中國(guó)成語(yǔ)寓言故事35:Covering One's Ears to Steal a Bell掩耳盜鈴(雙語(yǔ))
Once upon a time, a man saw a doorbell hanging from someone's door and wanted to steal it.
從前，有個(gè)人看見人家大門上掛著一只門鈴，就想把它偷來(lái)。
But he knew that if he were to steal the bell, it would start ringing the moment his hand touched it. If he were discovered, not only he couldn't get the bell, but he himself might also be caught.
但是，他知道，如果去偷這只門鈴，只要手一碰到，就會(huì)發(fā)出“鈴鈴鈴”的響聲。如被人發(fā)覺(jué)，不但偷不到鈴，而且還會(huì)被捉住。
He thought this over and said to himself:
他想了想，自言自語(yǔ)地說(shuō):
"Why will there be trouble when a bell rings? This is because our ears can hear it. If I cover my ears, I won't be able to hear it. This way I won't be caught."
“為什么鈴響了，就會(huì)闖出禍來(lái)呢?這是因?yàn)槎淠苈犚姟＜偃绨讯湮孀。皇锹牪灰娾徛暳嗣?這樣，就不會(huì)被人家捉住了。”
Later, he eventually got an idea. He first covered his own ears, then went on to steal the bell. However, in the end he was still discovered and caught red-handed.
后來(lái)，他終于想出了一個(gè)辦法:先把自己耳朵捂住，再去偷那只門鈴。結(jié)果，他還是被人當(dāng)場(chǎng)發(fā)現(xiàn)捉住了。（編者注：如果喜歡本文章可以點(diǎn)擊文章右上方的關(guān)注或者右下角的贊哦！感謝各位讀者。）
