Aesops FablesA Fisherman cast his net into the sea,andwhen he drew it up again it contained nothingbut a single Sprat that begged to be put backinto the water.渔夫将网撒向大海，当他再次收网时，只看到一条翻腾着想回大海里去的小鲱鱼。I m only a little fish now,it said,but I shallgrow big one day,and then if you come andcatch me again I shall be of some use to you.“我只是一条小鱼，”可怜的小鱼说，“但是我总有一天会长大，等我长大后，你再来抓我，那时才会对你更有好处。”But the Fisherman replied,Oh,no,I shallkeep you now Ive got you:if I put you back,should I ever see you again?Not likely!然而，渔夫却回答说：“不行，我现在就要留下你来，如果我放你回去，还会再看到你吗？绝对不会了！”
