A great mountain Long ago a great mountain began to rumble and shake. People came from far and near to see what would happen. A great river will be born. said one. Surely nothing less than a mighty dragon will come out. said another. A god himself will spring form these rocks. said a third. Finally, after days of expectation a small crack appeared in the mountain. And out popped --- a mouse. Just because someone makes a lot of fuss, it doesnt mean he is important. 很久以前,一座大山隆隆作响,摇晃起来。远近各处的人都来看是怎么回事。 一个人说:要出现一条大河了。 另一个人说:准会出现一条巨龙。 第三个人说:从这些岩石中会出现一尊神来。 等了几天之后,山坡上终于裂开一条小缝,却蹦出来一只耗子。 正因为某人大肆张扬,所以他没有什么了不起。 |
