Lesson 7 : A Small Little Mouse Can Also Defeat the Elephant
第七课:小老鼠也能战胜大象





一天,一只小老鼠遇到一只大象。大象看了小老鼠一眼,不屑地说:“你这没用的小东西。我一脚就能踩扁你!” 小老鼠听了很不服气,就向大象挑战:“我一定能赢你!” 大象听了,哈哈大笑!

为了争一口气,小老鼠绞尽脑汁想办法取得胜利。一会儿,小老鼠趁大象没有注意,从它的鼻子悄悄钻进去,想让它不能呼吸,制服它。谁知大象打了个大喷嚏,把小老鼠从鼻子里喷出老远。小老鼠跌坐在地,全身疼痛,领教了大象的厉害。大象得意洋洋地走了。

第二天,大象一不小心落入了猎人的巨网中,拼命挣扎,还是无法逃脱。小老鼠看见了,心想这是我报仇的好机会! 不如我乘机咬这支可恶的大象一口,让它尝一尝我老鼠的厉害。正当老鼠张口想咬,它却于心不忍。最后,它决定用锋利的牙齿把网咬破,救出大象。大象逃出巨网后,和小老鼠成为朋友,并对它说:“你赢了!”

就象小老鼠一样,每个人都有他的用处。小人物也有他的小贡献,千万不要小看自己。平凡的人也一样有成功的机会!

One day, a little mouse met an elephant. The elephant looked down at the little mouse and teased, "What an useless little thing you are ! I can simply step on you and crush you into a pancake !" The little mouse was furious and challenged the elephant, "I ​​can win you too ! " The elephant simply roared into laughter.

To prove its point, the little mouse racked its brain trying to find a certain way to win the elephant. A little while later, when the elephant was not paying attention, the little mouse quickly dashed into the nostril of the elephant, trying to stop it from breathing and subduing it. The elephant sneezed forcefully and sent the little mouse flying high into the sky. The little mouse fell heavily to the ground with a loud “thud”. Its body ached terribly and it experienced the seemingly undefeatable power of the elephant.  The elephant walked away proudly with its head in the air.

The next day, the elephant accidentally fell into the giant net of the hunter. It struggled violently trying to escape but to no avail. The little mouse saw what happened and thought to itself,What a good opportunity to seek revenge ! I can give this nasty elephant a big bite and let it experiencing my power !”  Though the little mouse was eager to win the elephant, it felt sorry for the elephant. Finally, it decided to use its sharp teeth to bite through the net to rescue the elephant.  After escaping from the giant net, the elephant made friends with the little mouse and said, "You've won!"

Just like the little mice, everyone has his/her worthiness. No matter what his/her social status or position in the organisation, everyone can make that little contribution. Do not underestimate yourself. Ordinary people can have their chance of success too !

Lesson 6 : Use Your Strengths and Run like the Hare.  
第六课: 善加利用自己的长处,像野兔一样奔跑。




一只小老虎,第一次自己上山寻找猎物。它在不远的草丛中发现了一只野兔,赶忙跑前去。野兔受到惊吓,马上往山上奔去。小老虎心想:“这只笨野兔拼命跑上山,最后会跑得筋疲力尽,我就一定能抓到它。”于是,小老虎便在后面不停追赶野兔。可是野兔却越跑越快,最后无影无踪,消失在山上。

小老虎追了半天,又累又饿却没抓到野兔,便垂头丧气地回家。虎妈妈听了小老虎的叙述,微笑着说:“你追错方向了!野兔的前腿短,后腿长,有利于向高处奔跑。如果它从高处向低处奔跑,后腿无法使力,就会很容易栽跟斗,这样追它就容易得多了。”

我们也要像野兔一样,善加利用自己的长处,往上奔跑,飞跃困难,取得成功。

Once upon a time, a young tiger went up the mountain for its first hunting trial. It saw a hare in the bushes nearby, and ran after it quickly. Frightened by the sudden attack, the hare immediately ran uphill. Determined to catch the hare, the young tiger thought, "By running desperately up the hill, this stupid hare will eventually get itself exhausted and I will be able to catch with ease." The tiger ran after the hare closely but the hare ran even faster, and eventually disappeared in the mountain terrain.


After chasing the hare for a long distance, the young tiger was tired and hungry. It failed to catch the hare, and went home sadly. After knowing the first encounter of the young tiger, the mother tiger smiled and said, "You have chased the hare in the wrong direction! The hare, with its short front legs and long hind legs, has an advantage in running upwards. It will be easier to catch the hare downhill as it will be unable to use the power of its long hind legs, causing it to tumble easily.”  

Just like the hare, we should make good use of our strengths to improve ourselves, overcome obstacles ahead and strive towards greater success.

Lesson 5 : Always Be Ready !
第五课:随时准备好 !


















一天,
小山羊和骆驼一起吃草。小山羊津津有味地吃着青草,却看见骆驼在不停地嚼干草。小山羊觉得很奇怪,就问骆驼:“骆驼伯伯,你为什么不吃鲜嫩的青草,却吃味道不好的干草呢?”

骆驼笑着说:“这是因为主人随时会要我在沙漠行走。沙漠里没草没水,而吃干草肚子比较不会饿。明白了吗?” 小山羊点点头:“我明白了,原来您是为了随时接到出发的任务而准备。”

我们也要像骆驼一样,不断增强自己的能力,随时为人生旅途的新任务和挑战做好准备,以最好的表现,取得到更大的成功。


One day, a little goat was eating grass with a camel. While the little goat was enjoying the fresh and green grass, the camel was eating the dry and tasteless hay. Curiously, the little goat asked, “Mr. Camel, why are you eating the dry and tasteless hay instead of the fresh and green grass ?”

“Oh...It is because I may be required to cross the desert anytime. There is little water and food available in the desert. Hay will fill my stomach for a longer period of time. Do you understand ?”  replied the camel smilingly. The little goat nodded, “Oh I see. You are always ready and prepared for mission !”

Just like the camel, we should always upgrade our capabilities, be prepared for new opportunities and challenges, and ready to achieve greater success at work and in life !

Lesson 4 : The Success Story of a Little Ant - Trying a New Path to Greater Success 第四课:小工蚁成功的故事- 勇于寻找属于自己成功的机会




On one hot afternoon, a group of strong and mighty ants found a big piece of bone under a tree by the riverside. They immediately rushed forward and tried their best biting, tearing, pulling and dragging it using their strong teeth and muscles. They pushed and shoved for the best part of the bone. Soon, more ants came and the entire bone was swarmed by the mighty ants.

At this moment, a small little ant came by. Though it went around and tried its very best to squeeze through the crowd, the big bone was simply beyond its reach. Sadly and reluctantly, it decided to look elsewhere. Not long later, to its surprise, it found a small juicy piece of meat at a nearby tree. With great joy, it brought back its surprise ‘finding’ home.

While everyone was busy fighting over the big piece of bone, no one actually noticed the small juicy piece of meat. As the small little ant was willing to try and search for other opportunities, it found its success. 

There are plenty of opportunities to succeed in life. Whatever everyone is busy pursuing may not be the best. Do try a new path to find your greater success in life.




一天炎热的下午,一群高头大马身强力壮的工蚁,在河边树下发现了一块大骨头。他们马上冲上前去,围住大骨头。有的拼命咬啊,有的死命拽啊,有的尽力拉啊,有的出力拖啊大家忙得团团转,费尽力气想把这战利品搬回家。不一会儿,更多的工蚁也加入,把整块大骨头挤得满满的。
这时,一只小工蚁也来到。他绕大骨头走了一圈,用尽力气,却怎样都挤不进去。他只好默默地离开,到别处去找机会。不久,他在河边不远的另一个棵树下发现了一小块肥肉!它很高兴地把这一小块肥肉搬回家了。
原来,正当工蚁们全神贯注地忙着搬大骨头时,谁也没发现就在附近的美味小肥肉。小工蚁愿意去尝试寻找, 让他得到了属于自己的小肥肉。这世界也一样,成功的机会很多。有时很多人争先恐后抢着要的未必是最好的。不妨给自己一个机会,选择尝试寻找属于自己的小肥肉。
