伊索寓言:北风与太阳

阅读 :

  The North Wind and the Sun

  THE NORTH WIND and the Sun disputed as to which was the most powerful, and agreed that he should be declared the victor who could first strip a wayfaring man of his clothes. The North Wind first tried his power and blew with all his might, but the keener his blasts, the closer the Traveler wrapped his cloak around him, until at last, resigning all hope of victory, the Wind called upon the Sun to see what he could do. The Sun suddenly shone out with all his warmth. The Traveler no sooner felt his genial rays than he took off one garment after another, and at last, fairly overcome with heat, undressed and bathed in a stream that lay in his path.

  Persuasion is better than Force.

  北风与太阳

  北风与太阳两方为谁的能量大而相互争论不休。他们决定,谁能使得行人脱下衣服,谁就胜利了。北风一开始就猛烈地刮,路上的行人紧紧裹住自己的衣服,风见此,刮得更猛。行人冷得发抖,便添加更多衣服。风刮疲倦了,便让位给太阳。太阳最初把温和的阳光洒向行人,行人脱掉了添加的衣服,太阳接着把强烈阳光射向大地,行人们开始汗流浃背,渐渐地忍受不了,脱光了衣服,跳到了旁边的河里去洗澡。

  这个故事带出的启示就是:劝说往往比强迫更为有效。
