Story 106 The Wolf and the Lamb故事106 狼和小羊
Once upon a time, a wolf was lapping at a stream. When he looked up, he saw a lamb drinking a little lower down.
从前，一只狼在溪流喝水，看到一只小羊在下游喝水。
"There’s my supper," he thought. "I will find some excuse to catch it."
“那是我的晚餐，”狼想，“我要找一个借口吃掉他。”
Then he called out to the lamb, "How dare you mud the water?"
于是，他恶狠狠地对小羊说：“你怎么敢搅浑了我的水？”
"No, master," said the lamb. "I cannot muddle your water because it runs down from you to me."
“我没有，先生，”小羊回答说，“我在下游喝水，怎么能搅浑浊你喝的水呢？”
"Well, then," said the wolf. "Why did you call me bad names this time last year?"
“那么，”狼见此计不成，又说道，“你去年的今天为什么说我的坏话？”
"It was impossible," said the lamb. "I am only six months old."
“不可能，”小羊说，“我现在才只有六个月大。”
"I don’t care," shouted the wolf. "If it was not you, it must be your father."
“我不管，”狼说，“如果不是你，就是你的爸爸。”
After that he rushed at the poor little lamb and ate it up.
说完，他就冲向小山羊，把他吃掉了。
当一个坏人想为自己所做的坏事寻找借口时，他不会在乎这个借口是否恰当。

A. Because he was hungry and the lamb can be his supper.
B. Because the lamb called his bad names this time last year.
