a man bought a donkey at the market one day and took him home on approval.
now the man owned several donkeys already and he knew each one's character very well.
one of the donkey was very strong and brave. another was eager to please but quicklyexhausted.
one donkey was very lazy. he hated going to work in the morning and he did as little as he possibly could all day long. when the other animals were being loaded up he always tried to be the last so that he would get the lightest load.
the man led the new donkey into the stable yard. for a moment he stood sniffing at his 故事new companions. then, without hesitation, he trotted up to the lazy donkey and began feeding comfortably at his side.
though it was late in the day, the man immediately led the new donkey out of the yard, straight back to the market.
"you cannot have given him a fair trial yet," said the merchant. "it is only ten minutes since you bought him."
"i don't need to try him any more," replied the man. "i know just what he is like from the friend he chose for himself.
take him away and give me my money back. i can do without donkeys like him."
英语短篇寓言故事大全精选2:oh mighty garmentsa brahmin, a member of the hindu priest, had a great reputation for holiness, and received many presents so that he became rich.
one day, he took a fancy to dress himself as a poor peasant.
in this attire(服装), he went into the market place but no one saluted him and no one gave him any presents.
the brahmin then returned to his house and, dressing himself in rich garments, once more set out for the market place.
this time, everybody saluted him and made way for him and many handed him presents.
this was the usual custom when a holy brahmin happened to make his appearance in the market place. once again, the brahmin returned to his home and changed his clothes.
then, taking the rich garments, he set them up on a shrine near the market.
as he prostrates himself before them, cried continually: "o mighty garments, you areesteemed above all else in this world."
the people gathered round in wonder. and in time came to worship the clothes as this brahmin was doing.
this custom has spread farther and farther. now in many countries around the world, trendy and fashionable people do the same thing, though not, perhaps in the way as the brahmin did.
