【少兒英語故事】 驢子和馬 The donkey and a horse

晚上好，親愛的們，今天懶懶給大家帶來的故事是《驢子和馬》，農夫給他們安排一樣的任務，結果卻累死了一個，為什麼呢？一起來看看吧！

A farmer wanted to bring ten bags of rice to the market and sell them。 He put five bags of rice on his horse and five bags of rice on his donkey。

一個農夫想帶著十袋大米去市場售賣。他把五袋大米放在馬背上，五袋大米放在驢子背上。

The bags were very heavy， and soon the donkey became tired。

這些袋子太重了，很快，驢子就累了。

“Please，” he said to the horse， “could you carry one of my bags for me？ They‘re so heavy， and you are stronger than I am。”

”拜託。“他對馬說，”你可以幫我背一袋嗎？袋子太重了，而你卻比我強壯。“

“No，” said the horse。 “I serve the farmer， not you。 He gave me five bags to carry， not six！ You must do your job， and I must do mine。”

”不。“馬說，”我為農夫服務，不是為你服務。他讓我背五個袋子，而不是六個。你要完成你的工作，我也必須完成我的工作。“

The farmer， the horse， and the donkey continued walking under the hot sun。

農夫，馬和驢子繼續在太陽底下趕路。

The poor donkey became more and more tired。 Suddenly， he fell over at the side of the road。

那可憐的驢子越來越累。突然，他在路旁倒下了。

The farmer tried to pull the donkey to his feet， but the donkey was too tired to move。 Then the farmer took the donkey’s five bags of rice and put them on the horse。

農夫嘗試將驢子拉起來站好，但是驢子累得動不了。然後農夫就將驢子的五袋大米放到了馬的背上。

The horse realized he had made a big mistake。 “If I had agreed to help the donkey，” he cried， “I‘d only have to carry one extra bag。 Now I must carry all ten！”

馬意識到他自己犯了一個錯誤。“如果我早同意幫助驢子”，他大聲地說，“那我最多就背多一袋大米，現在，我必須要背十袋大米了！”。
