Self-Contradictory
In ancient times, there was a man who sold spears as well as shields.
古时候，有一个人，他既卖矛又卖盾。
One day, he hawked his wares at the market and was very pleased with himself. He held up a shield and said: "My shield is very strong. No matter how sharp a spear is, it cannot pierce my shield."
一天，他在集市上叫卖，非常得意。他举起他的盾说:“我的盾非常坚固，无论怎样好的矛，都戳不穿它!”
After that, he held up his spear and bragged: "My spear is very sharp. No matter how strong a shield is, my spear can pierce it.
说完，他又举起他的矛夸口说:“我的矛非常锋利，无论怎样坚固的盾都能戳进去!”
When the people standing by heard this, they laughed up their sleeves. One of them asked him:
站在旁边的人听了，都暗暗地发笑。有人问他:
"According to what you said, your spear is the sharpest. No matter how strong a shield is, your spear can pierce it. Your shield is also the strongest. No matter how sharp a spear is, it cannot pierce your shield. Now, if I poke your shield with your spear, what will be the result?"
“照你这样说，你的矛是最锋利的，无论怎样硬的盾都戳得进去;你的盾又是最坚固的，无论怎样锋利的矛，也别想戳进去。那么，现在我用你的矛来戳你的盾，看看结果会怎样呢?”
The man was so embarrassed that he could not utter a single word.
那个人窘得连一句话也答不上来。
关于小学短篇英语故事：相辅相成Complementing Each Other
In the past, a man bragged about his bow: "There is no bow better than mine. It doesn't need any arrow!"
从前，有个人自夸他的弓，说:“我的弓嘛，没有比这更好的了，好得不需要用什么箭的!”
Another man bragged about his arrow:"There is no arrow better than而ne. It doesn't need any bow!"
也有人在自夸他的箭，说:“我的箭，没有比这更好的了，好得用不着什么弓了!”
At that time, a man good at archery happened to pass by and heard their dialogue. He said:
这时候，恰好有一个会射箭的人从他们身边走过，听到他们的这段对话，就说:
"You are both wrong. One cannot shoot an arrow without a bow; and without an arrow, how can one hit the target?"
“你们两人的话都不对。没有弓，发不出箭;没有箭，怎么能射中目标呢?”
Thereupon, the man good at archery asked them to take out their bow and arrow. Then he showed them how to shoot at the target with a bow and an arrow.
说完后，会射箭的人还叫他们把弓和箭都拿出来，射箭给他们看。
Now they understood: A bow won't do without an arrow; nor an arrow without a bow. They complement each other.
他们这才明白:弓不能离开箭，箭也离不开弓，两者相辅相成。
关于小学短篇英语故事：掩耳盗铃Covering One's Ears to Steal a Bell
Once upon a time, a man saw a doorbell hanging from someone's door and wanted to steal it.
从前，有个人看见人家大门上挂着一只门铃，就想把它偷来。
But he knew that if he were to steal the bell, it would start ringing the moment his hand touched it. If he were discovered, not only he couldn't get the bell, but he himself might also be caught.
但是，他知道，如果去偷这只门铃，只要手一碰到，就会发出“铃铃铃”的响声。如被人发觉，不但偷不到铃，而且还会被捉住。
He thought this over and said to himself:
他想了想，自言自语地说:
"Why will there be trouble when a bell rings? This is because our ears can hear it. If I cover my ears, I won't be able to hear it. This way I won't be caught."
“为什么铃响了，就会闯出祸来呢?这是因为耳朵能听见。假如把耳朵捂住，不是听不见铃声了么?这样，就不会被人家捉住了。”
Later, he eventually got an idea. He first covered his own ears, then went on to steal the bell. However, in the end he was still discovered and caught red-handed.
后来，他终于想出了一个办法:先把自己耳朵捂住，再去偷那只门铃。结果，他还是被人当场发现捉住了。
