导读开始


The Lion's Share

The Lion went once a-hunting along with the Fox, the Jackal, and the Wolf. They hunted and they hunted till at last they surprised a Stag, and soon took its life. Then came the question how the spoil should be divided. "Quarter me this Stag," roared the Lion; so the other animals skinned it and cut it into four parts. Then the Lion took his stand in front of the carcass and pronounced judgment: The first quarter is for me in my capacity as King of Beasts; the second is mine as arbiter; another share comes to me for my part in the chase; and as for the fourth quarter, well, as for that, I should like to see which of you will dare to lay a paw upon it."

"Humph," grumbled the Fox as he walked away with his tail between his legs; but he spoke in a low growl ."You may share the labours of the great, but you will not share the spoil."


jackal /ˈdʒæk.ɔːl/ : n. 豺狼

stag /stæɡ/: n. 雄鹿

carcass /ˈkɑː.kəs/:n. 残骸,尸体

growl /ɡraʊl/: n. 吠声

中文概要


一伙食物链顶端的捕食者们去打猎,结果在分配猎物的时候被狮子抢了个独一份。其他伙伴们只能灰溜溜地离开了,还留下了一句无奈的抱怨,或者说是深刻的反省。
