下面是几则寓言小故事: An ant went to the bank of a river to quench its thirst, and being carried away by the rush of the stream, was on the point of drowning. A dove sitting on a tree overhanging the water plucked a leaf and let it fall into the stream close to her. The ant climbed onto it and floated in safety to the bank. Shortly afterwards a bird catcher came and stood under the tree, aiming at the dove. The ant, perceiving his design, stung him in the foot. In pain the bird catcher shouted, and the noise made the dove take wing.
Two men were travelling together, when a bear suddenly met them on their path. One of them climbed up quickly into a tree and hid himself in the branches. The other, seeing that he must be attacked, fell flat on the ground, and when the bear came up and felt him with his snout, and smelt him all over, he held his breath, and pretended to be dead as much as he could. The bear soon left him, for he will not touch a dead body. When he disappeared, the other traveler descended from the tree, and asked his friend what it was the bear had whispered in his ear. ―He gave me this advice, his companion replied. ―Never travel with a friend who deserts you at the approach of danger.
A prince had some monkeys trained to dance. Being naturally good at learning, they showed themselves excellent pupils, and in their rich clothes and masks, they danced as well as any of the courtiers. Their performance was often repeated with great applause, till on one occasion a courtier, bent on mischief, took from his pocket a handful of nuts and threw them upon the stage. The monkeys at the sight of the nuts forgot their dancing and became (as indeed they were) monkeys instead of actors. Pulling off their masks and tearing their robes, they fought with one another for the nuts. The dancing spectacle thus came to an end in the laughter and ridicule of the audience.
A cock was once strutting up and down the farmyard among the hens when suddenly he noticed something shining in the straw. "Ho! Ho!" said he, "that’s for me," and soon rooted it out from beneath the straw. It turned out to be a pearl that by some chance had been lost in the yard. ―You may be a treasure, signed the cock, ―to man, but for me I would rather have a single barley-corn.
An old man on the point of death summoned his sons around him to give them some parting advice. He ordered his servants to bring in a bunch of sticks, and said to his eldest son: "Break it." The son tried hard, but with all his efforts was unable to break the bundle. The other sons also tried, but none of them was successful. ―Untie it, said the father, ―and each of you take a stick. When they had done so, he called out to them: ―Now, break, and each stick was easily broken.

Dear Daddy, you stepped into my life years ago, and became my dad, a man who raised three fatherless kids and adopted(领养) another. It didn’t matter to you or us whether we were your biological kids or not—you are our dad! You did everything humanly possible for us, and you managed to have taken care of Mom, who has been sick, and the grandkids as well. Lessons we learned are love and compassion and kindness…We love you dearly. |
My dad taught me how to play basketball. He taught me how to pivot, throw three pointers, and do lay-ups and dunks. Now I am a pro (职业球员) at basketball. When I played basketball in December, I was a good guard. Although I sometimes didn’t play very well and my team lost the game, my dad always encouraged me never to lose heart. Now I have a dream that when I grow up I can play basketball on the Celtics. I love my dad! |

The most important thing that my dad ever taught me was “Stick to it. Never do anything halfway”. He always told me that by doing your very best, you prove your ability, commitment and character. This advice was what I always kept in mind, whether I was removing the snow from the driveway, helping do the volunteer work in the nursing house or completing my last course in graduate school. “It shows what kind of person you are,” my dad would say. “People will remember and respect you for that.” I do remember and respect my dad’s advice, which will guide me to do anything. |
My dad has taught me many things. He has taught me love, hope, respect, discipline and the value of hard work. He has taught me never to be afraid, but when I am, his arms are always open for me to run into. He has taught me the value of a job well done. He has taught me how to ride a bike, then to drive a car. He always tells me that he believes in me and that I can manage to deal with the things around me. He is teaching me how to grow up but not grow apart. My dad is always there for me, and he has told me that he always will be. |

My dad teaches me throughout my lifetime to present day that family is first. He says, “As the father, you should put your own wants and needs aside to make sure that your wife and children have the best that life has to offer.” He did this without failing every day of our lives, without words or empty promises; instead, through sleepless nights and tireless actions always with a smile. His words always remind me what I should do for the family. I am proud to be his son. I love you, Dad. |
