牧羊人和山羊寓言故事
有一天,牧羊人赶着羊群回到羊圈里,其中有一只山羊失散了,并且拒绝回到羊群中。牧羊人费了好长时间叫她回来,既大声喊叫,又冲她吹口哨,但是山羊根本没注意到他。于是,牧羊人只得冲她扔了一块石头,正巧打断了山羊的一只羊角。惊慌中,牧羊人肯求山羊不要告诉主人,可山羊却说:“你这个愚蠢的家伙,即使我不说,我的角也会告诉他事实呀。”

THE GOATHERD AND THE GOAT
A Goatherd was one day gathering his flock to return to the fold,when one of his goats strayed and refused to join the rest.He tried for a long time to get her to return by calling and whistling to her,but the Goat took no notice of him at all;SO at last he threw a stone at her and broke one of her horns.In dismay,he begged her not to tell his master:but she replied,“You silly fellow,my horn would cry aloud even if I held my tongue.”
It’s no use trying to hide what can’t be hidden.
