蚂蚁和蜜蜂原本是亲密无间的好朋友。可有一天，一中只蚂蚁到城里去找吃的。听到小朋友唱着《我们的生活比蜜甜》;画馆里陈列着蜜蜂采蜜的画。 Ants and bees used to be close friends. But one day, one of the ants went to the city to find food. I heard the children singing "our life is sweeter than honey"; there are honeybee paintings in the painting gallery. 那只蚂蚁可纳闷了：人类怎么专画它们，不画我们!也许别处能找到人类赞美我们的地方。可它找遍了每个角落也没找到赞美蚂蚁的地方。便回到窝里，把今天遇到的事告诉大王和王后。 That ant can wonder: how can humans draw them and not us? Maybe we can find somewhere else where humans praise us. But he searched every corner and couldn't find a place to praise ants. Then he went back to the nest and told the king and the queen what happened today. 大王和王听了之后可不高兴。王后首先发了言：“人类真偏心，不就是蜜蜂比我们大，比我们漂亮吗!这又有什么了不起的!” The king and the king are not happy. The queen first said, "human beings are really eccentric. Isn't the bee bigger and prettier than us? What's the big deal!" “是啊!有可能蜜蜂经常蛰人类，人类怕了，就只好用这个法子，让蜜蜂高兴。一个‘行贿’，一个‘受贿’真是不要脸!”国王振振有词的说。 |
