下面本站小編爲大家帶來三個經典寓言故事，歡迎大家閱讀!

　經典寓言故事：冷杉和荊棘

A fir-tree was boasting to a bramble, and said, somewhat contemptuously, "You poor creature, you are of no use whatever. Now, look at me: I am useful for all sorts of things, particularly when men build houses; they can't do without me then." But the bramble replied, "Ah, that's all very well: but you wait till they come with axes and saws to cut you down, and then you'll wish you were a Bramble and not a fir."

Better poverty without a care than wealth with its many obligations.

一棵冷杉樹用輕蔑的口吻對着荊棘誇口道：”你這個可憐的東西，一點用處也沒有，你看看我，我可是對萬物都有益處，尤其是當人類要蓋房子的時候，沒有我根本就不行。”但是，荊棘回答：“是啊!那確是很好，不過，等他們拿着斧頭把你砍到時候，你就會希望自己是荊棘，而不是冷杉樹了。”

寧可貧窮而無人問津，也不要富貴而責任纏身。

經典寓言故事：盲人與小野獸

There was once a blind man who had so fine a sense of touch that, when any animal was put into his hands, he could tell what it was merely by the feel of it. One day the cub of a wolf was put into his hands, and he was asked what it was. He felt it for some time, and then said, "Indeed, I am not sure whether it is a wolf's cub or a fox's: but this I know -- it would never do to trust it in a sheepfold."

Evil tendencies are early shown.

從前，有一個人眼睛雖然瞎了，可是他精於嗅覺，只要用手摸一摸，憑藉着觸感就便能說出這是什麼動物。有一天，一隻小狼崽被送到他的手中，請他告知這是什麼東西。他用手摸了一會兒，然後說：“我不太確定，這到底是一隻小狼崽，還是一隻狐狸的幼崽，但是有一點我十分確定，千萬別讓它進羊圈。”

惡劣的本性從小便知。

經典寓言故事：兩條咒語

There was once a boy in a village. When ever he asked people to do things, no one would listen to him. He was sad. So he asked a wizard to solve the problem by using magic. The old wizard tried a lot of spells, but didn't work.

A young man heard about the problem. He went to the boy and said that he knew the solution. He gave the boy two small pieces of paper.

"These are two spells, my boy. Use the first before you ask others to do something, and use the second when they have done it. A smile is also necessary, "the young man said.

The boy was happy and tried to use the spells. When he asked people to do something, he said "Please" before his words, and "Thank you" after they had done it. People were very surprised that the boy could be polite. Soon, they became happy to do what the boy asked them to do.

The wizard was surprised, and asked the young man about the spells.

"It's not magic. When I was a child, my teacher told me that with good manners you could get anything you want. And he was right. The boy only needed good manners to get what he wanted."

從前村莊有一個男孩，當他請人幫他做事情的時候，沒有人會聽他的，他很傷心，所以他請巫師用魔法解決問題。老巫師嘗試了很多的辦法，但都沒有成功。

一個年輕人聽說了這件事情。他就去了那個小男孩那裏並且告訴他應該怎樣解決這個問題。他給了這個男孩兩個小紙條。

“這是兩個咒語，我的孩子。第一個呢在請別人做事前使用，第二個呢，在他們做完了後使用。還有微笑是必不可少的”年輕人說。

男孩很非常開心的用了這兩個咒語。當他想人們做什麼事情之前，他先說“請”，當人們做完的時候他說：“謝謝你”，人們都很驚奇這個男孩變得如此有禮貌。不久，他們都很樂意爲這個男孩子做事。

這個巫師感到很驚訝，問這個年輕人關於咒語的事情。

“這不是咒語。當我還是個孩子的時候，我的老師告訴我，良好的舉止你可以得到任何你想要的，老師是正確的，這個男孩只有以禮待人才能得到同等的回報。”
