中國成語寓言故事雙語版:抱嬰投江

字號:

Once upon a time, a man passing by a river noticed that a grown-up man was going to throw a child he carried in his arms into the river.
    從前,有個人路過江邊時,發(fā)現(xiàn)一個成年男子抱著一個小孩,準備把他投到江里去。
    At this moment, the child was frightened, crying loudly and shouting in confusion.
    這時候,小孩害怕了,嚇得“哇哇”地亂哭亂叫。
    The passer-by asked:
    那個過路人就問:
    "Why are you to throw the child into the river? Aren't you afraid he would be drowned?"
    “你為什么要把孩子投到江里去?難道不怕他淹死嗎?”那個男一子回答說:
    The man answered:"It doesn't matter. His father is good at swimming."
    “不要緊,他爸爸是個游泳能手。”
    The passer-by then asked:
    那個過路人就說:
    "His father can swim, but does it follow that the son can also swim without practice?"
    “爸爸會游泳,難道他兒子不經(jīng)過練習,也會游泳嗎?”
