狼wolf[英][wʊlf] [美][wʊlf] 中英文小故事：狼和牧养人 有个牧羊人，每天早上把绵羊群放到森林附近的一片草原上吃草。一直到傍晚，他才把羊群赶回村庄去。 这天，当牧羊人在草原上看守着羊群时，忽然来了一只狼。狼停在草原边沿，观望羊群。 牧羊人心里很担忧。他手里紧紧地握着牧羊竿，眼睛紧盯住狼。 然而，狼只是站在那里看着羊群，丝毫没有侵犯羊的意图。不久，狼离去了。 虽然如此，牧羊人还是紧紧地看守着羊群，以防 狼转回头。 第二天，第三天，第四天……狼照常来到草原， 但他只是静静地坐在那儿看羊吃草。牧羊人渐渐地放松了戒备，开始跟狼做朋友。 “狼，为什么你每天到这儿来呢？ ”牧羊人问， “既然不是来侵犯羊群，那你到来有何目的？ ” “先生，你别担忧我的存在。”狼说，“我只是一只素食动物。多年前，我就不再喜欢吃肉类了。我选择吃蔬果，因为它使我更健康。” “是真的吗？ ” “当然，要不然我会天天到这儿来却不侵犯你的羊吗？ ” “那倒是真的。” “你知道吗，我的存在可带给你方便。如果你有事要办，我可以帮你看守羊群呢！ ” “我……觉得还没有这个需要。”毕竟牧羊人还是有点担忧。 又过了好几天，狼依然没有侵犯羊群。牧羊人开始信任他了，也相信他真的是素食动物。 有一天，牧羊人要到城里去买些东西。他对狼说：“我有事想走开一阵，你能不能帮我看守羊群呢？ ” “你放心去吧，我会帮你好好看守它们的。”狼说。 牧羊人离去之后，狼即刻露出真面目。他追捕羊群，一只接一只地杀了，坐在那里尽情享受吃羊肉。 牧羊人回来后，发现大部分的羊都死了，剩下几只站在一个角落吓得直发抖。 牧羊人坐下来大哭：“唉！我真是活该啊！我怎可以托付一只狼帮我看守羊群呢？ ” 故事哲理: 人们常被伪装的和平姿态所迷惑，而放松戒备，解除了心理上的防范。所以不要轻易信任有野心的坏人。面对敌人，一刻也放松不得。 The Wolf and the Shepherd There was once a shepherd who looked after his flock of sheep in a meadow every day. One day, he saw a wolf stopping at the edge of the meadow and staring at the sheep. The shepherd was of course very worried. He held on to his staff as he watched the wolf. However, the wolf did not try to chase after any of his sheep. Day after day, he came and rested on the ground, just quietly looking at the sheep. As days passed, the shepherd got used to seeing the wolf there. He became less worried about the wolf. One day the wolf even followed him as he took his flock to another meadow. Feeling now that the wolf was quite harmless, he said to the wolf, “Why do you come here every day? You don’t seem interested in the sheep at all•，’ The wolf said, “You don’t have to worry about me. I don’t even eat meat any more. I’m a vegetarian now, and I feel healthier.” “Is that true?” asked the shepherd, surprised. “You have seen it for yourself. Otherwise, how could I come here every day and not attack your sheep?” The shepherd nodded his head，and the wolf continued, “In fact, you can safely let me take care of your sheep for you when you are not around.，， The shepherd was not sure of that. But in the following days, the wolf kept coming to sit among the sheep and the shepherd grew to trust him. One day, when the shepherd had to go to the town to buy something, he said to the wolf，“Please help me to look after the sheep while I’m away. I trust that you will not harm any of them.” “Of course you can trust me,” said the wolf. “I’ll take good care of them.” As soon as the shepherd was at a safe distance, the wolf pounced on the sheep. He killed and ate as many as he could. When the shepherd returned, he found most of his flock dead and a few sheep huddled together, shivering and bleating in fear. Shocked and angry, he shouted at the wolf, “How could you do this to me? I thought you were my friend!” The wolf laughed as he ran off, saying, “You stupid shepherd, when has a wolf and a shepherd ever been friends?” Do not be easily taken in by a sudden change in some people. 中英文例句 1.
