短篇英语童话小故事 野兔和青蛙

The hares once gathered together and lamented1 the unhappiness of their lot, exposed as they were to dangers on all sides and lacking the strength and the courage to hold their own.

Men, dogs, birds and beasts of prey2 were all their enemies, and killed and devoured3them daily: and sooner than endure such persecution4 any longer, they one and alldetermined5 to end their miserable6 lives. Thus resolved and desperate, they rushed in a body towards a neighbouring pool, intending to drown themselves.

On the bank were sitting a number of frogs, who, when they heard the noise of the hares as they ran, with one accord leaped into the water and hid themselves in the depths.

Then one of the older hares who was wiser than the rest cried out to his companions, "Stop, my friends, take heart; don't let us destroy ourselves after all: see, here are creatures who are afraid of us, and who must, therefore, be still more timid than ourselves."

有一群青蛙正围坐在池塘边，听到兔子们那急促的跑步声后，青蛙们立即纷纷跳入水中。

兔子中，有一只年长的兔子比同伴们聪明一些：“朋友们，快停下来，我们应该振作起来，不要再自寻短见了!你们看，这里还有一些害怕我们的动物呢，他们肯定比我们更胆小。”
