一天,商人甲带着随从去野外游玩,不巧被一只恶狼盯上了,恶狼非常凶狠,扑向商人甲,商人甲大声的呼喊着救命,可是身边的随从没有一个人上去救他,随从们都被这只凶狠的恶狼给吓跑了。
商人甲觉得自己一定会被恶狼吃掉,就在这时,一声枪响,打在了恶狼的腿上,恶狼拖着受伤的腿逃进了森林里去,商人甲从地上爬起,发现救自己的不是别人,正是商人乙,商人甲十分感谢商人乙。
商人甲对商人乙说:为什么别人都因怕这恶狼而逃走,你反而却还要救我。
商人乙说:那些人逃走是因为被恶狼抓住的'不是他们的朋友,而我不惧怕恶狼是因为恶狼要吃掉的是我的朋友。
当商人乙说到这的时候,商人甲早已泪流满面,甲乙双方再次和好如初。真正的朋友永远是在你最需要的时候,出现的那个人。
Two men were travelling together,one of whom never spoke the truth,whereas the other never told a lie:and they came in the course of their travels to the land of Apes The King of the Apes,hearing of their arrival,ordered them to be brought before him;and by way of impressing them with his magnificence,he received them sitting on a throne,while the Apes,his subjects,were ranged in long rows on either side of him When the Travellers came into his presence he asked them what they thought of him as a King.The lying Traveller said,“Sire,every one must see that you are a most noble and mighty monarch.”“And what do you think of my subjects?”continued the King“They,”said the Traveller,“are in every way wo——hy of their royal master.”TheApe was so delighted with his answer that he gave him a very handsome present.The other Traveller thought that ifhis companion was rewarded so splendidly for telling a lie,he himself would certainly receive a still greater reward for telling the truth;so,when the Ape turned to him and said,“And what,sir,is your opinion?”he replied,“I think you are a very fine Ape,and all your subjects are fine Apes too.”The King of the Apes was so enraged at his reply that he ordered him to be taken away and clawed to death.
