英语幽默:Second language
A mother mouse was out for a stroll with her babies when she spotted a cat crouched behind a bush. She watched the cat, and the cat watched the mice.

Mother mouse barked fiercely, "Woof, woof, woof!" The cat was so terrified that it ran for it's life.

Mother mouse turned to her babies and said, "Now, do you understand the value of a second language?"

一只母老鼠带着孩子出来散步,突然她看见一只猫正在灌木丛中虎视耽耽。

母老鼠向着猫叫道:“汪,汪,汪”,猫听了非常害怕,拼命跑走了。

母老鼠回过头洋洋自得的对孩子说:“现在你知道外语的重要性了吧。”追问

谢谢,但有没有再长一点的呢?

一篇英语寓言,下面是全文的中英对照,可以看看:)~~
Belling the cat(系铃于猫)
Long ago, there was a big cat in the house. He caught many mice while they were stealing food.

One day the mice had a meeting to talk about the way to deal with their common enemy. Some said this, and some said that.

At last a young mouse got up, and said that he had
a good idea.
"We could tie a bell around the neck of the cat. Then when he comes near, we can hear the sound of the bell, and run away."

Everyone approved of this proposal, but an old wise mouse got up and said, "That is all very well, but who will tie the bell to the cat?" The mice looked at each other, but nobody spoke.
从前,一所房子里面有一只大猫,他抓住了很多偷东西的老鼠。

一天,老鼠在一起开会商量如何对付他们共同的敌人。会上大家各有各的主张,最后,一只小老鼠站出来说他有一个好主意。

“我们可以在猫的脖子上绑一个铃铛,那么如果他来到附近,我们听到铃声就可以马上逃跑。”

大家都赞同这个建议,这时一只聪明的老耗子站出来说:“这的确是个绝妙的主意,但是谁来给猫的脖子上绑铃铛呢?”老鼠们面面相觑,谁也没有说话。

寓意: 有些事情说起来容易,做起来却很难。

狼和鹤
  狼吃东西的时候,肉里的一小块骨头卡在喉咙里,吞不下去,很疼。
他四处奔走,想找到什么办法减轻痛苦。
  他为了让人相信说道:“如果能取出这块骨头,我付出什么都可以。”
  最后,鹤同意试试看,他让狼张大嘴,然后将长长的脖子伸进狼的喉咙。
鹤用他的尖嘴最终叼出骨头。
  鹤问:“你给我什么报酬?”
狼露出他的牙齿,说:“你应该满意啦,你能从狼嘴里平安无事地收回头来,这就是报酬。”
  这个故事告诉我们一个事实:
一个贪得无厌的人是不会因为得到你的帮助而心存感激的
