那时狗衔着的肉。

结果两头都落了空. Thinking it was another dog with another piece of meat, dropped into the water and was never seen more, on his way home he had to cross a plank lying across a running brook. As he crossed, but as he opened his mouth the piece of meat fell out选自伊索寓言 The Dog and the Shadow（狗和影子） It happened that a Dog had got a piece of meat and was carrying it home in his mouth to eat it in peace. Now, he made up his mind to have that also，因为他想要抓取在水中的那一块，以为是另一只狗，而原来的那一块，只不过是一个影子。 Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow. So he made a snap at the shadow in the water，走过一条河上面的桥，狠狠地扑向那只狗. 一只狗嘴里衔着一块肉，也被水冲走了，比他自己的还要大一倍，看见他自己在水里的影子， he looked down and saw his own shadow reflected in the water beneath。

The Big Leap Two frogs fell into a deep pit, and though they tried very hard they could not hop out. Their comrades peered down from the top and croaked in sympathy.“We feel for you,” they shouted, “ but there's no way you can get out from there!”On hearing this, one of the frogs lost heart, and died of fear. The other frog was deaf. He thought his comrades were shouting encouragement. Emboldened by their faith in him, he gathered up all his reserves of energy in one great jump that landed him out of the pit.------------------------------------------------Donkey who didn't help A dog and a donkey were going to the market with their master. It was a very long walk across a mountainous path. At noon, the master ate the little food he had brought along, unloaded the donkey, and settled down under a tree for a nap. The donkey began to eat the grass growing there, but there was nothing for the dog to eat.“There are some loaves among the load you were carrying,” said the dog to the donkey. “Let's take one and share it between ourselves.”“Wait till the master gets up!” said the donkey, tersely. “He'll feed you then.”Just then a ravenous wolf came into view.“Help me, help me, dog!” pleaded the donkey, quavering in fear.“I'm so hungry I don't have the strength to do anything,” replied the dog. “Wait till the master gets up. He'll certainly help you.”--------------------------------------------The Boastful Crow A flock of geese flew down to a beach where a solitary crow was hopping around. The crow watched them with disdain."How gracelessly you fly!" he said to the swans. "All you know is how to flap your wings. Can you glide? Can you somersault in the air? No, that's beyond you. Let's have a flying competition. I'll show you what flying really is!"One of the swans, a young, sturdy male, took up the challenge, whereupon the crow flew up and began to display his flying prowess. He flew in circles, swooped down like an arrow, and performed a variety of acrobatics in the air. Then he flew down, cawing triumphantly.Now it was the swan's turn. He launched himself into the air and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all sorts of derisive comments about his manner of flying. On and on they flew till finally the land was lost to sight. Water stretched endlessly on all sides. The crow's comments became less and less frequent and finally, stopped altogether. He had begun to tire. Eventually he became so tired that he found it hard to stay in the air. He had to struggle to keep from falling into the water.The swan, pretending to be unaware of his plight, said, "Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another flying manoeuvre?""No," squawked the crow, the fight completely gone out of him. "I'm in trouble。

a curse on my boasting! If you do not come to my aid, I'll drown。"The swan had pity on him and taking him on his shoulders flew back to the shore.。

Plug one's ears while stealing a bell（掩耳盗铃）完整的英语，后面有中文意思：）~

In the Spring and Autumn period, a thief had stolen a bell and intended to carry it away on his back, but the bell was too bulky and heavy to be carried, so he tried to break it into pieces with a hammer to make it easier for carrying. On his first hit, however, the bell made a loud noise. He thus feared that the ringing sound might be heard by someone, who would come to rob him of his bell. His fright made him plug his own ears, while hitting the bell with the hammer. The bell sound was, nevertheless, audible to others and therefore to stuff his ears for the purpose of stealing a bell was a stupid action it is as foolish as burying one's head in the sand.

from Huai Nanzi（淮南子著）

掩耳盗铃

在春秋战国时期，有一个小偷偷了一只钟。他准备把钟扛在背上带走。可是钟又大又沉，很难扛走。因此他想用锤子把钟敲成碎片，这样运起来就能多了。可是，他敲了一下，那只钟发出巨大的响声。他怕别人听到了钟声会来抢他的钟，于是他在锤子敲钟时捂上了自己的耳朵。不过，即使他这样做，别人还是听得到钟声的。所以掩耳盗铃是非常愚蠢的行为，就像把头埋在沙子中一样。

（淮南子著）

Once upon a time an old man and woman lived in the mountains. Everyday the old man went to the mountain and collected firewood, while the old woman went to the river and did the laundry. One day, she was doing the washing when a big peach came floating down the river towards her. As it was a big and juicy-looking fruit, she thought that her husband would be glad to eat it so she took it home. When the old man came back for lunch and saw the nice peach, he was really happy. The old woman cut the big peach open with a knife. What a surprise! A lovely little boy was in the peach. The old man and woman had no children so they were really grateful the gods had sent them a boy in this peach. Since he was born in a peach, they decided to call him Momotaro which means "peach-boy". The old woman cooked a meal for the little boy who ate as much as he could; the more he ate, the more he grew. Soon he became a tall and strong boy. No matter how tall or strong he was, Momotaro was a lazy boy. Day after day, all he did was sleep and eat. In the village the other boys went to the mountain and picked firewood while Momotaro was the only one doing nothing. This worried the old man and the old woman, so they asked the other boys to try to make Momotaro go and work with them. The boys then invited him, "Momotaro, would you come with us? We're going to collect firewood." But he answered, "I haven't a basket, so I can't go with you" and went back to sleep. The following day, they invited him again, "Momotaro, would you come with us? We're going to collect firewood." And he answered them, "I haven't any sandals, so I can't go with you" and went back to sleep. Upon hearing this, the old woman got angry with Momotaro for being so lazy, so the next day he went to collect firewood with the other boys. While the boys were working and collecting firewood, Momotaro took a nap. When the work was finished, the boys decided to go back to the village. Just then, Momotaro awoke and said to them, "I'll collect firewood and come back with you." They retorted, "If you start working now, we'll get back too late." Momotaro turned a deaf ear to them and went to a very big tree. Holding it by the middle, he uprooted it. Astonishing! All the boys could not believe their eyes! Thus the tall and strong Momotaro carried the big tree, while the other boys carried bundles of firewood back to the village. The old man and the old woman were amazed when they saw Momotaro carrying this very big tree as if it was a mere bundle of firewood. The county lord happened to hear about this and wished to meet Momotaro. The next day Momotaro went to see the county lord. The lord said to him, "Ogres have been threatening and robbing my peasants for a long time. If you are as strong as I heard, you shall go and punish them." Momotaro then agreed to go to the Island of Ogres. For his journey, the old man and woman baked some millet cookies and gave them to Momotaro. Away he went and on his way he met a dog. "Momotaro, where are you going?" asked the dog. "To the Island of Ogres, to punish them." "And what are you bringing with you?" "The best millet cookies of Japan." "Can I have one and go with you?" offered the dog. Momotaro gave the dog a cookie and they went along together. Soon they met a monkey. "Momotaro, where are you going?" asked the monkey. "To the Island of Ogres, to punish them." "And what are you bringing with you?" "The best millet cookies of Japan." "Can I have one and go with you?" offered the monkey. Momotaro gave the monkey a cookie and the three of them went along together. Then they met a pheasant. "Momotaro, where are you going?" asked the pheasant. "To the Island of Ogres, to punish them." "And what are you bringing with you?" "The best millet cookies of Japan." "Can I have one and go with you?" offered the pheasant. So Momotaro gave the pheasant a cookie too. Momotaro, the dog, the monkey and the pheasant went together to the Island of Ogres by boat. They were sailing but could not see the island, so the pheasant went up in the sky. He found the island and guided the boat. Soon they landed on the Island of Ogres. There on the island was a great big castle with a huge door. It was tightly closed, but the monkey jumped easily inside and opened the huge door. Momotaro entered and said to the ogres, who were having a feast, "My name is Momotaro, and I came to punish you." The ogres laughed at him, but the dog ran in and bit them as Momotaro fought using his sword. 。

The Dog And The Shadow 狗和它的影子 A DOG, crossing a bridge over a stream with a piece of flesh in his mouth, saw his own shadow in the water, and took it for that of another Dog, with a piece of meat double his own in size. He therefore let go his own, and fiercely attacked the other Dog, to get his larger piece from him. He thus lost both: that which he grasped at in the water, because it was a shadow; and his own, because the stream swept it away. 一条狗嘴里叼块肉，来到一座桥上.它看见水里有自己的影子， 以为是另一条嘴里也叼着一块比自己那块肉大一倍的狗.它忙丢下自己嘴里的那块肉，猛力地攻击水里的狗.试图去抢它的肉.结果，它两块肉都得不到. 因为那只是一个影子，它自己的影子而已.真正的肉已被水冲走了.
