Affected by the world financial crisis, business in our company were shrinking recently. We have no orders and we have nothing to do for a whole day while just only browse internets. Everyone seems very busy sitting in front of their computer, franking speaking each of us know that we have nothing decent to do.

 

Sometimes we feel boring even though entertaining on the internet for fun. We feel tired both in metal and physical. Back then, I seized the opportunity to do something I want. I was scanning the economic websites for coming to understand what are happening in the world today essentially in economic view of point and English language websites for learning.

 

Not like to find some website in our country, I managed to find some English language website overseas today. Everything comes to him who waits. I found some literature and forum websites finally. They are mean sense to me for language improvement. Actually for fun and one of my hobbies.

 

There is a best literature website we found today, personally, which titling “the online literature library”. Thousands of classics words are laying there for readers who hunger and thirsty for knowledge. I’m one of them.

 

To my surprise, Aesop fables are not only there but also ranging in the front page of the website. I had read some of them in Chinese language when I was a little boy. Their magic scenes and lively characters had hit me a deeply impression. As time passing by, I nearly forget the classical word, while ten years later of today I found it again. I’ m extra exiting with that.

 

So, with my exiting emotion I recommend the first story of Aesop fable in here for sharing with all my friends who likewise keen to them.

 

The Wolf And The Lamb

WOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him: "Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations." The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.
