The mice looked at each other, but nobody spoke. 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。
1、T h e T h i r s t y P i g e o n 口渴的鸽子 A PIGEON, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard. Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly. Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders. Zeal should not outrun discretion. 有只鸽子口渴得很难受，看见画板上画着一个水瓶，以为是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飞过去，不料一头碰撞在画板上，折断了翅膀，摔在地上，被人轻易地捉住了。 这是说，有些人想急于得到所需的东西，一时冲动，草率从事，就会身遭不幸。
2、The Raven and the Swan 乌鸦和天鹅 A RAVEN saw a Swan and desired to secure for himself the same beautiful plumage. Supposing that the Swan's splendid white color arose from his washing in the water in which he swam, the Raven left the altars in the neighborhood where he picked up his living, and took up residence in the lakes and pools. But cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished. Change of habit cannot alter Nature. 乌鸦非常羡慕天鹅洁白的羽毛。他猜想天鹅一定是经常洗澡，羽毛才变得如此洁白无瑕。于是，他毅然离开了他赖以生存的祭坛，来到江湖边。他天天洗刷自己的羽毛，不但一点都没洗白，反而因缺少食物饥饿而死。 这故事是说，人的本性不会随着生活方式的改变而改变。

The Power of Compliment The following story is excerpted from "The Fine Art of Small Talk". Prior to my wedding, I had a conversation with my good friend Karen about all the arrangements. I told her that for a period of time, I had been seeing two men----Ben and Steve. She invited me to tell her about both of them. I said, "Ben has a great sense of hunmor. He's the life of the party. He dresses like a million bucks and has taken me on wonderful trips. We've been to Hilton Head, Europe, and had a bunch of weekend mountain getways. He's a great golfer and an all-around wonderful guy." Karen could hardly contain herself, she was so excited. She said: " He sounds like a dream. I'm so happy that you're marrying him." " I'm not," I replied, "I'm marrying Steve." Karen was speechless. Finally, she collected herself and said, " Well Debra, Ben sounds like a prince. Why are you marrying Steve?" " Beacuse he makes me feel so special because of all the wonderful things he says about me. And you know what? He means every of them." The power in a sincere compliment is enormous. There is nothing that makes people feel more special than to have their finer traits noted and appreciated. END
