英语寓言小故事（一）：

A mouse once took a bite out of a bull's tail as he lay dozing。The bull jumped up in a rage and，with his head low to the ground，chased the mouse right across the yard。The mouse was too quick for him，however，and slipped easily into a hole in the wall。

The bull charged the wall furiously again and again，but although he bruised his head and chipped his horns，the mouse stayed safely inside his hole。After a time the bull gave up and sank down to rest again。

As soon as the bull was asleep，the little mouse crept to the mouth of the hole，pattered across the yard，bit the bull again -- this time on the nose -- and rushed back to safety。As the bull roared helplessly the mouse squeaked:

"It's not always the big people who e off best。Sometimes the small ones win，you know。"

老鼠和公牛

有一次，公牛躺着打盹，一只老鼠咬了他的尾巴。公牛怒气冲冲地跳起来，低着头追老鼠，一向追过院子。然而，老鼠跑得比他快多了，从容地钻到墙洞里去了。

公牛一次又一次地猛撞墙壁，尽管头撞肿了，角撞裂了，老鼠却安然待在洞里。过了一会儿，公牛不撞了，倒下歇着。

公牛刚睡着，小老鼠就爬到洞口，嗒嗒地跑过院子，又咬了公牛一口??这回咬了鼻子??又跑回安全的地方去。当公牛毫无办法地吼叫时，老鼠吱吱叫道：

"大人物并不总占上风。有时小人物也会取胜。"

Looking around, he saw a cow grazing nearby. He asked, “Aunt Cow, could you tell me if I can cross the river?” The cow told him that he could and that the river was not very deep, just knee high. The colt was crossing the river when a squirrel jumped down a tree and stopped him. The squirrel shouted, “Colt, stop! Yo u'll drown! One of my friends drowned just yesterday in the river.” Not knowing what to do, the colt went home to cult his mom. He told his mom his experience on the way. His mother said, “My child, don't always listen to others. You'd better go and try yourself. Then you'll know what to do.” Later, at the river, the squirrel stopped the colt again. “Little horse, it's too dangerous!” “No, I want to try myself”, answered the colt. Then he crossed the river carefully. On the other side of the river, the colt realized that the river was neither as shallow as the cow said nor as deep as the squirrel told him.

One morning, he tidied his clothes and hat, looked into the mirror, and asked his wife: Look, who is more handsome, Xu Gong living in the north of the city or I? His wife replied: You are far more handsome. Xu Gong is no match for you! Xu Gong of the north of the city was a well-known handsome man in the State of Qi. Zou Ji really didn't believe he was more handsome than Xu Gong. So he asked his concubine: Look, who is more handsome, Xu Gong or I?

His concubine also said: Xu Gong is no match for you! The next day, a guest came to discuss some matter with him. Zou Ji asked his guest the same question: Who is more handsome, Xu Gong or I? The guest answered positively: Xu Gong is not as handsome as you. Another day passed and Zou Ji met Xu Gong in person. He stared closely at the other for some time and carefully xxpared him with himself. He really couldn't see that he was more handsome than Xu Gong. Later, he again looked into the mirror.
