动画英语丨The Heart of a Monkey

A monkey and a shark struck up a friendship, with the monkey tossing his friend the fruits of a giant mku yu tree that grew overhanging the ocean.

After a time, the shark said if the monkey would only come home with him, he would give him a gift, and offered to carry him. The monkey accepted, but half way there, the shark told him that the sultan of his country was deathly ill and needed a monkey's heart to cure him.

The monkey said it was a pity, because if he had known, he could have brought his heart, but as it was, he had left it behind. The shark, deceived, brought him back to get it. The monkey instantly jumped up into the tree and was not to be lured back down.

He told the shark a story of a washerman's donkey, which was twice persuaded to meet with a lion, and so lost its life the second time — and that the monkey was not a washerman's donkey.

一只猴子和一条鲨鱼建立了友谊,猴子把长在悬于海洋上方的巨大姆库尤树上的果实扔给他的朋友。

过了一段时间,鲨鱼说如果猴子愿意跟他回家,他会送给他一份礼物,并提出驮着他。猴子接受了,但在半路上,鲨鱼告诉他自己国家的苏丹病得很重,需要一颗猴子的心来治愈他。

猴子说很遗憾,因为如果他早知道,他本可以把心带来,但实际上,他把心落在了后面。鲨鱼被骗了,把他带回去取心。猴子立刻跳上树,再也不会被引诱下来了。

他给鲨鱼讲了一个洗衣人的驴子的故事,这头驴子两次被劝说去见狮子,结果第二次丢了性命 —— 而猴子可不是洗衣人的驴子。返回搜狐,查看更多
