英语翻译
Once there was a boy.He loved sweets very much.He always asked his father for sweets.
The boy's father thought hard about how to stop the child from asking for so many sweets.A great manlived nearby.The boy's father decided to take the boy to him.He might be able to make the child give up sweets.
So they went to the great man.The father asked the great man to help him.But the great man liked sweets himself.He told the father to bring his son back after a month.
During the month,the great man tried to give up eating sweets.At last he did it.When the boy and his father returned after a month,the great man had a talk with the boy.From then on,the boy did not ask for sweets any more.
The boy's father felt surprised,“Why didn't you ask my son to give up sweets when we came to you a month ago?”The man answered,“How could I ask a boy to give up sweets when I loved sweets myself?In the last month I gave up eating sweets.”
A person's example is always stronger than words.We should not ask others to do what we can't do ourselves
曾经有个男孩,他非常喜欢吃糖,总是嚷着叫他爸爸给糖他.
他爸爸对于怎样阻止自己孩子继续要糖这个做法非常困扰.正好他家附近住了一个智者,于是孩子的爸爸决定把孩子带去那里,说不定那智者能帮忙让孩子不再吃糖.
于是他们就去了那智者那里.爸爸请求智者帮他忙,但是那智者本身就很喜欢吃糖果.智者说:你一个月再来把你儿子带来吧.
在那一个月里,智者尝试戒糖,并且最终他做到了.一个月后,那爸爸带着他儿子回来,智者跟那男孩谈了片刻.自此以后,那男孩不再嚷着他爸爸让他给糖了.
那孩子的爸爸非常讶异,问智者:“为什么一个月前你不劝说我孩子戒糖呢?”
智者答:当我自己是如此热爱吃糖的时候我怎么能够去劝你孩子放弃糖果呢?但是在接下来的那一个月,我成功地戒掉了,所以才能去劝你孩子.”
以身作则往往比通篇道理来得更有说服力.已所不欲,勿施于人.
