But Im very sorry my legs are very thin and ugly, said he to himself. Just then he saw a lion coming toward him. He ran away as fast as fast as he could, and the lion could not catch him. Oh, how thankful I am for my good, long legs ! These legs have saved my life,? he said. But when he came to a thick wood, his antlers caught in the branches of a tree. He tried to free himself from the branches, but he could not. At last the lion found the stag and caught him, and killed him. ? 37.The Father and His Sons（父親和他的兒子們） A father had three sons, but the brothers were always quarreling. Their father tried to make them good fiends, and called all his sons to him. He showed them three sticks and said, “I want to talk to you. Take these sticks and tie them together. Then try to break the bundle of sticks.” The oldest son tried with all his strength but he could not break it. Then the other two did the same, but neither of them could break it. “Now,” said the father, “untie the bundle and each of you take one stick and try to break it.” Either of them could break the stick easily. Then the father said, “My sons, when the sticks are bound together, it is very strong, and you cannot break it. But when they are united, you can break each stick easily. When you work together and help one another, you can become as strong as the bundle. But if you only quarrel and do not stand together, you will be broken as easily as these sticks.” 一个父亲有三个儿子，但是他们总是吵架。父亲想让他们成为很好的朋友，并把他的儿子们都叫来。他给他们三根说，“我想和你谈谈。把这些棍子绑在一起。然后设法把这捆棍子。”大儿子试着用他所有的力量，但他没能打破它。然后其他两个是相同的，但他们都没能打破它。“现在，”父亲说，“解开这捆棍子，每人各拿一根棍子，并尝试打破它。”或者他们可以打破棍子很容易。然后父亲说，“我的儿子，当棍子绑在一起时，是很强的，你不能打破它。但当他们团结，你可以很容易地把它们折断。当你们在一起工作，互相帮助，你可以成为强大的束。但如果你只是吵架而不站在一起，你会很容易的打败。” 英语短文欣赏 乐观思想Positive Thoughts It is not easy to think positive thoughts when the world around you appea
