:有一只乌鸦不好看,但特别聪明,智慧过人。一天,它干完活又累又渴,真想喝水。忽然,它看一只大水罐,满心欢喜。它飞到水罐旁,一看罐里的水不多了,嘴探进去也喝不到,怎么办呢?它使劲地用身体撞水罐,又用翅膀推水罐,想把水罐弄倒,好喝水。可是水罐又大又重,它的力量太小了,弄不倒这罐子。忽然,它急中生智,可以叼些石子放到罐里,石子多了,罐子里的水不就升高了吗?这么想,就这么做了,它不厌其烦地一块一块地用嘴叼石子,功夫不负用功的乌鸦,终于放了很多石子,水上升了,它就喝到了水。它痛痛快快地喝了个够,解了渴。这是原文:A Crow, half-dead with thirst, came upon a Pitcher which had once been full of water; but when THE Crow put its beak into the mouth of the Pitcher he found that only very little water was left in it, and that he could not reach far enough down to get at it. He tried, and he tried, but at last had to give up in despair. Then a thought came to him, and he took a pebble and dropped it into the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped it into the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped that into the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped that into the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped that into the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped that into the Pitcher. At last, at last, he saw the water mount up near him, and after casting in a few more pebbles he was able to quench his thirst and save his life.
