中国经典寓言故事：杨布打狗
Yang Zhu had a younger brother named Yang Bu.
杨朱有个弟弟叫杨布。
One day, Yang Bu went to the market in a white suit. On his way it suddenly rained, and he got wet all over. He took off his white suit, went to a friend's home to borrow a black suit and went home in it.
有一天，杨布穿了一套白颜色的衣服上街去。路上，天忽然下雨，杨布全身淋湿了。他脱下这套白色的外衣，到一个朋友家里借了一套黑颜色的衣服，穿着回家。
The minute Yang Bu approached the gate of his house, the big dog he reared couldn't recognize him as its own master. Taking him for a stranger, it pounced upon him at once, opening its mouth, showing its teeth, and barking furiously.
杨布刚走到家门口，那条他养的大狗，竟一时认不出他就是自己的主人，还以为是个陌生人，立即扑了上去，毗牙咧嘴，汪汪乱叫。
This made Yang Bu lose his temper. He cursed:
这下子，杨布发火了，大骂:
"You beast! Can't you even recognize me?"
“畜生!怎么连我都不认得了!”
While cursing, he picked up a wooden stick and chased the dog to beat it.
他一边骂，一边拣起一根木棍，追上去要打狗。
When Yang Zhu saw that his brother was going to beat the dog, he hurriedly came out, took hold of Yang Bu and said:
这时候，杨朱看见弟弟要打狗，急忙跑出来，拉住杨布，说:
"Alas! How can you blame the dog? Suppose our dog were a white dog when it went out, but came back black, could you recognize it as our own dog?"
“哎呀!你怎么能怪狗呢?假如我们这条狗出去的时候是条白狗，回来的时候变成了一条黑狗，你能认得出是自己家的狗吗。”
中国经典寓言故事：薛谭学讴
Qin Qing was a famous singer in the State of Qin.
秦青是秦国著名的歌唱家。
A young man named Xue Tan acknowledged him as teacher to learn singing and playing musical instruments from him.
有个名叫薛谭的青年，拜他为师，向他学习演唱和弹奏。
Xue Tan learned for a certain period of time, but before he had mastered the skill of his teacher, he thought that he had learned all.
薛谭学习了一段时间，还没有把师父的本领学到手，就自以为都学好了。
One day, Xue Tan planned to leave his teacher for home. His teacher knew he was leaving and did not urge him to stay.
一天，薛谭打算离开老师回家。老师知道他要走，就没有挽留他。
The day Xue Tan said goodbye to his teacher and set out for home, Qin Qing accompanied him on his way and gave him an especial farewell dinner outside the city. During the dinner, Qin Qing beat time and sang a solemn and stirring song. His resounding voice shook the trees along the road; his beautiful singing kept the clouds lingering in the sky.
薛谭告别老师，动身回家的那天，秦青送他出城，并在城外特地为他饯行。席间，秦青打着拍子，唱起了悲壮动人的歌曲。那高亢的歌喉，震颤了路旁的树木;那美妙的歌声，留住了天上的行云。
Xue Tan heard the singing and felt ashamed of himself. He hurriedly knelt down before his teacher and apologized:
薛谭听了，感到很惭愧，急忙跪着向老师道歉，说:
"Master, after I heard you sing, I can find no place to hide myself for shame. I am ashamed beyond words. I am far from mastering your skill."
“老师，学生听了您的演唱，真是无地自容，羞愧难言!我还远远没有学会老师的技艺呢!”
He asked his teacher to forgive him and allow him to stay and resume his learning. From then on, he learned humbly and dared not ask to go home. Later, he said to everyone he met:
他请求老师宽恕，同意他留下来，继续学习。从此，他虚心学习，再也不敢要求回家了。后来，他逢人便说:
"To learn a skill, how can one be conceited and learn only half-baked knowledge?"
“学习技艺哪能骄傲自满，一知半解呢!”
中国经典寓言故事：致富妙法
There lived a rich man named Guo in the State of Qi and a poor man named Xiang in the State of Song.
齐国有个姓“国”的富人，宋国有个姓“向”的穷人。
The poor man came to the State of Qi to visit the rich man, and asked him about the way to get rich.
穷人到齐国去拜访那位富人，向他请教致富的方法。
The rich man in the State of Qi told him:
齐国富人告诉他:
"I was also very poor before, but now I am quite well-off. The only reason is that I can steal and rob. But it is very painstaking. By stealing and robbing, I could make a living in the first year, and in the second year I had more than enough to eat and wear. In the third year, my family's storehouse was truly filled with grain and millet."
“我原来也很贫穷，可是现在日子过得很好。原因只是我会偷、会抢罢了。不过太辛苦了。我偷呀抢呀，第一年生活就够维持了，第二年就已经吃不完穿不完了，第三年我家里真是粮满囤、谷满仓。”
The man of Song only heard him talk profusely about stealing and robbing, but did not find out clearly how to steal and rob. The minute he returned home, he got dizzy with imagined success and started to steal and rob.
宋国人只听见他满口的偷呀抢呀，却没有问清楚究竟怎么个偷法、怎么个抢法。他一回到家就得意忘形地动手去偷、去抢。
As soon as it was dark, he climbed over the wall of the family on the east, and dug a hole in the wall of the family on the west. He stole whatever he saw. After some time, his family actually began getting rich. But just when he was immensely proud of himself, the bailiffs from the yamen (government office) came and arrested him. He was declared guilty and put in prison. All the things he had stolen and robbed, together with his own old and worn-out stuff, were confiscated.
天一黑，他就翻东家的墙，挖西家的洞。看到什么偷什么。时间一长，家里居然也富起来了。可是，正当他洋洋自得的时候，衙门差人到他家里，将他捉拿归案，判了罪，坐了牢。他偷来抢来的一切，连同他原有的破旧东西，全部被没收了。
As soon as the thief was released upon completion of his prison term, he went to Guo's home in the State of Qi to blame him. The rich man asked him in haste:
这个小偷刑满之后从监牢里一出来就跑到齐国姓“国”的家里责怪他。富人连忙问他:
"How are you doing?"
“你干得怎么样了?”
The thief told him what had happened and sighed:
小偷将经过诉说了一遍，唉声叹气地说:
"I am now even poorer than before."
“我比以前更穷了。”
The rich man was astonished at first, then said regretfully:
富人先是大吃一惊，接着惋惜地说:
"How can you be in reduced circumstances? Alas, you completely misunderstood what I meant by stealing and robbing."
“你怎么会弄到这个地步呢?哎呀!你把我说的偷、抢的意思完全误会了。”
He continued:
又说:
"By stealing and robbing, I meant seeking for the resources of the earth, and racing against the seasons of the heavens. Dense forests, broad land, sunshine, rain and dew, wind and cloud, all these are my targets for robbing. I approach them, make friends with them, and rely on them to plant crops and build houses. Birds in the sky, beasts on land, fish and shrimp in the river…all these don't belong to me by nature. But I, fearing neither hardship nor toil, use my brains and think up ways to steal them and rob them. This is stealing and robbing in an open and aboveboard way. It is by no means committing a crime. As to the clothing, food and articles of individuals, they are obtained through people's own labour, and can only belong to these people. I have never encouraged you to steal and rob other people's private property. But you have actually done so, which does break the law. Who is to blame for your being found guilty and put in prison?"
“我说的偷、抢是向土地要资源，与老天抢时间。茂密的山林、广阔的土地、阳光、雨露、风云等都是我抢夺的对象。我接近它们，同它们交朋友，依靠它们，种庄稼、建房屋。空中的飞禽，陆上的走兽，河里的鱼虾··…这些东西原来都不属于我，但是我动脑筋，想办法，不怕苦，不怕累，把它们偷了过来，抢了过来，这是光明正大的偷、抢，并不是犯罪呀!至于那些属于私人的衣物、食品都是人们用自己的劳动取得的，只能属于他们自己。我从来没有叫你去偷、去抢人家的东西呀!可是你竟然去偷、去抢别人家的东西，这是犯法的行为。你被判罪坐牢，这到底应该怪谁呢?”
