He gathered a bundle of sticks and asked each of his sons to try and break it. Despite their efforts, none of them succeeded. Then, the old man untied the bundle and gave each stick to his sons. As they tried to break the sticks individually, they found it effortless. The old man explained that unity was their strength, just like the bundle of sticks.2. The Clever Monkey (聪明的猴子)Once upon a time, in a forest, there was a clever monkey who loved playing tricks. One day, he found a beehive filled with delicious honey. Instead of eating it all, the monkey decided to trick the other animals. He called them together and said that a treasure was buried beneath the beehive. As the animals dug furiously, the monkey enjoyed the honey all by himself. The animals learned the importance of caution and not being easily deceived.3. The Tortoise and the Hare (乌龟和兔子)In a forest, a tortoise and a hare lived. The hare was always boasting about his speed, so the tortoise challenged him to a race. The harelaughed, thinking victory was certain. He took a nap during the race, assuming he would easily win. Meanwhile, the tortoise continued at a slow and steady pace. When the hare woke up, he found the tortoise had already crossed the finish line. The tortoise taught the hare that perseverance and consistency are essential to success.4. The Greedy Farmer (贪婪的农夫)Once, there was a farmer who had a magic goose that laid golden eggs. The farmer became greedy and wanted to get all the golden eggs quickly.

The farmer lost the goose that laid the golden eggs, teaching him the lesson that greed leads to loss.5. The Fox and the Grapes (狐狸和葡萄)A hungry fox spotted a ripe bunch of grapes hanging from a vine. The fox tried to reach them but couldn't. He kept trying until tired. Finally, he gave up and said, "Those grapes must be sour and not worth eating."

The Ant and the Grasshopper (蚂蚁和蝗虫)In a field, an ant worked hard to collect food for the winter. Meanwhile, a grasshopper played all day long. When winter arrived,the ant had enough food to survive, while the grasshopper had none.

The Fisherman and the Golden Fish (渔夫和金鱼)A fisherman caught a golden fish that turned out to be a magical creature. The fish pleaded to be released in return for granting any wish.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf (撒谎的男孩)A mischievous boy lived in a village and often lied about a wolf threatening the flock.

The story teaches that even the smallest of creatures can be of great help.These Chinese fables showcase important morals and life lessons that have been passed down through generations.。

He snatched the wine cup and drank up the wine saying: “It is I who first finished drawing the snake.What you have drawn is not a snake.A snake doesn't have feet.”杞人忧天In the Spring and Autumn Period, in the State of Qi, there was a man who always let his imagination run away with him. One day he even worried that the sky would fall on his head. He was so worried that he could neither eat nor sleep. Later, someone persuaded him that his fears were ground-less. This idiom satirizes those who worry unnecessarily.东施效颦In the Spring and Autumn Period (春秋时期,770-476 BC), there was a beauty in the State of Yue called Xishi. She often suffered from pains in her chest, and so she would often walk around doubled over and with her brows knitted. There was an ugly girl in the village called Dongshi who envied Xishi. Striving to emulate Xishi, she imitated her stoop, knitting her brows at the same time. She thought that this made her elegant, but in fact, it only made her more ugly. Later, this idiom came to be used to indicate improper imitation that produces the reverse effect.草木皆兵In AD 383, the king of Former Qin (秦朝), Fu Jian (fújiān 苻坚), led a huge army to attack Eastern Jin. After losing the first round of fighting, Fu Jian looked down from a city wall, and was terrified when he saw the formidable battle array of the Eastern Jin army. And then looking at the mountains around, he mistook the grass and trees for enemy soldiers. As a result,when the nervous Fu Jian led his army into battle, it suffered a crushing defeat. This idiom describes how one can defeat oneself by imaging difficulties.塞翁失马Near China's northern borders lived a man well versed in the practices of Taoism. His horse, for no reason at all, got into the territory of the northern tribes. Everyone commiserated with him."Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.After a few months, his animal came back, leading a fine horse from the north. Everyone congratulated him."Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a cause of misfortune," said his father.Since he was well-off and kept good horses, his son became fond of riding and eventually broke his thigh bone falling from a horse. Everyone commiserated with him."Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.One year later, the northern tribes started a big invasion of the border regions. All able-bodied young men took up arms and fought against the invaders, and as a result, around the border nine out of ten men died. This man's son did not join in the fighting because he was crippled and so both the boy and his father survived.欢迎您的下载,资料仅供参考!致力为企业和个人提供合同协议,策划案计划书,学习资料等等打造全网一站式需求。

The Power of Persistence: The Turtle and theHare RaceIn the ancient Chinese village of Yangzi, there lived a wise old man named Laozi. One sunny afternoon, he sat beneath a shady oak tree, watching the world go by. Suddenly, a hare bounded by, looking arrogant and proud.The hare stopped to rest and saw Laozi sitting there calmly. "Old man," the hare said with a sneer, "I challenge you to a race. I bet I can reach the other end of this field before you can even finish your pipe of tobacco."Laozi smiled and shook his head. "You are very fast, hare, but I am old and slow. You would win easily."The hare laughed. "Then why don't you accept the challenge?"Laozi sighed. "Very well, hare. We will race. But first, let's find a judge."The hare agreed, and soon they found an honest farmerto oversee the race. The farmer marked the starting lineand the finish line, and Laozi took a deep breath, lit his pipe, and prepared to race.The hare, eager to win, bounded off at a great speed, leaving Laozi far behind. But as the hare ran, he saw a carrot patch and couldn't resist the temptation. He stopped to nibble on a juicy carrot, thinking, "I'll just rest for a moment. Laozi is so slow, he'll never catch up."Meanwhile, Laozi puffed on his pipe, taking his time, step by step, moving forward. He didn't rush, he didn't panic. He simply walked steadily, enjoying the scenery and the journey.Hours passed, and finally, the hare finished his carrot and realized he had wasted too much time. He quickly resumed his race, only to find Laozi calmly waiting for him at the finish line, pipe still in hand.The farmer declared Laozi the winner, and the hare, ashamed and defeated, slunk away. Laozi turned to the farmer and said, "You see, farmer, it is not always the fastest who wins. Sometimes, it is the one who is patient and persistent."And so, the lesson of the Turtle and the Hare race was taught, reminding us that speed is not always the key tosuccess. Persistence and patience, combined with a steady pace, can often lead to greater achievements.**坚持的力量:龟兔赛跑**在古老的杨子村,住着一个名叫老子的智者。

He believed that the mountain was blocking his way and causing inconvenience for the entire village. Determined to find a solution, he decided to dig a hole through the mountain.Day after day, the old man tirelessly dug, with little progress to show for his efforts. People passing by criticized him, saying it was a futile endeavor. However, the old man remained determined, believing that he could move the mountain.Years went by, and the old man's son grew up. He often wondered why his father wasted his energy on such an impossible task. One day, he mustered the courage to question his father's actions. "Father, why do you keep digging? The mountain is massive, and you are getting older. It seems like an impossible task."The old man smiled and replied, "My son, I know that I might not live to see the mountain move.

She often suffered from pains in her chest, and so she would often walk around doubled over and with her brows knitted. There was an ugly girl in the village called Dongshi who envied Xishi. Striving to emulate Xishi, she imitated her stoop, knitting her brows at the same time. She thought that this made her elegant, but in fact, it only made her more ugly. Later, this idiom came to be used to indicate improper imitation that produces the reverse effect.
