狼和小羊（原文）
狼來(lái)到小溪邊,看見(jiàn)小羊在那兒喝水.
狼想吃小羊,就故意找碴兒,說(shuō)：“你把我喝的水弄臟了!你安地什么心?”
小羊吃了一驚,溫和地說(shuō)：“我怎么會(huì)把您喝的水弄臟呢?您站在上游,水是從您那兒流到我這兒來(lái)的,不是從我這兒流到您那兒去的.”
狼氣沖沖地說(shuō)：“就算這樣吧,你總是個(gè)壞家伙!我聽(tīng)說(shuō),去年你在背地里說(shuō)我的壞話!”
可憐的小羊喊道：“啊,親愛(ài)的狼先生,那是不可能的,去年我還沒(méi)有生下來(lái)哪!”
狼不想再爭(zhēng)辯了,齜著牙,逼近小羊,大聲嚷道：“你這個(gè)小壞蛋!說(shuō)我壞話的不是你就是你爸爸,反正都一樣.”說(shuō)著就往小羊身上撲去.

Aesop’s Fables
The Wolf and the Lamb
Once upon a time a Wolf was lapping at a spring on a hillside, when, looking up, what should he see but a Lamb just beginning to drink a little lower down. ‘There’s my supper,’ thought he, ‘if only I can find some excuse to seize it.’ Then he called out to the Lamb, ‘How dare you muddle the water from which I am drinking?’
‘Nay, master, nay,’ said Lambikin; ‘if the water be muddy up there, I cannot be the cause of it, for it runs down from you to me.’
‘Well, then,’ said the Wolf, ‘why did you call me bad names this time last year?’
‘That cannot be,’ said the Lamb; ‘I am only six months old.’
‘I don’t care,’ snarled the Wolf; ‘if it was not you it was your father;’ and with that he rushed upon the poor little Lamb and .WARRA WARRA WARRA WARRA WARRA .ate her all up. But before she died she gasped out .’Any excuse will serve a tyrant.’
