农夫、驴和公牛这篇寓言故事寓意是:有些事情是人人都可以做的,但是有些事情是只有一些人可以做的。
THE ASS AND THE OLD PEASANT
An old Peasant was sitting in a meadow watching his Ass,which was grazing close by,when all of a sudden he caught sight of armed men stealthily approaching.He jumped up in a moment,and begged the Ass to fly with him as fast as he could,“Or else,”said he,“we shall both be captured by the enemy.”But the Ass just looked round lazily and said,“And if SO,do you think they’ll make me carry heavier loads than I have to now?”“No.”said his master.“Oh,well,then,”said the Ass,“I don’t mind ifthey do take me,for I shan’t be any worse off.”
THE PLOUGHMAN, THE ASS, AND THE OX
A Ploughman yoked his Ox and his Ass together, and set to work to plough his field. It was a poor makeshift of a team, but it was the best he could do, as he had but a single Ox. At the end of the day, when the beasts were loosed from the yoke, the Ass said to the Ox, “Well,we’ve had a hard day: which of us is to carry the master home?” The Ox looked surprised at the question. “Why,” said he, “you, to be sure, as usual.”
