蚂蚁和蚱蜢
阅读 : 次
THE ANTS were spending a fine winter's day drying grain collected in the summertime. A Grasshopper, perishing with famine, passed by and earnestly begged for a little food. The Ants inquired of him, " Why did you not treasure up food during the summer?' He replied, "I had not leisure enough. I passed the days in singing." They then said in derision: "If you were foolish enough to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the winter."
蚂蚁和蚱蜢：蚂蚁在一个冬季晴朗的天气里，晒那些夏天搜集来的谷物。一只快饿死的蚱蜢经过了，诚挚地向蚂蚁乞讨一些食物。蚂蚁便问他："为什么不在夏天不储存一些食物？"蚱蜢回答说："我夏天也没闲着，我一直在唱歌阿。"接着蚂蚁嘲弄道："如果你愚蠢地在歌声中度过了一夏天，那么你应该在床上跳舞度过你没有晚饭的冬季。" 人要有忧
患意识，俗话说：人无远虑，必有近忧。做事要未雨绸缪，防患于未然。
