2015小學生英語寓言故事：螞蟻和鴿子

　　The Ant and the Dove_螞蟻和鴿子

　　An ant is walking by the river. He looks at the river and says to himself, "How nice and cool this water looks! I must drink some of it." But when he is drinking, he slips into the river.

　　"Oh.Help!Help!" The ant cries,

　　A dove is sitting in the tree. She hears him and throws him a leaf, "Climb up that leaf," she says "and you will float bank."

　　The ant climbs uo onto the leaf, and the wind blows the leaf to the bank. And the ant is saved.

　　"Thank you, Dove. You're so kind," The ant says and runs home, "You have saved my life, and I wish I could do something for you, Goodbye!"

　　"Goodbye!" says the dove, "Be careful. Not to fall into the river again."

　　After a few days, the dove is building her nest. And a man is raising his gun to shoot her.

　　The ant sees this, and runs quickly to bite the man's leg. "Ouch! Ouch!" The man feels pained and drops his gun. The dove hears and flies away. So the man picks up his gun and leave.

　　The dove comes to her nest. "Thank you, my little friend," she says, "You have saved my life."

　　The little ant is so glad, because he can help the dove.

　　一只螞蟻在河邊散步。他看見喝水自言自語道："這河水看上去真清涼啊!我要去喝點。"可是他在喝水的時候，一不小心滑進河里了。

　　"啊!救命!救命!'螞蟻叫喊著。

　　一只鴿子正呆在樹上，聽見呼救聲，就扔給他一片樹葉。"快爬到樹葉上去。她說："你會漂到岸上的。"

　　"謝謝你，鴿子。你真善良。"螞蟻一邊說一邊向家跑，"你救了我的命，我會報答你的。再見!"

　　"再見!小心別掉進河里了。"鴿子說。

　　幾天后，鴿子正在筑巢，一個人舉著槍要打鴿子。螞蟻看見了，迅速地跑過去，在那個人的腿上咬了一口。"啊呀!哎呀!"那個人疼得扔掉槍。鴿子聽見了，連忙飛走了。那個人只好撿起槍，走了。

　　鴿子又飛回巢里。"謝謝你，我的小朋友。"鴿子說，"你救了我的命。"

　　小螞蟻可高興了，因為他也幫助了鴿子。

　　寓意：有些朋友也許平時看似微不足道，但卻有可能在我們身處困難的時候提供巨大的幫助。
