狐狸在我们的心中一向是“狡猾”的,乌鸦是我们日常故事中经常提到动物之一,而今天的寓言故事就是围绕这两个动物进行的,主要讲述的是狐狸想吃乌鸦嘴里的肉,它该用什么方法呢?
好了,快来看看狡猾的狐狸是怎么做的:
One day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy with the meat in his mouth.
有一天,一只乌鸦站在窝旁的树枝上嘴里叼着一片肉,心里非常高兴。
At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so he swallowed and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat.
这时候,一只狐狸看见了乌鸦,馋得直流口水,非常想得到那片肉。
However, whatever the fox said to the crow, the crow just kept silent.
但是,无论狐狸说什么,乌鸦就是不理睬狐狸。
Until the fox thought highly of the crow’s beautiful voice, the crow felt flattered and opened his mouth to sing.
最后,狐狸赞美乌鸦的嗓音最优美,并要求乌鸦唱几句让他欣赏欣赏。乌鸦听了狐狸赞美的话,得意极了,就唱起歌来。
As soon as the meat fell down to the ground, the fox took the meat and went into his hole.
没想到,肉一掉下来,狐狸就叼起肉,钻回了洞
