  Chapter13 The Hare And The tortoise

The hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. "I have never been beaten," he said, "when I run at full speed, no one is faster than me."

The tortoise said quietly, "I will race with you." "That is a good joke," said the hare. "I could dance around you the whole way."

The race started. The hare darted 1 almost out of sight at once. He soon stopped and lay down to have a nap.

The tortoise plodded 2 on and on. When the hare awoke from his nap, he saw the tortoise was near the finish line, and that he had lost the race.

参考译文:

龟兔赛跑

兔子向动物们夸耀他的速度,“我从来没有失败过,” 他说,“当我奔跑时,没有人比我更快。”

乌龟平静地说:“我要与你比赛。”“真是笑话,我可以边玩边和你赛跑。”兔子说。

比赛开始了,一眨眼工夫,兔子已经跑得不见了踪影,但是他觉得自己跑得快,对比赛掉以轻心,躺在路边睡着了。

乌龟慢腾腾地却持续不停地走,当兔子一觉醒来,他看到乌龟已经快到终点线了。兔子输了比赛。

寓意:骄兵必败;只有持之以恒,才能实现目标。
