带翻译的英文励志故事：

惊弓之鸟

A bird startled by the mere

twang of a bow-string

During the time of the Warring States (475-221 BC)

，

there

lived

a

well-known

archer

named

Geng

Ying

whose

art

in

shooting was excelled by none at his time.

One day, as he was standing by the side of the King of Wei,

a flock of swan geese were flying over. With confidence, Geng

Ying

said

to

the

king,

"The

twang

of

my

bow-string

might bring down a bird." The King doubted much. Just

then a solitary swan goose appeared, low and slow in its flight,

sad

and

dolorous

in

its

cry.

Instantly

Geng

Ying

bended

his

bow and forcibly pulled the bowstring. Twang! High up went

he

shrilling

sound

into

the

air

and

down

fell

the

bird

to

the

ground. The king admired with bewilderment. Gang Ying then

explained: "The bird was flying low and slow, because it

was already hurt; it was crying in a bitter tone, because it had

lost

its

companions.

Due

to

the fact that

it

was

already

hurt

1

and

sad

at

heart,

the

twang

of

my

strong

bow,

that

birds

dreaded most, startled it. The shrilling sound made its heart

beat fast, its wings weak, its balance uneven. Thus it fell down

just

as

commonly

as

a

man

drops

his

chop-sticks,

at

the

thunder-stroke,

at

a

dinner

table."

Henceforth

comes

the

idiom

"A

bird

startled

by

the

mere

twang

of

a

bow-string",

illustrating

a

case

where

a

man

who

had

been previously and repeatedly frightened became numb and

stupefied by a new thing of the same nature not knowing how

to face the new situation.

惊弓之鸟

战国时期，有个杰出的弓箭 手，叫做更赢。他的射箭本领在当时

可称是举世无双。有一天，

他和魏王并肩站着，天空中忽然飞过一群

鸿雁。更赢很自信的对魏王说：

"

我可以用弓声就把飞鸟给打

下来。

"

魏王很怀疑。正在那是，一只孤雁很低很慢的飞过。

鸣声凄惨。更赢见了，就张着弓，扣着弦，砰的一声，直入云宵。那

孤雁果然应声落地。魏王惊叹之余，不明白这是怎么回事。更赢解释

说：

"

那孤雁飞得低且慢，因为它已经受过伤

;

它鸣叫的声音悲

而哀，因为它离了群。身伤心碎，使它心跳加速 ，两翼无力，体重失

去平衡，正如人们吃饭时，

突然听见雷声， 筷子落地的情况一样自然

而平常。

后 人根据上面的故事，做成了

"

惊弓之鸟

"

这个成

2

语，形容先前多次受过惊吓的人，忽然遇到同样可怕的事物，就吓得

魂飞魄散，惊惶失措，不知如何去应付新的环境。

A

broken

mirror

joined

together

During

the

Southern

and

Northern

Dynasties

(420-589),

there

lived

a

beautiful,

intelligent

princess

name

Lechang

in

the

State

Chen.

She

and

her

husband

Xu

Deyan

loved

each

other

dearly. But before long their country

was

in danger

of

being

invaded

by

the

troops

of

the

Sui

Dynasty.

Princess

Lechang

and

Xu

Deyan

had

a

premonition

that

their

county

would

be

occupied

by

the

invaders

and

they

would

have

to

leave

the

palace

and

go

into

exile.

During

the

chaos

they

might lose touch with each other. They broke a bronze mirror,

a symbol of the unity of husband and wife into two parts and

each of them kept a half. They aGREed that each would take

their half of the mirror to the fair during the Lantern Festival,

which is on the 15th day of the first Lunar month, in the hope

that would meet again. When they were united the two halves

would join together. Soon their premonition came true. During

the chaos of war, the princess lost touch with her husband was

taken

to

a

powerful

minister

Yang

Su's

house

and

was

made his mistress.
