英漢雙語(yǔ)故事:蒙鳩Meng Jiu

字號(hào):

Meng jiu is a kind of bird that lives in the south. It always makes its delicate nest with beautiful feathers, and fastens the nest to the spikes of reeds.
     蒙鳩是南方的一種鳥(niǎo),它總是柔軟美麗的羽毛紡織成精巧細(xì)致的窩巢,并精心地系在蘆葦?shù)幕ㄋ肷稀?BR>     Whenever there is a big wind, the nest always falls to the ground when the reeds break. All the eggs and young birds are killed. Disaster happens not because the nest Meng Jiu makes is nt fast enough, but the reed that the nest is fastened to is too weak.
     每當(dāng)大風(fēng)降臨時(shí),鳥(niǎo)窩常常因蘆葦折斷而掉下來(lái),里面的蛋和幼鳥(niǎo)也被摔破摔死,無(wú)一幸免。蒙鳩的窩做得并不是不好,發(fā)生災(zāi)難的原因是因?yàn)樗脕?lái)系窩的蘆葦太不結(jié)實(shí)。
