英语寓言故事 篇七

You can imagine that man and his whole night of scare. Every moment there was death, his hands were becoming cold, he was losing his grip.。.。.。 and as the sun came out he looked down and he laughed. There was no abyss. Just six inches down there was a rock. He could have rested the whole night, slept well---the rock was big enough---but the whole night was a nightmare.

There is nothing to fear.

马马虎虎 英文故事 篇九
Careless
In ancient China, Song dynasty, there was a painter in the capital city. He was such a careless man that he drawed whatever he liked. One day, a customer came to the painter’s house and asked him to draw a tiger. The painter did it as the guest’s request. He draw carlessly within a minute. As a result, the picture turned out to be neither like a horse nor a tiger. The guest got confused and asked him ，”what it was?” The painter impatiently replied,”hortiger”。 The guest didn’t like it and went away. On the contrary, the paitner thought it was a very good painting. He was so self-conceit that he couldn’t see what’s wrong with his painting. He put it on the wall in the dinning hall for appreciation and then did his housework. After a while, his elder son saw the painting when he came home. He asked his father what he drawed in the painting. The painter answered,”Tt is a tiger”。 And a moment later ， his younger son got home and also saw the painting in the dinning hall. He was curious about it and asked his father what it was. “A horse”， his father replied without thought.
Several days went by. His elder son went off hunting. He mistook a farmer’s horse for a tiger and killed it. The painter had to apologized to the farmer for killing his horse and paid back. But troubles never come single. His yonger son ran into a tiger as he was travelling. Like his brother, he couldn’t tell a tiger from a horse. Thus, he got eaten by the tiger. The painter was devastated by his death. He burned the painting with tears and sorrows and regreted so much that he wrote a poem to remind himself of his carlessness. “马虎图，马虎图，似马又似虎，长子依图射死马，次子依图喂了虎。草堂焚毁马虎图，奉劝诸君莫学吾。”
Though it is not a good poem, it is a great lesson written in blood. Since then, the word mahu became widely known and passed on by people. At present, we used the word to mean not paying enough attention to what you are doing and so you are making mistakes, or causing harm or damage.
