小学生成语英语故事：杀猪教子

Killing the Pig to Educate the Son

Zeng Zi was one of Confucius' disciples.

曾子是孔子的一个学生。

One day, Zeng Zi's wife wanted to go to market. Their son wanted to go together with her. He made a row, crying and fussing without stop. His wife could do nothing but bend down to humour him, saying:

有一天，曾子的妻子要上街。儿子吵着要跟妈妈一起去，又哭又闹，吵个不停。妻子没有办法，只好弯腰哄他，说:

"My darling, go home now. Mama will be back soon. When I'm back, I'll kill the pig to make a meal for you."

“我的小宝贝，回家去吧!妈妈去了就回来，一回来就杀猪给你吃。”

When the son heard this, he went home happily.

儿子听了，高高兴兴地回家去了。

Not long after, the wife returned home from the market. Zeng Zi tied up their fat pig, took out a shining sharp knife and prepared to kill it. When his wife saw this, she hurriedly held Zeng Zi by the hand and said:

过了不久，妻子从街上回到了家。曾子就把家里的肥猪捆住，拿出雪亮的尖刀，准备杀猪。妻子看见了就急忙拉住曾子的手，说:

"What's the matter with you? I was only trying to humour the child."

“你这是怎么了?我只不过是哄哄小孩的。”

Zeng Zi said seriously:

曾子严肃地说:

"How can you cheat a child? The child is still small and doesn't understand things. He only follows the example of his parents. Now you cheat him, then he will follow your example and cheat others. Furthermore, when a mother cheats her child, the child will no longer trust his mother. Then, how can you educate the child well?"

“你怎么能够哄骗孩子呢?现在，孩子还小，不懂事，他只会照着父母的样子去做。你现在哄骗孩子，孩子就会学你的样子，去哄骗别人。做母亲的哄骗儿子，做儿子的就不会再信任母亲。这样，怎么能教育好孩子呢?”

Having said this, Zeng Zi raised his knife and killed the fat pig.

曾子话一说完，就一刀宰了肥猪。

小学生成语英语故事：画鬼最易

Drawing Ghosts Is Easiest

One day, a guest was making drawings for the King of the State of Qi.

一天，有位客人为齐王作画。

The King of Qi asked him:

齐王问他:

"What do you think is the most difficult thing to draw?"

“你认为画什么东西最难?”

The guest answered:

客人回答说:

"Dogs and horses are the most difficult to draw."

“画狗、画马最难了。”

"Then what is the easiest thing to draw?" the King of Qi asked again.

“那么，画什么东西最容易呢?”齐王又问道。

"Ghosts are the easiest to draw," the guest answered. "People are familiar with dogs and horses, which they see every day, so dogs and horses are the most difficult to draw. As to ghosts, no one has ever seen them, so one can draw them any way one likes. Therefore, ghosts are the easiest to draw."

客人回答说: “画鬼最容易。因为狗、马人人都知道，天天都看见，所以最难画。至于鬼呢，谁也没有见过，想怎么画就怎么画，所以最容易画。”

小学生成语英语故事：买犊还珠

Buying the Case but Returning the Pearl

In the past, a man of the State of Chu intended to go to the State of Zheng to sell pearls.

从前，有个楚国人准备到郑国卖珍珠。

First he used rare lily magnolia to make a small exquisite case which he fumigated with the delicate fragrance of osmanthuses and Chinese prickly ashes. Furthermore, the case was inlaid with emerald-green jadeite, and adorned with attractive rosy jade. The whole case was decorated in an extremely exquisite way.

他先用名贵的木兰做了一只精巧的小匣子，又用幽香的牡桂和花椒把匣子熏了一下，并且在匣子上面镶了碧绿的翡翠，还嵌上引人注目的玫瑰石，整个匣子装演得十分考究。

A man of the State of Zheng saw this exquisite case and liked it very much. He bought it with a great deal of money, but he returned the pearl in the case to the man of Chu.

有个郑国人看到这只精美的匣子，非常喜欢，就用重金买了下来。但是，他却把匣子里的珍珠退还给了那个楚国人。

Later, people ridiculed the man of Chu by saying that he was good at selling cases, but not good at selling pearls.

后来，人们都嘲笑这个楚国人，说他很善于卖匣子，却不善于卖珍珠。

To go too far in the pursuit of form just like letting a presumptuous guest usurp the host's role, which brings about opposite results.

过分追求形式，反而会喧宾夺主，效果适得其反。
