When the time came for him to die he called them to his bed and said, “Dear children, I have thought of something that I will reveal to you. The one of you is the laziest shall become king after me.”
The oldest one said, “Father, then the kingdom belongs to me, for I am so lazy that whenever I lie down to sleep, and a drop falls into my eyes, I will not e
ven close them so that I can fall asleep.”
The second one said, “Father, the kingdom belongs to me, for I am so lazy that when I am sitting by the fire warming myself, I would rather let my heels burn up than to pull my legs back.”
The third one said, “Father, the kingdom is mine, for I am so lazy that if I were going to be hanged and already had the rope around my neck, and someone put into my hand a sharp knife with which to cut the rope, I would let myself be hanged rather than to lift my hand up to the rope.”
When the father heard this he said, “You have taken it the farthest and shall be king.”

篇5:儿童简短英文小故事
An Archer, hunting in the woods, was so successful with his arrows that he killed many of the wild animals. This frightened the rest so much that they ran into the densest part of the bushes to hide. At last the Tiger stood up, and pretending to be very brave, told the other animals not to be afraid anymore, but to rely on his courage, and he would attack the enemy on his own. While he was talking, and lashing his tail and tearing at the ground with his claws to impress the others, an arrow came and pierced his ribs. The Tiger howled with pain.
While he was trying to draw out the arrow with his teeth the Fox went up to him and asked, in surprise, whoever had the strength and courage to wound such a brave and mighty beast as the Tiger?
“Nay,” said the Tiger, “I misjudged my enemy. It was that unbeatable man over there!”

眼见为实
One day the king of animals asked a cat to see how his palace was built. After a few hours, the little cat came back and said to the tiger, “Oh, your palace is very large, tall and beautiful. ”Several days later the tiger asked a pig to see it. He said, “Go and see how my palace is built. ”But when the pig came back, he said to the tiger, “My dear king, I thought your palace is beautiful, but it suits yourself only. ”
The tiger was very surprised when he heard it. “Why are the cat’s and the pig’s answers not the same? ”he said to himself. He then asked a camel to go to have a look. Before long the camel ran back out of breath and said to the tiger, “Oh, your palace is too small for you to live in, my king. ”
The king became very angry when he heard what the camel said. He said to the animals angrily, “Maybe somebody of you tell lies. Three people have three ideas. I want to kill you. ”Just at the moment, a fox came out to stop the tiger from doing that. He asked the tiger himself to go to see it before killing them.
After the tiger saw the palace himself, he thought that their answers were all right. He said to the animals, “To see with one’s own eyes is more important than only to hear others. ”

一天,百兽之王让一只小猫去看看他的宫殿建造得怎么样。几个小时之后,小猫回来了,对老虎说:“您的宫殿非常大,又高又漂亮。”几天后,老虎又让一只猪去看看。他说:“去看看我的宫殿建造得如何。”但是,猪回来之后却对老虎说:“亲爱的国王陛下,虽然您的宫殿很漂亮,但是它只容得下您自己。”
老虎听到这些话感到很吃惊。“为什么猫和猪说的话不一样呢?”老虎自语着。然后他又让一头骆驼去看一看。骆驼很快便气喘吁吁地跑回来了,它对老虎说:“我的国王,您的宫殿对于您来说,实在是太小了,都没法住。”当老虎听到骆驼所说的话时,变得非常生气。他生气地对动物们说:“你们三个人中有人说谎了,三个人有三个看法。我要处死你们。”就在这时,一只狐狸过来阻止老虎那样做。他请求老虎在杀他们之前,自己亲自去看看。
老虎亲自看完宫殿后,认为他们的答案都是对的。他对动物们说:“眼见为实,耳听为虚。”
聪明的兔子
The wolf and the fox want to eat the rabbit, but it wasn't easy to catch him.
One day the wolf says to the fox, “You go home and lie in bed. I'll tell the rabbit that you are dead. When he comes to look at you, you can jump up and catch him.” That's a good idea,“ says the fox.
The fox goes home at once. The wolf goes to the rabbit's house and knocked at the door. ”Who is it?“ asks the rabbit. ”It's the wolf. I come to tell you that the fox is dead.“ Then the wolf goes away.
The rabbit goes to the fox's house. He looked in through the window and sees the fox lying in bed with his eyes closed. He thinks, ”Is the fox really dead or is he pretending to be dead? If he's not dead, he'll catch me when I go near him.“ so he said, ”The wolf says that the fox is dead. But he doesn't look like a dead fox. The mouth of a dead fox is always open.“ When the fox hears this, he thinks, ”I'll show him that I'm dead.“ So he opened his mouth.
The rabbit knows that the fox isn't dead, and he rans away quickly.
译文
狼和狐狸想要吃掉兔子,但是这只兔子太难抓到了。
一天,狼对狐狸说:“你回家假装躺在床上。我去告诉兔子你已经死了。当他来看你的时候,你就可以跳起来抓住他了。”“真是个好主意!”狐狸说。
于是他立刻回到家。狼去兔子的房前敲了敲门,“是谁啊?”兔子问道。“狼,我是来告诉你狐狸已经死了。”说完狼就走开了。
兔子去狐狸家看情况。他通过狐狸家的窗户看到闭着眼睛的狐狸躺在床上。他想,狐狸是真的死了,还是在假装呢?如果他没有死,那么我走近他就会被他抓住。于是他说:“狼说狐狸死了。但是他看起来并不像死掉了呀。死去的狐狸通常都是张着嘴的。”狐狸听到这些话就想:我得证明自己是真的死了。于是他张开了嘴巴。
这时兔子知道狐狸并没有死,他就以最快的速度跑开啦。
