中國(guó)成語(yǔ)寓言故事65:The Mantis Tries to Stop the Chariot蛙臂擋車(雙語(yǔ))
One day, Zhuang Gong, King of the State of Qi, went out in a chariot to hunt.
一天,齊莊公乘車外出打獵。
On the way, he saw a small insect raise both its arms, trying to stop the wheels of the chariot. Zhuang Gong of Qi was curious and asked the driver:
路上,他看見(jiàn)一只小蟲(chóng)舉起雙臂,想阻擋車輪前進(jìn)。齊莊公很好奇,就問(wèn)車夫:
"What kind of insect is it?"
“這是什么蟲(chóng)子?”
"It is a mantis," the driver replied promptly. "This kind of insect only knows how to advance but not retreat, blindly underrating its enemies and overrating its own abilities."
車夫連忙回答:“這是蝗螂。這種蟲(chóng)子只知前進(jìn),不知后退,盲目輕敵,不自量力。”
Hearing the driver's reply, Zhuang Gong smiled to himself and remained silent.
聽(tīng)了車夫的回答,莊公暗自發(fā)笑,默默無(wú)語(yǔ)。
