The Rat and the Elephant (English)
Total Words: 197
A Rat was traveling along the King's highway. He was a very proud Rat, considering his small size and the bad reputation all Rats have. As Mr. Rat walked along—he kept mostly to the ditch—he noticed a great commotion up the road, and soon a grand procession came in view. It was the King and his retinue.
The King rode on a huge Elephant adorned with the most gorgeous trappings. With the King in his luxurious howdah were the royal Dog and Cat. A great crowd of people followed the procession. They were so taken up with admiration of the Elephant, that the Rat was not noticed. His pride was hurt.
"What fools!" he cried. "Look at me, and you will soon forget that clumsy Elephant! Is it his great size that makes your eyes pop out? Or is it his wrinkled hide? Why, I have eyes and ears and as many legs as he! I am of just as much importance, and"—
But just then the royal Cat spied him, and the next instant, the Rat knew he was not quite so important as an Elephant.
Moral: A resemblance to the great in some things does not make us great.
老鼠和大象 (中文翻译 拼音注音)
一只老鼠正沿着国王大道行驶。他是一只非常骄傲的老鼠,考虑到他的小个子和所有老鼠的坏名声。老鼠先生一路走来——他大部分时间都在沟里——他注意到路上发生了很大的骚动,很快就出现了一个盛大的游行队伍。是国王和他的随从。
国王骑着一头巨大的大象,大象装饰着最华丽的服饰。国王在他的豪华豪宅中有皇家的狗和猫。一大群人跟着游行。他们如此崇拜大象,以至于没有注意到老鼠。他的自尊受到了伤害。
“什么蠢货!” 他哭了。 “看看我,你很快就会忘记那头笨拙的大象!是他的大尺寸让你的眼睛突出吗?还是他皱巴巴的皮?为什么,我有他的眼睛和耳朵,还有和他一样多的腿!我是同样重要,而且”——
可就在这时,国王的猫发现了他,下一刻,老鼠就知道他没有大象那么重要。
