　　愚公移山--寓言故事中英文版太行,王屋二山的北面,住了一个九十岁的老翁,名叫愚公.二山占地广阔,挡住去路,使他和家人往来极为不便.一天,愚公召集家人说：「让我们各尽其力,铲平二山,开条道路,直通豫州,你们认为怎样?」大家都异口同声赞成,只有他的妻子表示怀疑,并说：「你连开凿一个小丘的力量都没有,怎可能铲平太行、王屋二山呢?况且,凿出的土石又丢到哪里去呢?」大家都热烈地说：「把土石丢进渤海里.」于是愚公就和儿孙,一起开挖土,把土石搬运到渤海去.愚公的邻居是个寡妇,有个儿子八岁也兴致勃勃地走来帮忙.寒来暑往,他们要一年才能往返渤海一次.住在黄河河畔的智叟,看见他们这样辛苦,取笑愚公说：「你不是很愚蠢吗?你已一把年纪了,就是用尽你的气力,也不能挖去山的一角呢?」愚公叹息道：「你有这样的成见,是不会明白的.你比那寡妇的小儿子还不如呢!就算我死了,还有我的儿子,我的孙子,我的曾孙子,他们一直传下去.而这二山是不会加大的,总有一天,我们会把它们铲平.」智叟听了,无话可说：二山的守护神被愚公的坚毅精神吓倒,便把此事奏知天帝.天帝佩服愚公的精神,就命两位大力神背走二山.(阿冷阳)HowTheFoolishOldManMovedMountainsYugongwasaninety-year-oldmanwholivedatthenorthoftwohighmountains,MountTaihangandMountWangwu.Stretchingoverawideexpanseofland,themountainsblockedyugong'swaymakingitinconvenientforhimandhisfamilytogetaround.Onedayyugonggatheredhisfamilytogetherandsaid,"Let'sdoourbesttolevelthesetwomountains.WeshallopenaroadthatleadstoYuzhou.Whatdoyouthink?"Allbuthiswifeagreedwithhim."Youdon'thavethestrengthtocutevenasmallmound,"mutteredhiswife."HowonearthdoyousupposeyoucanlevelMountTaixinandMountWanwu?Moreover,wherewillalltheearthandrubblego?""DumpthemintotheSeaofBohai!"saideveryone.SoYugong,hissons,andhisgrandsonsstartedtobreakuprocksandremovetheearth.TheytransportedtheearthandrubbletotheSeaofBohai.NowYugong'sneighbourwasawidowwhohadanonlychildeightyearsold.Eveningtheyoungboyofferedhishelpeagerly.Summerwentbyandwintercame.IttookYugongandhiscrewafullyeartotravelbackandforthonce.OnthebankoftheYellowRiverdwelledanoldmanmuchrespectedforhiswisdom.Whenhesawtheirback-breakinglabour,heridiculedYugongsaying,"Aren'tyoufoolish,myfriend?Youareveryoldnow,andwithwhateverremainsofyourwaningstrength,youwon'tbeabletoremoveevenacornerofthemountain."Yugongutteredasighandsaid,"Abiasedpersonlikeyouwillneverunderstand.Youcan'tevencomparewiththewidow'slittleboy!""EvenifIweredead,therewillstillbemychildren,mygrandchildren,mygreatgrandchildren,mygreatgreatgrandchildren.Theydescendantswillgoonforever.Butthesemountainswillnotgrowanytaler.Weshalllevelthemoneday!"hedeclaredwithconfidence.Thewiseoldmanwastotallysilenced.WhentheguardiangodsofthemountainssawhowdeterminedYugongandhiscrewwere,theywerestruckwithfearandreportedtheincidenttotheEmperorofHeavens.FilledwithadmirationforYugong,theEmperorofHeavensorderedtwomightygodstocarrythemountainsaway
