he set up a weeping and wailing, and all his limbs were in a state of trepidation, and, however much they soothed him, he was not to be pacified.

他開(kāi)始哭泣、悲號(hào)，四肢不停地顫抖。人們想盡辦法安撫他，但他仍無(wú)法平靜。

the king’s pleasure party was disconcerted by him; but they offered no help.

國(guó)王原本愉快的心情被他攪得不安起來(lái)，但人們卻束手無(wú)策。

on board that ship there was a physician. he said to the king; “if you will order it, i can manage to silence him.”

一個(gè)醫(yī)師也在船上，他對(duì)國(guó)王說(shuō)：“如果允許讓我一試的話(huà)，我有辦法讓他平靜?！?/p>

the king replied, “it will be an act of great favor.”

國(guó)王說(shuō)道：“那就太好了?！?/p>

the physician directed that they throw the boy into the sea, and after he had plunged repeatedly, they seized him by hair of the head and drew him close to be ship,

醫(yī)師吩咐他們把奴隸扔到海里，讓他反復(fù)沉浮幾次后，才抓住他的頭發(fā)把他拖到船邊

就象一個(gè)人只有感受到病痛的折磨時(shí)，方知健康的可貴一樣。

經(jīng)典英語(yǔ)故事

【The Old Cat】

An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.

Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young."

A dog is very thirsty. But he only sees some empty pails. There is no water in them. The dog goes on looking for water. He comes to a small house. There is a girl in it.

The girl comes to a well and puts down the pail, and the pail is full of water, there the girl goes back to her house.

“ Water! Great!” the dog says and runs to the well. He jumps into the well without thought.”

The water is good. The dog is happy and drinks much. But he can’t jump out of the well. He waits and waits. But no one comes. “I’m hungry now. I must go out,” he thinks.

At the time a thirsty goat comes to the well. He looks at the water and the dog. “Is the water good?” the goat asks. “ Of course. Come down,” the dog says. Then the goat jumps into the well, too. Then dog is happy. He jumps on the goat’s back and jumps out of the well.
