田鼠field mouse[英][fi:ld maus] [美][fild maʊs] 中英文小故事：田鼠和野牛 从前，一只田鼠外出收集过冬的野豆子，他的邻居野牛在草地上吃草。小田鼠不喜欢野牛，因为知道野牛会用他那长满刺的舌头把长得很高的草全部扫平,那样他就无处藏身了。于是他决定像个真正的男人一样向野牛挑战。 "嗬，伙计，我要和你决斗！"田鼠用微弱的声音吱吱地叫道。 野牛没在意，以为田鼠只是在开玩笑。田鼠又愤怒地重复了一遍他的挑战，但是他的对手仍在安静地吃着草。这时小田鼠轻蔑地哈哈大笑，同时向野牛发出挑衅。最终野牛看了他一眼，不以为然地说：“你最好呆着别动，小东西，否则我过去踩到你，你就会变成一摊肉饼！” “你是踩不到我的！”田鼠回答说。 "我让你呆着别动，”野牛坚持说，他有些生气了。“假如你再跟我说话，我一定会过去踩死你。” "我不怕你！"田鼠说，他要激怒野牛。 于是野牛朝着田鼠冲了过去。他笨拙地踩踏着草地，前蹄把地上的泥土都踢了起来。野牛停下来寻找田鼠，但到处都看不见他。 "我告诉过你我会踩到你，而且会把你踩成肉饼！”野牛咕囔着。 正在这时，野牛觉得右耳朵里被谁挠了一下。他用力摇着头，同时前后摆动着耳朵。但那啃咬的疼痛越来越深，他疼得都要发疯了。他前蹄扒着地，牛角把草皮都掀了起来。他疯狂地吼叫着，拼命往前跑，先是径直朝前跑，然后又转圈跑。最后他终于停了下来，站在那儿直打哆嗦。这时田鼠从他的耳朵里钻了出来，说道：“现在你知道我才是老大了吧？” “不！”野牛吼道。他又一次冲向田鼠，想把他踩在脚下。可小家伙又不见了，但是过了一会野牛觉得他钻进了另一只耳朵里。他又一次疼得发狂，在草原上四处狂奔，有时甚至腾空跃起。最后他倒在地上，躺在那儿一动不动。田鼠从他的耳朵里爬出来，骄傲地站在野牛的尸体上。 "啊！”田鼠说，‘‘我杀死了最厉害的野兽，这就向所有人证明了我才是老大！”田鼠站在野牛的尸体上，大喊他想要一把刀，好用来宰杀他的猎物。 草地的另一边，一只非常饥饿的红狐狸正在抓田鼠作早餐。他发现了一只，四脚跳起来扑了过去，但是小田鼠逃走了，令他十分沮丧。 突然他听到了远处的叫喊声：“给我一把刀！给我一把刀。” 喊声第二次传来的时候，红狐哩朝着声音传来的方向跑云。跑到第一个小山丘时，他停下来侧耳倾听，但是再没听见什么声音，正打算返回。就在这时他清清楚楚地听到了叫喊声，但是声音很细小，“给我一把刀！”红狐狸马上又出发了，他飞快地向前跑去。 渐渐地他看到了躺在地上的巨大的野牛尸体，小田鼠仍然站在尸体上。 “我想让你为我宰杀一下这头野牛，我会给你一些肉作为酬劳。”田鼠命令道。 ‘‘谢谢你，我的朋友，我很乐意为你效劳。"红狐狸彬彬有礼地回答说。 狐狸宰杀野牛的时候，田鼠坐在旁边的一个土丘上一边看一边发布着命令。“你、要把肉切成一小块一小块的。”他对狐狸说。 狐狸完成了他的工作，田鼠给他一小块肝脏作为酬劳。狐狸很快就把那一小块肝脏吞了下去，砸了几下嘴。 “请你再给我一块好吗？”狐狸非常谦恭地问。 “什么，我已经给了你很大一块！你可真贪心！”田鼠生气地叫道。"那就再给你几块血吧！”田鼠冷笑道。于是可怜的狐狸吃了血块，连草都舔了舔。他真的是太饿了。 “请你给我一块肉带回家好吗？”狐狸乞求道，“我家里有六个孩子，家里没有东西给他们吃。” "你可以把野牛的四只蹄子带走，这应该够你们所有人吃的了！” ’‘哎，哎！谢谢你，谢谢你！”狐狸说，“但是，田鼠，我还有一个妻子呢。我们一点东西都没捕到，都快饿死了。你、能不能再分点给我？” “什么？”田鼠大喝道，“我给你的报酬已经远远超出了你为我干的那点儿活。要不，你把牛头也拿走吧！” 这时，狐狸猛扑到田鼠身上，田鼠只发出了一声微弱的吱吱声，就被吃掉了。 如果你既骄傲又自私，那么到头来你会一无所有。 Once upon a time，when the Field-Mouse was out gathering wild beans for the winter, his neighbor, the Buffalo, came down to graze in the meadow. This the little Mouse did not like, for he knew that the other would mow down all the long grass with his prickly tongue, and there would be no place in which to hide. He made up his mind to offer battle like a man. “Ho，Friend Buffalo，I challenge you to a fight! “ he exclaimed in a small, squeaking voice. The Buffalo paid no attention, thinking it only a joke. The Mouse angrily repeated the challenge, and still his enemy went on quietly grazing. Then the little Mouse laughed with contempt as he offered his defiance. The Buffalo at last looked at him and replied carelessly: “You had better keep still, little one, or I shall come over there and step on you, and there will be nothing left!” “You can’t do it!” replied the Mouse. “I tell you to keep still，” insisted the Buffalo, who was getting angry. “If you speak to me again, I shall certainly come and put an end to you!” “I dare you to do it!” said the Mouse, provoking him. Thereupon the other rushed upon him. He trampled the grass clumsily and tore up the earth with his front hoofs. When he had ended, he looked for the Mouse, but he could not see him anywhere. “I told you I would step on you, and there would be nothing left!” he muttered. Just then he felt a scratching inside his right ear. He shook his head as hard as he could, and twitched his ears back and forth. The gnawing went deeper and deeper until he was half wild with the pain. He pawed with his hoofs and tore up the sod with his horns. Bellowing madly, he ran as fast as he could, first straight forward and then in circles, but at last he stopped and stood trembling. Then the Mouse jumped out of his ear, and said: “Will you know now that I am master?” “No!” bellowed the Buffalo, and again he started toward the Mouse, as if to trample him under his feet. The little fellow was nowhere to be seen, but in a minute the Buffalo felt him in the other ear. Once more he became wild with pain, and ran here and there over the prairie, at times leaping high in the air. At last he fell to the ground and lay quite still. The Mouse came out of his ear, and stood proudly upon his dead body. “Eho! ” said he, “I have killed the greatest of all beasts. This will show to all that I am master! ” Standing upon the body of the dead Buffalo, he called loudly for a knife with which to dress his game. In another part of the meadow, Red Fox, very hungry, was hunting mice for his breakfast. He saw one and jumped upon him with all four feet, but the little Mouse got away, and he was terribly disappointed. All at once he thought he heard a distant call: “Bring a knife! Bring a knife ! ” When the second call came, Red Fox started in the direction of the sound. At the first knoll he stopped and listened, but hearing nothing more, he was about to go back. Just then he heard the call plainly, but in a very thin voice, “Bring a knife!” Red Fox immediately set out again and ran as fast as he could. By and by he came upon the huge body of the Buffalo lying upon the ground. The little Mouse still stood upon the body. “I want you to dress this Buffalo for me and I will give you some of the meat.” commanded the Mouse. “Thank you, my friend, I shall be glad to do this for you.” he replied, politely. The Fox dressed the Buffalo, while the Mouse sat upon a mound near by, looking on and giving his orders. “You must cut the meat into small pieces，” he said to the Fox. When the Fox had finished his work, the Mouse paid him with a small piece of liver. He swallowed it quickly and smacked his lips. “Please，may I have another piece?” he asked quite humbly. “Why, I gave you a very large piece! How greedy you are!” exclaimed the Mouse. “You may have some of the blood clots1.’’ He sneered. So the poor Fox took the blood clots and even licked off the grass. He was really very hungry. “Please may I take home a piece of the meat?” He begged. “I have six little folks at home，and there is nothing for them to eat.” “You can take the four feet of the Buffalo. That ought to be enough for all of you!” “Hi, hi! Thank you, thank you!” said the Fox. “But, Mouse, I have a wife also, and we have had bad luck in hunting. We are almost starved. Can’t you spare me a little more?” “Why,” declared the Mouse, “I have already overpaid you for the little work you have done. However, you can take the head, too!” Thereupon the Fox jumped upon the Mouse, who gave one faint squeak and disappeared. If you are proud and selfish you will lose all in the end. 中英文例句 1.
