肚子和它的器官
In former days, when all a man's limbs did not work together as amicably as they do now, buteach had a will and way of its own, the members generally began to find fault with the belly forspending an idle luxurious life, while they were wholly occupied in laboring for its support, andministering to its wants and pleasure; so they entered into a conspiracy to cut off its suppliesfor the future;
以前,人的四肢并不是像现在这样友好地合作。它们有各自的意志和行事方式。人体的其他器官指责肚子过着悠闲、奢侈的生活,而它们则为它终日忙碌着,给它吃给它喝,让它快乐。后来,它们密谋要切断对肚子的供应。
The hands were no longer to carry food to the mouth, nor the mouth to receive the food, northe teeth to chew it.
手不再把食物送到嘴里,嘴不再接受东西,牙齿也不再咀嚼了。
They had not long persisted in this course of starving the belly into subjection, ere they allbegan, one by one, to fail and flag, and the whole body to pine away.
它们本想让肚子挨饿,从而使它屈服,可是,没过多久它们就坚持不住了。它们个个感到疲倦乏力,整个身体也消瘦下来了。
Then the members were convinced that the belly also, cumbersome and useless as it seemed,had an important function of its own; that they could no more do without it than it could dowithout them; and that if they would have the constitution of the body in a healthy state, theymust work together, each in his proper sphere, for the common good of all.
此时,这些器官才明白,肚子虽然看似笨拙、无用,实际上却有其重要的作用;它们离不开肚子,而肚子也同样离不开它们;如果想让身体保持健康,它们就得为了共同的利益精诚合作,各司其职。

一丝不苟的州长
A Governor visiting a state prison was implored by a convict to pardon him.
州长在视察一所州管监狱时,有个罪犯哀求州长宽恕他。
“What are you in for?”asked the Governor.
“你犯了什么事?”州长问道。
“I held a high office,”the convict humbly replied,“and sold subordinate appointments.”
“我曾经是个高级官员,”犯人低声下气地回答,“因为向下级卖官。”
“Then I decline to interfere,”said the Governor, with asperity,“a man who abuses his office bymaking it serve a private end and purvey a personal advantage is unfit to be free. By the way,Mr. Warden,”he added to the official beside him, as the convict slunk away,“in appointing youto this position, I was given to understand that your friends could make the Shikane countydelegation to the next State convention solid for the present administration. Was I rightlyinformed?”
“那样的话,我绝不会管你的事情,”州长严厉地说,“为达到个人目的、牟取私利而滥用职权的人不应该得到自由。顺便说一下,监狱长,”当那个罪犯偷偷溜走时,他接着对身旁的那位官员说,“我在任命你担任这个职务时,得知你的朋友能让西科恩县参加下届州会议的代表团支持本届政府。我得到的消息准确吗?”
“You were, sir.”
“是的,州长先生。”
“Very well, then, I will bid you good-bye. Please be so good as to appoint my nephew Chaplain.''
“那么,很好,我该向你道别了。请别忘记任命我的侄子为牧师啊。”

真正的勇气
A father was worried about his son, who was sixteen years old but had no courage at all. Sothe father decided to call on a Buddhist monk to train his boy.
一位父亲很为儿子担心,虽然儿子已经16岁了,却一点儿勇气都没有。于是,父亲决定去拜访一位禅师,请他训练自己的儿子。
The Buddhist monk said to the boy's father,“You should leave your son alone here. I'll makehim into a real man within three months. However, you can't come to see him during thisperiod.”
禅师对男孩的父亲说:“你应该把你儿子单独留在这里。不出三个月,我会让他成为一个真正的男子汉。不过,在这段时间,你不能来看他。”
Three months later, the boy's father returned. The Buddhist monk arranged a boxing matchbetween the boy and an experienced boxer.
三个月后,男孩的父亲又来见禅师。禅师安排这个男孩和一位经验丰富的拳师进行拳术比赛。
Each time the fighter struck the boy, he fell down, but at once the boy stood up; and each timea punch knocked him down, the boy stood up again. Several times later, the Buddhist monkasked,“What do you think of your child?”
拳师每次一出手,男孩都被击倒在地上,但男孩又马上站起来;每次被击倒,他就又站起来。几个回合后,禅师问道:“你认为你的孩子怎么样?”
“What a shame!”the boy's father said,“I never thought he would be so easily knocked down. Ineedn't have him left here any longer.”
“真丢人!”男孩的父亲说,“我根本没想到他是这样的不堪一击。我不让他再留在这里了。”
“I'm sorry that that's all you see. Don't you see that each time he falls down; he stands upagain instead of crying? That's the kind of courage you wanted him to have.”
“很遗憾,你只看到了这一点。难道你没看到他每次倒下后是重新站起来,而不是哭泣吗?这才是你想要他拥有的那种勇气。”
