In the book Aesop's Fables, it's all short stories. However, each story tells a different and profound truth. Among them, the one that impressed me the most was "Tortoise and Hare Race".
The rabbit and the tortoise raced, and the rabbit laughed at the tortoise's slow steps, but the tortoise laughed and said that one day it would run the rabbit. They started the game right away. The turtle crawled desperately and did not stop for a moment.
But the rabbit rushed to the front with one arrow and took the lead. Watching the tortoise being left behind, the rabbit thought to himself, the game was too easy, and he could sleep first. It sat under the tree and fell asleep.
The tortoise insisted on crawling, and it slowly overtook the hare and became the champion.
This story tells a truth, steady forward, often get the final victory!
Now, you guys want to know why I like this story? I'll tell you, I've had that experience too!
When I was in the fourth grade, my math scores were not very good, and I never got above the cut-off score in exams. Some classmates laughed at me: "My test results are worth your two test scores."
Hearing this, I was embarrassed and secretly decided: I will definitely get a good score in the fifth grade for you! During the summer vacation, I worked hard to prepare for fifth-grade math.
There were several times when I wanted to give up. But my determination has strengthened me. Perseverance pays off with good results!
I scored above average on both math exams! When I think back to that scene, I am proud of myself!
The above things tell us that as long as you keep working hard, you will have good results!

The wolf and the heron have spoken.
The wolf swallowed a bone by mistake and was so uncomfortable that he ran around looking for a doctor. He met Heron and negotiated a reward for him.
Taking out the bones, the heron put his head into the wolf's throat, took the bones out, and demanded a fixed reward from the wolf. Wolf.
He said, "Hey, friend, you can take your head back from the wolf's mouth without incident, and you are not satisfied, why do you still talk about reward?" ”
This story tells us that a bad person is a bad person and does not lose his essence, and that we often have to be careful about the reward of the bad person, otherwise we will lose our lives.
This story illustrates that the reward for doing good to bad people is to recognize the nature of bad people who are not trustworthy.

Once upon a time, a merchant fed a big black horse and an honest donkey. The horse is fat, strong, energetic, and very strong. The donkey is also sturdy and sturdy, and is a good hand at carrying goods.
One day, when the merchant was about to go out again, he took the big black horse and the donkey with him. During the journey, there were many, many goods on the donkey's back, and the big black horse was only half as much as the goods on the donkey's back. Along the way, the donkey walked with heavy steps, while the horse walked with ease, and the horse's hooves were gained.
On the third day, the donkey panted and said to the horse, "Brother Ma, I'm a little tired, if you care about my life, then share a little of the burden on my back." ”
When the horse heard this, he thought, "Why should I help you carry something?" He no longer paid attention to the donkey, and walked leisurely.
After a while, the donkey again pleaded to the horse, "Please! Brother Ma! Please! Help me carry some of the weight on my shoulders! I'm dying of exhaustion!!
When the horse heard this, he was very upset, straightened his face, and reprimanded the donkey loudly: "Why do you want me to carry it? Dislike! Aren't you good at carrying it yourself? Can you carry it? Why do you still ask me to help you carry it? What a slacker! ”
On the fourth day, the donkey was exhausted and finally collapsed on the road. So the master put the goods on the donkey's back, along with the skins that had been peeled off, on the horse's back. The big black horse immediately felt the weight on his back, and couldn't help but sigh:
Hey, I'm so unlucky! I deserve my bad luck! I complained that I didn't want to share a little more, but now it's good, I carried all the goods, and I had to add a skin!
Eventually, the horse was so tired that he slowly closed his eyes, and he couldn't open them anymore.
This parable gives us a profound lesson: to help others is to help yourself. In real life, everyone will inevitably encounter difficulties or pains, misfortunes or setbacks of one kind or another, but if someone around them lends a helping hand, people in distress will usher in "another village".
Isn't it? Fifty yuan can make a child who is out of school and herd cattle at home return to school, a bamboo pole can pull a life out of the river, 500cc of blood can make a tough guy stand up again, a pair of warm hands can make a faltering old man calmly walk from one end of the zebra crossing to the other, and a word of proverb can make a young man who has lost his footing feel the warmth ......of springThese seemingly insignificant acts of kindness can get people out of all kinds of difficulties. It is precisely because of this that we have the audacity to make a deafening sound:
This society needs Lei Feng, and this era needs Lei Feng. Friends, remember the adage: to help others is to help yourself.

"The Cicada and the Fox" is an excerpt from "Aesop's Fables" and was written by Aesop, who is said to have been an ancient Greek slave, but very intelligent, imaginative, and witty. Like donkeys, horses, cicadas, ......and other animals all carry human feelings.
In this parable, the fox wants to eat the cicada, so he pretends to praise the cicada's beautiful song, but the cicada is not fooled because he has seen through the fox's tricks because of his observation.
I found that in the article "The Cicada and the Fox", I found that the cicada was vigilant against the fox's "admiration", and "deliberately standing opposite the cicada" wrote about the fox's cunning, and "detecting deception in it" reflected the cicada's wit. "I'm wary of you." Cicadas have been found to be observant.
There is another sentence at the end of the article: A smart person can always learn from the disasters of others. It was discovered that cicadas are not only intelligent but also observant and can learn from the disasters of their peers. This is a word of admonition, which has the effect of setting the end of the day.
In a copy of Aesop's Fables, you can understand a lot of principles about how to be a human being. We must have a good understanding of these truths that have a great education for us.
That's it, see for yourself!!
