英语故事少说多听

There was an old owl who lived in an oak tree. Every day,he observed incidents that occurred around him.

Yesterday, he watched as a young boy helped an old man carry a heavy basket. Today,he saw a young girl shouting at her mother. The more he saw,the less he spoke.

As the days went on, he spoke less but heard more.The old owlheard people talking and telling stories.

He heard a woman saying an elephant jumped over a fence. He heard a man saying that he had never made a mistake.

The old owl had seen and heard what happened to people. There were some who became better, some who became worse. But the old owl in the tree had become wiser, each and every day.

The Moral: Be more observant. Talk less and listen more. This willmake us wise.

从前有一只老猫头鹰，住在一棵橡树上。每天，他都会观察周围发生的事件。

昨天，他看到一个小男孩帮助一位老人拎着一个沉重的篮子。今天，他看到一个年轻女孩对她妈妈大喊大叫。他见得越多，说话就越少。

日子一天天过去，他说话越来越少，听得却越来越多。老猫头鹰听到人们说话、讲故事。

他听到一个女人说一头大象跳过了栅栏。他听到一个人说他从来没有犯过错误。

老猫头鹰亲眼所见、亲耳所闻。有的人变得更好，有的人变得更糟。但树上的老猫头鹰一天比一天变得更聪明。

寓意：更加细心。少说多听。这将使我们变得明智。
