我们常用杀鸡取卵来比喻贪图眼前利益而不顾长远利益。下面是这故事跟杀鸡取卵差不多,只不过人家杀的是鹅。
The Goose with the Golden EggsOnce upon a time, there lived a farmer in a small town. The farmer worked hard on his farm. One day, a weird-looking goose came to the farm.
Tying up the goose, the farmer was thinking, 'I should cook this goose for breakfast in the morning.' The next day, the farmer approached the goose to cook it.
However, the farmer was startled. The goose had laid a golden egg. "How did the goose that lays golden eggs come to me?" The farmer was so happy that he danced cheerfully.
The farmer was able to get a golden egg every morning. In the market, everybody loved to buy the golden eggs. Getting weary of working, the farmer did not want to farm.
'Perhaps, there must be an enormous amount of gold in that goose's stomach. Although it looks like an ordinary goose, it lays golden eggs.' The farmer was determined to open the goose's stomach. He wanted to be rich instantly rather than gradually.
The farmer cut the goose's stomach open with scissors. But, he found nothing but just what any other goose would have. "Why! How could this be?" regretted the farmer, but it was no use. The goose was already dead.
参考翻译
从前,在一个小镇上住着一个农民。农夫在农场辛勤劳动。有一天,一只奇怪的'鹅来到农场。
农夫把鹅捆起来,心里想:“我早上要把这只鹅当早餐吃。”第二天,农夫走近鹅把它煮了。
然而,农夫惊呆了。这只鹅已经下了一个金蛋。”那只放金蛋的鹅是怎么来找我的?”农夫高兴得手舞足蹈。
农夫每天早上都能得到一个金蛋。在市场上,每个人都喜欢买金蛋。厌倦了工作,农夫不想耕种。
也许,那只鹅的胃里一定有大量的金子。虽然它看起来像一只普通的鹅,但它却下了金蛋。他想立即致富而不是逐渐致富。
农夫用剪刀把鹅的肚子切开。但是,他什么也没找到,只是别的鹅都会有的。”为什么!怎么会这样呢?”农夫很后悔,但没有用。那只鹅已经死了。
