完璧归赵
He Shi Presents a Piece of Jade和氏献璧
One day, a man named He Shi of the State of Chu got a piece of uncarved jade in a hill. He quickly went to present it to King Li of the State of Chu. King Li asked a jade craftsman to appraise it. The jade craftsman said:
一天，有个名叫“和氏”的楚国人，在一座山里得到一块没有雕琢过的玉石，连忙拿去献给楚厉王。厉王叫玉匠鉴定，玉匠说:
“This is a piece of ordinary stone.”
“这是一块普通的石头。”
King Li believed that He Shi had deceived him and felt very angry. He had He Shi's left foot cut off.
厉王认为和氏欺骗了他，非常气愤，就砍掉了和氏的左脚。
After King Li died, King Wu became the king. Again He Shi took this piece of jade to present it to King Wu. King Wu asked a jade craftsman to appraise it. The jade craftsman also said:
厉王死后，武王当了国王。和氏又拿着这块玉石去献给武王。武王叫玉匠鉴定，玉匠说:
“This is a piece of ordinary stone.”
“这是一块普通的石头。”
King Wu believed that He Shi had deceived him and had He Shi's right foot cut off.
武王认为和氏欺骗了他，就砍掉了他的右脚。
After King Wu died, King Wen succeeded to the throne. He Shi sat at the foot of the hill, held the piece of jade in his hands and wept. He wept for three days and three nights until his tears dried up and his eyes bled. When King Wen heard of this, he sent someone to ask He Shi:
武王死后，文王当了国王。和氏抱着那块玉石，坐在那座山的山脚下哭泣，一连哭了三天三夜，哭干了眼泪，连血都哭出来了。文王听说后，就派人去问和氏:
“Many people in the world have had their feet cut off. Why do you weep so broken-heartedly?”
“天下被砍去脚的人很多，你为什么哭得这样伤心呢?”
He Shi answered:
和氏回答说:
“I am not weeping for losing both my feet. I am broken-hearted because the King takes the jade for a piece of stone, and my loyalty for deceit.”
“我不是因为失去双脚而哭泣，而是因为国王把宝石当做石头，把忠诚说成欺骗，所以才这样伤心。”
After King Wen heard this, he sent for a jade craftsman and ordered him to chisel open the jade. Sure enough it was a piece of genuine jade. Thus King Wen of Chu named it “He Shi Jade”.
文王听了和氏的话后，就派人把玉匠找来，命令玉匠把玉石凿开，一看果然是一块真的玉石。楚文王就把这块玉石命名为“和氏璧”。
视石为宝
In ancient times, a man of the State of Song picked up a stone in Linzi. He examined it over and over and regarded it as a treasure. He quickly took it home, wrapped it up in dozens of silk layers, then put it in a leather box. But he still felt uneasy, so he covered the box with dozens of boxes.
古代，宋国有个人在临淄拾到了一块石头。他左看右看，认为这是一件宝贝，急忙拿回家去，用丝绢包了起来。包了一层又一层，一连包了几十层，才把它放进皮匣子。但是，他还不放心，在匣子外面又套上匣子，一连套了几十只。
When a man who could identify treasures heard of this, he went at once to this man and asked to have a look at the treasure.
有个识宝的人，一听到这个消息，就马上到他那里，请求看一看这件宝贝。
To be prudent, this man of Song took a bath, burned incense, cleansed his mind, calmed his mood, and went in for self- cultivation for seven days. Then be put on ceremonial robes, respectfully took out the box, and carefully took the stone out of the box.
那个宋国人，为了慎重起见，熏香沐浴，清心静气，修养了七天，然后穿上大礼服，恭恭敬敬地请出匣子，小心翼翼地把那块石头从匣子里取出来。
When the man who knew about treasures saw it, he nearly burst into laughter, but quickly covered his mouth with his hand. He whispered close to the other's ear:“This is a piece of stone, as worthless as a tile.”
那个识宝的'人看了，差一点儿笑出声来，连忙用手捂住了嘴巴，贴近他的耳朵，轻轻地告诉他说:“这是一块石头，跟瓦片一样一钱不值!”
The man of Song thought the man who knew about treasures was envious of him and trying to cheat him. Much displeased, he said:
宋国人认为这个识宝的人嫉妒他，在骗他，心里很不高兴，他说:
“Merchants always say others' wares are worthless, and doctors always say patients' illnesses are very serious, so that they themselves can make more money. I will not be fooled!”
“做生意的人，总是把别人的货色说得一钱不值;做医生的人，总是把病人的毛病说得非常危险。这都是为了自己可以多赚几个钱。我可不上这个当!”
篇2：掩耳盗铃成语故事双语版
掩耳盗铃成语故事双语版
掩耳盗铃：原为掩耳盗钟。掩：遮盖;盗：偷。把耳朵捂住偷铃铛，以为自己听不见别人就会听不见，比喻自欺欺人。
出处：《吕氏春秋·自知》：“范氏之亡也,百姓有得钟者.欲负而走,则钟大不可负;以椎毁之,钟况然有音.恐人闻之而夺己也,遽掩其耳.恶人闻之,可也;恶己自闻之,悖矣。”
Once upon a time, a man saw a doorbell hanging from someone's door and wanted to steal it.
从前，有个人看见人家大门上挂着一只门铃，就想把它偷来。
But he knew that if he were to steal the bell, it would start ringing the moment his hand touched it. If he were discovered, not only he couldn't get the bell, but he himself might also be caught.
但是，他知道，如果去偷这只门铃，只要手一碰到，就会发出“铃铃铃”的响声。如被人发觉，不但偷不到铃，而且还会被捉住。
He thought this over and said to himself:
他想了想，自言自语地说:
“Why will there be trouble when a bell rings? This is because our ears can hear it. If I cover my ears, I won't be able to hear it. This way I won't be caught.”
“为什么铃响了，就会闯出祸来呢?这是因为耳朵能听见。假如把耳朵捂住，不是听不见铃声了么?这样，就不会被人家捉住了。”
Later, he eventually got an idea. He first covered his own ears, then went on to steal the bell. However, in the end he was still discovered and caught red-handed.
后来，他终于想出了一个办法:先把自己耳朵捂住，再去偷那只门铃。结果，他还是被人当场发现捉住了。

There was a man in the State of Song who had an impatient disposition. Day and night he longed for the seedlings in the field to grow tall and strong quickly. But the seedlings grew very slowly,not as quickly as he hoped.
宋国有个人，是个急性子。他日日夜夜盼望田里的'秧苗快快长高长大。可是，秧苗长得很慢，没有像他所希望的那样长得快。
One day, he hit upon a good idea. He sneaked to the field andpulled each seedling up a little bit from the soil. Seeing that all these edlings in the field were taller than before, he felt very pleased with himself.
有一天，他想出了一个好办法。他自己睁哨地跑到田里，把每一棵秧苗都从泥土里往上拔高了一些。看到田里的秧苗都比原来高了，他心里感到乐滋滋的。
He went home. Though all worn out, he told the members of his family happily:
回到家里，他虽然筋疲力尽，但是非常高兴地告诉家人说:
“I worked for a whole day today. How tired I am! But the seedlings in the field have grown a lot taller.”
“今天，我干了一整天，好累啊!不过，田里的秧苗倒是长高好多了。”
When his son heard that the seedlings had grown taller, he hurried to the field to take a look. Oh, what a mess!Instead of growing taller, the seedlings had all started to wither.
他的儿子听说秧苗长高了，连忙跑到田里去看。一看，可糟啦!不是秧苗长高了，而是秧苗都开始枯萎了。

中国成语故事双语版：因噎废食
In the past, there was a man who had a large appetite. When he ate, he devoured ravenously.
从前，有个人饭量很大，吃起饭来，狼吞虎咽。
Once he wasn't careful enough so that a fishbone got stuck in his throat. The food was blocked in his esophagus, and he could neither swallow nor vomit. So he called a physician, but the physician could do nothing. The people around looked at him in anxiety. Finally, as he couldn't breathe, he died of choking.
一次，他不留神，骨头硬在喉咙里，食物被堵塞在食道里，想咽咽不下，想吐吐不出。于是，他请来医生，医生也没有办法。周围的人看着他，干着急。最后，他因透不过气来而活活噎死了。
Afterwards, someone went so far as to issue a ban: Eating is forbidden as from today for the reason that no one will be choked to death if people give up eating.
事后，有人居然下了一道禁令:从今天起，天下禁止吃饭。理由是:不吃饭，就不会噎死人。
篇5：中国成语故事望洋兴叹双语版
中国成语故事望洋兴叹双语版
When autumn came, all the water in the large and small rivers rose higher and flowed into the Yellow River. The surface of the River at once appeared much wider. On one side of the bank, one couldn't see the cattle and sheep on the opposite side. The River deity Hebo was therefore immensely proud and considered himself the greatest in the world.
一到秋天，大河、小河里的水都涨了起来，流入黄河，河面顿时显得非常宽广。在河岸的这边，一眼望不见对岸的牛羊。黄河的河伯因此得意洋洋，自以为是天下最伟大的了。
Hebo followed the Yellow River to the North Sea. Looking to the east, he could not see the bounds of the sea. Then he looked at himself and felt he was so tiny and insignificant. He sighed and said to Hairuo, the deity of the North Sea:
河伯顺着黄河来到了北海，朝东一望，望不见海的尽头;再看看自己才觉得自己很渺小。他叹了口气，对北海之神海若说:
“As the saying goes, a person who has gained a little learning tends to regard himself as the wisest person under the sky. I am just that kind of person. Seeing how broad and great you are today, I have come to realize how insignificant and ignorant I am. If I didn't meet you, I'm afraid I would always be laughed at by people with knowledge.”
“俗话说得好，有了一点学问，就以为老子天下第一。我就是这种人。今天，我看到你这样宽广、这样伟大，才发觉自己如此渺小、如此无知。如果今天没遇见你，我恐怕永远会被有见识的人所讥笑。”
Hairuo said:
海若说:
“We cannot talk about the sea with a frog at the bottom of a well, for the frog is restricted by its dwelling place; we cannot talk about ice with a small insect of summer, for the insect is restricted by the seasons; we cannot talk about profound learning with superficial persons, for they have too little knowledge. Now you have come out of a small river to the North Sea, seen the greatness of it and realized your own insignificance. Since you have taken such a modest attitude, I can then talk with you about profound learning.”
“我们不能同井底的.青蛙谈海，是因为青蛙受到住处的限制;不能同夏天的小虫谈冰，是因为小虫受到季节的限制;不能同浅薄的人谈论高深的学问，是因为他们的知识太少。现在，你走出小河，来到北海，看到海的伟大，知道了自己的渺小。有了这种谦虚的态度，我就可以和你谈论高深的学问了。”

Handan was the capital of the State of Zhao during the Warring States Period.
邯郸，是战国时期赵国的首都。
A young man in the State of Yan heard that the State of Zhao was more powerful than the State of Yan, so he was much interested in the State of Zhao. Consequently, he crossed over mountain after mountain by himself and got to Handan.
燕国有个青年听说赵国比燕国强大，对赵国很感兴趣。于是，他一个人翻山越岭，来到了邯郸。
Upon arrival at Handan, he felt that the State of Zhao was indeed more stable than the State of Yan. Even the way of walking of the people of the State of Zhao looked better than that of the people of the State of Yan. He made up his mind to learn how the people of the State of Zhao walked in Handan, so that in the future the people of the State of Yan could walk as gracefully as them.
到了邯郸，他觉得赵国确实比燕国安定，连赵国人走路的姿势都比燕国人好看。他决定在邯郸学会赵国人走路，将来让燕国人走路也能像赵国人一样好看。
Yet, that was easier said than done. No matter how hard he tried, he was unable to learn the gait of the people of the State of Zhao. On the contrary, he even forgot completely how he walked in the State of Yan. In the end, he had no alternative but to crawl back from the State of Zhao to the State of Yan.
可是，说起来容易做起来难。这个青年怎么学也没有学会赵国人走路的姿势，反而连自己在燕国时如何走路也忘得干干净净。最后，池没有办法，只好爬着离开赵国回燕国去了。
