物，放在他面前，并问他是什么。他说是一颗小石头。母亲说：“啊，不幸 的孩子，你不但眼睛看不见，连鼻子也没用了。” 这故事是说，那些爱吹牛说大话的人，常常夸海口能做大事，却在一些微不足道的事情 上暴露了本质。
双语格林童话：狼和人
Once upon a time the fox was talking to the wolf about the strength of man, how no animal could withstand him, and how all were obliged to employ cunning in order to protect themselves from him.
The wolf answered, "If I could see a man just once, I would attack him nonetheless."
"I can help you to do that," said the fox. "Come to me early tomorrow morning, and I will show you one."
The wolf arrived on time, and the fox took him out to the path which the huntsman used every day. First an old discharged soldier came by.
"Is that a man?" asked the wolf.
从前有只狐狸向狼谈起人的力量，说没有动物能抵挡得了，所以他认为所有动物都必须施展计谋才能保护自己。可狼回答说：“假如我有机会碰到一个人，我就扑上去让他无法抵挡。”狐狸说：“我可以帮你碰到人啊。明早你早点来我家，我把他指给你看。”
第二天，狼很早就来了，狐狸带它来到猎人每天的必经之路。
他们碰到的第一个人是个退役老兵，狼问：“那是个人吗？”
The Latecomers Surpass the Old-timers（后来居上）
Ji An lived at the time of Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D.24). He was respected for being upright and just and for daring to speak the truth. He did not bother about small matters in personal behavior and in being an official. He was particular about actual effects and, although he did not cause a stir, he could keep the prefecture he governed in perfect order. Because of this， the imperial court transferred him to the central government from being the perfect of the Donghai Prefecture to being a commander in charge of the appointment and dismissal of the local officials.

A glass of water's life
Indian Chiefs, said: God give each person a glass of water, you drink from the inside into the life.
Living really is a cup of water, cups or the gorgeous display of a person rich and poor, but the glass of water, crystal clear, colorless and tasteless, to any person are the same. You can add sugar, can also add salt, or even add a little bit of poison, as long as you can bear.
Sugar, salt, add anything else, this is your life.
Pure water, in pottery from life into the cup sloly, this is the beginning of your life.
Riga to the cup of water, in moderation, because of the limited capacity of the cup.
Mingle when you want to savor slowly, water-ray, and the cup on the empty.
一杯水的生活
印地安酋长说：上帝给了每个人一杯水，你从里面饮入生活。
生活确实就是一杯白开水，杯子的华丽与否显示了一个人的贫与富，但杯子里的水，清澈透明，无色无味，对任何人都一样。你可以加入糖，也可以加入盐，甚至可以加一点点毒药，只要你能承受。
加糖、加盐、加别的什么，这就是你生活的权利。
纯净的水，缓缓地从生命的陶罐里注入杯子，这是你生活的开始。
往杯子里加水，适可而止，因为杯子的容量有限。
啜饮的时候，你要慢慢体味，水喝光了，杯子就空了.
Belling the cat(系铃于猫)
Long ago, there was a big cat in the house. He caught many mice while they were stealing food.
One day the mice had a meeting to talk about the way to deal with their common enemy. Some said this, and some said that.
At last a young mouse got up, and said that he had
a good idea.
"We could tie a bell around the neck of the cat. Then when he comes near, we can hear the sound of the bell, and run away."
Everyone approved of this proposal, but an old wise mouse got up and said, "That is all very well, but who will tie the bell to the cat?" The mice looked at each other, but nobody spoke.
从前，一所房子里面有一只大猫，他抓住了很多偷东西的老鼠。
一天，老鼠在一起开会商量如何对付他们共同的敌人。会上大家各有各的主张，最后，一只小老鼠站出来说他有一个好主意。
“我们可以在猫的脖子上绑一个铃铛，那么如果他来到附近，我们听到铃声就可以马上逃跑。”
大家都赞同这个建议，这时一只聪明的老耗子站出来说：“这的确是个绝妙的主意，但是谁来给猫的脖子上绑铃铛呢？”老鼠们面面相觑，谁也没有说话。

"Yes, " the farmer looked at him strangely and said, "you are in your
car, sir."
