下面是幾則寓言小故事：

1. 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.

2.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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

2. 考察主旨大意題。兩個朋友一起旅行，突然一只熊出現(xiàn)準備攻擊他們，其中一人立刻拋下了朋友跑到了樹上，另一人則躺在地上裝死，因為熊不會碰死人，于是熊走了，這時樹上的朋友下來詢問熊對他說了什么，裝死的人說，不要和在危險關(guān)頭拋棄你的朋友一起旅行。故選C。意為：患難見真情。

3. 考察主旨大意題。一個國王馴養(yǎng)了一群會跳舞的猴子，這些猴子表現(xiàn)非常棒，因此錦衣玉食，收到了各種掌聲。一次偶然的表演中，一個大臣在這些猴子跳舞時扔下了一把堅果。這些猴子為了搶奪堅果，不惜互相爭斗。最后這場表演變成了一個笑話。故選A。意為：事情往往不是你看見的那個樣子。

4. 考察主旨大意題。一只公雞正昂首闊步走在庭院里，忽然看見稻草中什么東西閃閃發(fā)光，于是迅速從稻草中把它刨了出來，那是一顆不知什么時候遺落的珍珠，公雞于是說道：對有些人而言那是珍寶，對我而言，我寧愿它是一顆麥粒。這則寓言意在表明珍貴的東西之所以珍貴，是擁有它的人懂得它的價值。故選F。意為：只有懂得價值的人才會珍惜寶物。

5. 一個老漢在彌留之際，想告訴他的兒子們一些遺言。于是召集了他的兒子們，讓仆人拿來一束棒子，對大兒子說，弄斷它，大兒子試了試失敗了，其他兒子也一一試過，卻都失敗了。于是老漢讓兒子沒人拿一根木棒，這樣就能輕易掰斷它了。這則寓言告訴我們團結(jié)合作的力量是不可估量的。故選E。意為：團結(jié)就是力量。
