小学三年级英语故事：The country maid and her milk

A country maid was walking along with a can of milk upon her head, when she fell into the following train of reflections.

"The money for which I shall sell this milk will enable me to increase my stock of eggs to three hundred. These eggs, allowing for what may prove addle(腐坏的，糊涂的) , and what may be destroyed by vermin(害虫，歹徒) , will produce at least two hundred and fifty chickens. The chickens will be fit to carry to market just at the time when poultry(家禽) is always dear; so that by the new year I cannot fail of having money enough to purchase a new gown(长袍，礼服) . Green-let me consider-yes, green becomes my complexion best, and green it shall be. In this dress I will go to the fair, where all young fellows will strive to have me for a parter; but no-I shall refuse every one of them, and with a disdainful(轻蔑的，鄙视的) toss turn from them."

Transported with this idea, she could not forbear(忍耐克制) acting with her head the thought that passed in her mind, when down came the can of milk! And all her imaginary happiness vanished in a moment.

Have you not heard of the frog that lived in a shallow well? It said to a turtle(海龟) that lived in the East Sea, "I am so happy! When I go out, I jump about on the railing(栏杆，扶手) beside the mouth of the well. When I come home, I rest in the holes on the broken wall of the well. If I jump into the water, it comes up to my armpits(腋窝) and holds up my cheeks. If I walk in the mud, it covers up my feet. I look around at the wriggly(蠕动地，回避地) worms, crabs and tadpoles(蝌蚪) , and none of them can compare with me. Moreover, I am lord of thistrough(水槽) of water and I stand up tall in this shallow well. My happiness is full. My dear sir, why don't you come often and look around my place?"

Before the turtle from the East Sea could get its left foot in the well, its right knee got stuck. Ithesitated(踌躇，犹豫) and retreated. The turtle told the frog about the East Sea.

"Even a distance of a thousand li cannot give you an idea of the sea's width; even a height of a thousand ren cannot give you an idea of its depth. In the time of King Yu of the Xia dynasty, there were floods nine years out of ten, but the waters in the sea did not increase. ln the time of King Tang of the Shang dynasty there were droughts(干旱) seven years out of eight, but the waters in the sea did not decrease. The sea does not change along with the passage of time and its level does not rise or fall according to the amount of rain that falls. The greatest happiness is to live in the East Sea."

After listening to these words, the frog of the shallow well was shocked into realization of his own insignificance and became very ill at ease(不安的，拘束的) .
