The fox, filled with arrogance, examined the cat from head to feet, and for a long time did not know whether he should give an answer. At last he said, "Oh, you poor beard-licker, you speckled fool, you hungry mouse hunter, what are you thinking? Have you the nerve to ask how I am doing? What do you know? How many tricks do you understand?"
"I understand but one," answered the cat, modestly.
"What kind of a trick is it?" asked the fox.
"When the dogs are chasing me, I can jump into a tree and save myself."
"Is that all?" said the fox. "I am master of a hundred tricks, and in addition to that I have a sackful of cunning. I feel sorry for you. Come with me, and I will teach you how one escapes from the dogs."
Just then a hunter came by with four dogs. The cat jumped nimbly up a tree, and sat down at its top, where the branches and foliage completely hid her.
"Untie your sack, Mr. Fox, untie your sack," the cat shouted to him, but the dogs had already seized him, and were holding him fast.
"Oh, Mr. Fox," shouted the cat. "You and your hundred tricks are left in the lurch. If you been able to climb like I can, you would not have lost your life."
一只猫在森林里遇到一只狐狸，心想：“他又聪明，又丰富，挺受人尊重的。”於是它很友好地和狐狸打招呼：“日安，尊敬的狐狸先生，您好吗?这些日子挺艰难的，您过得怎么样?”
狐狸傲慢地将猫从头到脚地打量了一番，半天拿不定主意是不是该和它说话。最后它说：“哦，你这个倒霉的长着鬍子、满身花纹的傻瓜、饥肠辘辘地追赶老鼠的.傢伙，你会啥?有甚么资格问我过得怎么样?你都学了点甚么本事?”
“我只有一种本领。”猫谦虚地说。
“甚么本领?”狐狸问。
“有人追我的时候，我会爬到树上去藏起来保护自己。”
“就这本事?”狐狸不屑地说，“我掌握了上百种本领，而且还有满口袋计谋。我真觉得你可怜，跟着我吧，我教你怎么从追捕中逃生。”
就在这时，猎人带着四条狗走近了。猫敏捷地窜到一棵树上，在树顶上蹲伏下来，茂密的树叶把它遮挡得严严实实。
“快打开你的计谋口袋，狐狸先生，快打开呀!”猫冲着狐狸喊道。可是猎狗已经将狐狸扑倒咬住了。“哎呀，狐狸先生，”猫喊道，“你的千百种本领就这么给扔掉了!假如你能像我一样爬树就不至於丢了性命了!”

时光荏苒，日月如梭。从孟子的“达则兼济天下”，到顾炎武的“天下兴亡，匹夫有责”。再到今天的“国家兴，我兴”。我们与中国共同成长，共同进步，更是亲身经历了祖国的\'成长。
回首过去，中国遭遇了许多灾难，也抓住了许多发展机遇。古人云：患难见真情。这朴素的哲理在一次灾难中得以体现，2008年汶川地震突然爆发，造成了百万人流离失所丧失生命，与此同时全国人民展开紧急救援，政府派出武装部队前去营救，各地单位学校组织捐赠活动支持，这就是中国的团结，一方有难，八方支援。中国人民用自己的团结的力量战胜了天灾。同在2008年，中国如期举行了北京奥运会，向各国展现着中国健儿的雄姿，更是一个具有无限发展潜力的中国，中国在天灾中成长，在世界武林中做着高视阔步的王者。
拿破仑曾经将中国比作沉睡中的雄狮，如果在拿破仑时期中国是一头沉睡中的雄狮，那么在今天以及以后便是以王者的英姿屹立在世界的舞台中央。
改革开放40多年来，中国人民不断探索，不断创新，走出了一条具有中华民族特色社会的发展道路，展望未来，机遇和挑战并存，曾经在十九大中强调：“21世纪是充满机遇的时代，也是充满挑战的时代。”诚其所言，我国在21世纪完成了令人瞩目的成就，完成了首次太空授课，公路村村通接近完成，扶贫工作也在大力实施，这些工程的完成给我们提供了更多的机遇，而在机遇的背后也有更多的挑战，人工智能领域在我国蓬勃发展，人们在惊叹其发展迅速之快的同时，也担心人工智能是否会对人类产生影响，这样的担忧也给我们带来了更大的挑战，而作为新一代的世纪宝宝，我们要努力学习知识，为国奋斗。
梁启超在《少年中国说》中写到：“少年强则国强，少年独立则国独立。”也就是说我们这一代青年们要有敢于承担责任的精神品质，要有以国家为荣，以危害国家为耻的内心，回首过去，中国人民团结一心，谋发展，谋富强，谋幸福，而在今天则是到了一个新高度，中国站起来了，能够自力更生了，不用再受外国的侵略了，有更多的国家选择与中国肩并肩一起共同发展。
面对机遇和挑战，我们要以不畏艰难，敢于拼搏，勇于创造的精神品质去面对，为国争光，人人有责。

??语伊索寓言故事：狮子和老鼠Lion was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up in anger, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously entreated, saying: "If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness." The Lion laughed and let him go.
It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came up, and gnawed the rope with his teeth, and setting him free, exclaimed: "You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, not expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favour; but now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a Lion."
一只老鼠从一只狮子面前跑过去，将它从梦中吵醒。狮子生气地跳起来，捉住老鼠，要弄它。老鼠哀求说：「只要你肯饶恕我这条小生命，我将来一定会报答你的大恩。」狮子便笑着放了它。
后来狮子被几个猎人捉住，用粗绳捆绑倒在地上。老鼠听出是狮子的`吼声，走来用牙齿咬断绳索，释放了它，并大声说：「你当时嘲笑我想帮你的忙，而且也不指望我有什么机会报答。但是你现在知道了，就算是小老鼠，也能向狮子效劳的。」

不经风雨怎能见彩虹？
记得有一次，考完试后，回到家，觉得自己考的.不是很好，便和爸爸妈妈说，爸爸妈妈没有骂我，只是说下次努力就是了。但是，我也不知怎的，眼泪就哗啦啦的流下。成绩单发下来以后，教导在全校面前公布了成绩。我居然得了年级第一，但是成绩不是很理想。这次考试的题真的很难，当时我以为就自己不会，别人都懂，所以就流泪了。
经过这件事，我懂得了很多：只要自己努力了，就一定能成功。不过，在成功的背后，还必须学会坚强，只有坚强，这成功才是完美的！
当自己被别人乱取一些外号时，千万不能哭泣，而是要经过自己的百般努力，百般的坚强，让别人觉得自己了不起；当考砸的时候，不能哭泣，只要自己凭这坚强的意志，不断的努力，就能提高自己的成绩；当和伙伴玩耍的时候，不小心摔倒，皮肤受伤了，不能哭，因为这种哭是非常愚蠢的，哭根本解决不了事情……
学习的道路真的非常辛苦，但是，想想现在的名人：叶圣陶，张海迪，朱自清……再想想他们的故事。他们又是经过多少努力才登上高峰，他们的背后，比我们有着更艰辛的挫折。所以，就算学习再怎么辛苦，都要坚持下去，努力下去。
有的人梦想当一名主持人，梦想当科学家，梦想当歌星……但是，他们做到了吗？没有。这说明了什么？这是因为他们没有努力，没有坚强。他们没有经过一定的磨练，一定的挫折。你可曾想过，主持人，科学家，歌星……他们的背后有着多艰难的道路，他们的道路是坎坷的，他们是经过一关一关才走到了今天。
让我们一起学会坚强，学会努力！

Father had a family of sons who were perpetually quarrelling among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They each tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it.
He next unclosed the faggot, and took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into their hands, on which they broke them easily. He then
addressed them in these words: "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks."
