       　"Humph! Do you think we don't know your tricks? We'll never be taken in!"

       　?哼!你们以为我们不知道吗?我们决不上你们的当!?

       　So they called one another, turned round and left.

       　于是，互相招呼，回头就走。

       　But they had already smelled the aroma of the wine, and couldn't bear to part with it. Even after they left, they would turn their heads to look back. When they saw no one there, they would turn back; and after they turned back, they were afraid of being deceived, and left again. After much hesitation, they finally said to themselves:

       　但是，它们已经闻到了酒香，总有点恋恋不舍，就是走了，也要回过头来望望。回头望不见人，便又转过来;转过来了又怕上当，再返身回去。犹豫了好久，它们最后自言自语地说:

       　"Just for a taste of the wine. It won't matter as long as we don't get drunk."

       　?去尝尝味道，不喝醉就不碍事。?

       　Shortly afterwards, they agreed to come back to drink the wine. When they got drunk, they forgot everything. Every gorilla put on the straw sandals and imitated the way man walks.

       　不一会儿，大家同意了，都回来喝酒。等到喝醉的时候，它们一切都忘记了，一个个穿上草鞋，学着人走路。

       　As a result, they fell down one after another and were all caught alive by people.

       　结果，一个个都跌倒了，统统被人活捉。

       英语成语故事-井底之蛙

       He you not heard of the frog that lived in a shallow well? It said to a turtle that lived in the East Sea, "I am so hy! When I go out, I jump about on the railing beside the mouth of the well. When I come home, I rest in the holes on the broken wall of the well. If I jump into the water, it comes up to my armpits and holds up my cheeks. If I walk in the mud, it covers up my feet. I look around at the wriggly worms, crabs and tadpoles, and none of them can compare with me. Moreover, I am lord of this trough of water and I stand up tall in this shallow well. My hiness is full. My dear sir, why don't you come often and look around my place?"

       Before the turtle from the East Sea could get its left foot in the well, its right knee got stuck. It hesitated and retreated. The turtle told the frog about the East Sea.

       "Even a distance of a thousand li cannot give you an idea of the sea's width; even a height of a thousand ren cannot give you an idea of its depth. In the time of King Yu of the Xia dynasty, there were floods nine years out of ten, but the waters in the sea did not increase. ln the time of King Tang of the Shang dynasty there were droughts seven years out of eight, but the waters in the sea did not decrease. The sea does not change along with the passage of time and its level does not rise or fall according to the amount of rain that falls. The greatest hiness is to live in the East Sea."

       After listening to these words, the frog of the shallow well was shocked into realization of his own insignificance and became very ill at ease.

He always had the troops under his commandat heart,and whenever gifts were bestowed to him by the imperial ,he distributed the gifts to his officers and men. When marching, he endured the torments of hunger and thirst as the soldiers did when food and water were in short supply.

        成语寓言故事:Playing the Lute to a Cow对牛弹琴

       Gong Mingyi was a famous musician in ancient times, who played the lute very well.

       公明仪是古代一位很有名的音乐家，弹得一手好琴。

       

       One day, while playing the lute indoors, Gong Mingyi saw a cow eating grass leisurely outside the window. He had a sudden whim to play some melodies for the cow. He first played the "Exercise of Qing Jiao", but the cow still kept on eating grass with head lowered. He seemed to realize that the melody was too highbrow for the cow to understand.

       有一天，他在室内弹琴，看见一头牛在窗外悠闲地吃著草。他忽然想弹几曲给牛听听。他先弹了一曲“清角之操”。可是，牛还是跟刚才一样，只顾低着头吃草。他似乎意识到，这支曲子太高雅了，牛没有听懂。

       So he played several other melodies, imitating the buzzing sounds of swarms of flying mosquitoes, and the bleats of a calf looking for its panions. At this, to his surprise, the cow stopped eating grass, but raised its head, pricked up its ears, wagged its tail and, pacing up and down in *** all steps, began to listen attentively.

       于是，他弹了另外几支曲子，模拟蚊子成群结队飞来飞去的嗡嗡声;模拟小牛犊寻找伙伴的眸眸叫唤声。这样一来，这头牛竟然不吃草了，抬起头，竖着耳朵，甩著尾巴，迈著小步，留心地倾听起来。

        成语寓言故事:The Gentleman on the Beam梁上君子

       One year in the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a serious famine in I-Jenan.

       东汉时的某一年，河南一带，饥荒严重。

       One night, a thief sneaked into Chen Shi's house and hid himself on the beam. When Chen Shi was aware of this, he got out of bed without haste, called his children and grandchildren to his room and said in a stern voice:

       一天夜里，一个小偷潜人陈宴家，躲藏在屋子的横梁上。陈宴觉察到后，不慌不忙地起了床，把儿女子孙们都叫到屋里，严厉地说:

       "One must always restrain and encourage oneself no matter under what circumstances. Bad men were not born bad. It is only bee they don't restrain themselves that they develop bad habits and turn bad gradually. That gentleman on the beam is just a case in point."

       “一个人无论在什么情况下，都要克制自己，勉励自己。坏人，不是天生就坏，而是因为平时不克制自己而养成了坏的习惯，才慢慢地变坏的。那位梁上君子就是这样。”

       Much ashamed upon hearing this, the thief hiding on the beam promptly jumped down to the ground, kowtowed and begged for forgiveness.

       躲在梁上的小偷听了，很惭愧，连忙翻身落地，磕头求饶。

       Chen Shi enlightened him by saying:

       陈宴开导他说:

       "Judging from your earance, you don't look like a bad man. Perhaps you are driven by poverty to steal. But you should carefully examine yourself and turn over a new leaf."

       “看你的样子并不像坏人，你这样做，恐怕也是被贫困逼出来的。不过你应当好好反省，改邪归正。”

       Then he immediately asked someone to bring two bolts of white silk to give the thief as a present. The thief kowtowed and thanked him repeatedly.

       接着，他马上叫人拿来两匹白绢赠送给小偷。小偷不停地磕头致谢。

       Since then, very few thefts occurred in this locality.

       从此以后，这个地方很少发生偷盗的事情。

成语寓言故事:Cutting the Fabric to Admonish the Hu *** and断织诫夫

       A long time ago, in Henan there was a young man named Le whose family was very poor.

       从前，河南有个青年，名叫乐羊子，家里很穷。

       One day, Le Yangzi picked up a piece of gold on the road. He hily took it home and ge it to his wife. His wife said in all seriousness:

       有一天，乐羊子在路上拾到一块金子，高高兴兴地拿回家，交给妻子。妻子却一本正经地说:

       "I heard that men with aspiration do not drink from the Dao ***meaning steal in Chinese*** Spring, and honest men do not take handout food. Furthermore, picked-up money and things will stain one's moral character."

       “我听说，有志气的人不喝盗泉之水，廉洁的人不吃磋来之食;何况，这拾来的钱物，会玷污一个人的品德!”

       Hearing this, Yangzi was very ashamed of himself. So he threw the piece of gold away in the open field.

       乐羊子听了妻子的话，心里感到非常惭愧，就把金子扔到野外去了。

       This incident touched Le Yangzi deeply. He made up his mind to lee home and go to a faraway place to study under a master.

       这件事，对乐羊子的触动很大。他下了决心，离家去很远的地方，拜老师学习。

       One year later, Le Yangzi returned home. His wife inquired why he returned so soon. Le Yangzi *** iled and said:

       一年以后，乐羊子回到家里。妻子询问丈夫为什么这么快就回来了。乐羊子笑着说:

       "There is no other reason except that I, being all alone away from home, miss you so much that I e back."

       “没有别的原因，只是一个人在外面太想念你了，所以就回来了。”

       His wife turned pale at his words. She took up a knife, ran to the silk loom, put the knife on the silk fabric woven from natural silk, and said to Le Yangzi in an agitated tone:

       妻子一听，脸色变得刷白。她顺手拿起一把刀，奔到丝织机前，把刀放在蚕丝织成的绸面上，激动地对乐羊子说:

       "I reeled silk strand by strand from cocoons and, with the shuttle moving to and fro, weed it inch by inch into this bolt of silk fabric. Now if I should cut the fabric with the knife, all the previous efforts and time I've devoted would be wasted. While studying, you should always remind yourself that there is yet much more to learn. Only in this way can you cultivate a noble moral character. If you give up halfway, it will be just like cutting up this silk fabric at one stroke."

       “这丝绸，是我从蚕茧缴成丝线，一丝一缕，一梭子来，一梭子去，一寸一寸地织，才织成这一匹的啊!现在，我使一刀割断这匹丝绸，岂不前功尽弃，白白地浪费了时间吗?你呀，读书求知识，也应该随时提醒自己学得还很不够，这样才能养成高尚的品德。如果你半途而废，那么跟一刀割断这匹丝绸又有什么两样呢!”

       Deeply moved by his wife's words, Le Yangzi bid farewell to her at once, went to the faraway place, and made determined efforts to study hard. He had been away from home for a good seven years, and finally succeeded in his studies.

       听了妻子的这番话，乐羊子深深地感动了。他马上告别了妻子，去远方发愤攻读，整整七年没有回家，最后终于学成功了。

       　Duke Pingyuan of Zhao planned to ask the ruler of the State of Chu personally for assistance.He wanted to select a capable man to go with him. 赵国的平原君打算亲自到楚国去请救兵，想挑选一个精明能干的人一同前去。

       　This idiom means to recommend oneself.“毛遂自荐”这个成语用来比喻自己推荐自己，不必别人介绍。

       　文化链接

       　英文中“毛遂自荐”可以说成“volunteer to do sth”，“volunteer”既可以作名词，也可以作动词，作名词时的意思是“志愿者”，作动词就可以解释为“志愿去做什么事”，就是“毛遂自荐”啦~

       　我们来一起看几个例句吧~

       　Our company volunteered to support and help the victims. 我们的公司毛遂自荐来帮助受灾灾民。

       　You can volunteer to work one or multiple shifts。你可以毛遂自荐做单班制，也可以选择多班制。

少儿英语成语故事:自相矛盾

       自相矛盾

       A man of the state of Chu (chǔ guó 楚国) had a spear and a shield for sale.

       楚国有个卖兵器的人，在市场上卖矛和盾。

       He was loud in praises of his shield."My shield is so strong that nothing can pierce it through."

       为了让人家愿意买他的货，他先举起盾向人们夸口道：“你们看，我的盾是世上最坚固的盾，任何锋利的东西都不能刺穿它。”

       He also sang praises of his spear."My spear is so strong that it can pierce through anything."

       接着又举起他的矛，向人吹嘘说：“你们再看看我的矛，它锋利无比，无坚不摧，无论多么坚硬的盾，都挡不住它，一刺就穿!”

       "What would hen," he was asked, "if your spear is used to pierce your shield?"

       人群中有人问道：“如果用你的矛去刺你的盾，结果怎么样?”

       It is impossible for an impenetrable shield to coexist with a spear that finds nothing impenetrable.

       这世界上一样无坚不摧的东西永远不会与一样什么都能摧毁的东西共存。

       A man of the state of Chu had a spear and a shield for sale. He was loud in praises of his shield.

       　“My shield is so strong that nothing can pierce it through.”He also sang praises of his spear.“My spear is so strong that it can pierce through anything.”“What would hen，” he was asked， “if your spear is used to pierce your shield？”It is impossible for an impenetrable shield to coexist with a spear that finds nothing impenetrable.

       　这个成语出自《韩非子·难一》。

       　古时候，矛和盾都是作战用的武器。矛用来刺杀敌人，盾则用来保护身体，以免被对方的矛刺中。

       　传说很久以前，楚国有个卖兵器的人，在市场上卖矛和盾。为了让人家愿意买他的货，他先举起盾向人们夸口道：“你们看，我的盾是世上最坚固的盾，任何锋利的东西都不能刺穿它。”接着又举起他的矛，向人吹嘘说：“你们再看看我的矛，它锋利无比，无坚不摧，无论多么坚硬的盾，都挡不住它，一刺就穿！”

       　围观的人听了他的话都觉得很好笑，人群中有人问道：“依你的说法，你的矛无论怎样坚硬的盾都能刺穿，而你的盾又是无论多么锋利的矛也不能把它刺穿。那就拿你的矛来刺你的盾吧，看看结果怎么样？”

       　卖兵器的人听了张口结舌，无从回答，只好拿着矛和盾走了。

       　“自相矛盾”就是由这个故事演变而来的。现在人们用它来比喻做事、说话前后自相抵触。
