烏龜與鷹 The Tortoise and the Eagle
A TORTOISE, lazily basking in the sun, complained to the sea-birds of her hard fate, that no one would teach her to fly. An Eagle, hovering near, heard her lamentation and demanded what reward she would give him if he would take her aloft and float her in the air. "I will give you," she said, "all the riches of the Red Sea ." "I will teach you to fly then," said the Eagle; and taking her up in his talons he carried her almost to the clouds suddenly he let her go, and she fell on a lofty mountain, dashing her shell to pieces . The Tortoise exclaimed in the moment of death: "I have deserved my present fate; for what had I to do with wings and clouds, who can with difficulty move about on the earth?'
If men had all they wished, they would be often ruined.
烏龜看見鷹在空中飛翔，便請求鷹教他飛行。鷹勸告他，說他不能飛行?？蔀觚斣偃龖?求，鷹便抓住他，飛到高空，然后將他松開。烏龜落在巖石上，被摔得粉身碎骨。
這故事說明，那些好高鶩遠(yuǎn)，不切實(shí)際的人必將失敗。
