The author of "Aesop's Fables" - Aesop, a Phrygian, a Greek fabler in the 6th century BC.
A master of fables with great ugliness and infinite wisdom. According to Herodotus, he was originally a slave of the Yademon family on Samos. He was pushed off a cliff and died because he offended the church at that time. After his death, a plague spread in Delphi, and the people of Delphi paid to compensate for his life. The money was received by the grandson of the same name as old Yademon. Legend has it that after Jademon granted him his freedom, he often visited the court of Croesus, king of Lydia. It is also said that during the reign of Pistela, he visited Athens and told the fable "The Frog Who Asked to Send the King" to the Athenians to dissuade them from replacing Pistela with others.
In a manuscript of "Aesop's Biography" discovered in the 13th century, he was described as ugly, and many stories about him emerged from this biography. At the end of the 5th century BC, the name "Aesop" was already well known to the Greeks, and Greek fables began to be attributed to his name. Demetrios (345 BC - 283 BC) edited the first collection of Greek fables (translated).
In the 1st and 2nd centuries, Phaedrus and Babrius wrote two verses of Aesop's fables in Latin and Greek respectively.
The now common "Aesop's Fables" were compiled by later generations based on the fables collected by the Byzantine monk Planudes and the manuscripts of ancient Greek fables discovered one after another.

Rooster and Baoyu
A rooster was looking for food for himself and his hens in the field. He found a piece of jade and said to Baoyu : "If it were not me but your master who found you, he would pick you up with great treasure; but I found you but it is useless. Instead of getting all the gems in the world, I would rather get a grain of wheat." ."
This means that the things you need are truly precious.
The stories compiled in "Aesop's Fables" are short, with extremely simple plots, or two. Three animals, or two or three people, or humans and animals, or animals and gods, or humans and gods... These simple plots constitute stories with profound implications.
We are reading When reading "Aesop's Fables", you will be surprised to find that the various animals in the fable are actually all kinds of people in society. The fox is a prophet full of wisdom. In "The Fox and the Leopard", when they were arguing about who is beautiful, the leopard The fox boasts of its own mottled patterns, and the fox says philosophically: "What I decorate is not the body, but the soul." The fox's plain words show extraordinary wisdom, just like a philosopher criticizing only focusing on appearance. And ignore the essential exaggerated world style. The fox in "The Fox and the Woodcutter" blamed the woodcutter and said: "If your gestures are consistent with your words, I should thank you properly." This is to warn people to be consistent in their words and deeds. The fox in "The Farmer and the Fox" is the incarnation of the gods. The evil-hearted farmer wants to destroy his neighbor's crops. The fox follows the instructions of the gods and burns the crops of the evil-hearted farmer to tell people a truth: harming others. Of course, the foxes in "Aesop's Fables" are not all symbols of good people. In "The Fox with a Cut-off Tail", the fox who pursues his own selfish interests becomes a fox with a cut-off tail.
Almost all the stories reflect the author's simple thought of sympathizing with the weak. The bull in "The Lion and the Bull" is weak, but he sees through the lion's conspiracy with his own wisdom. The cat in "Cat and Mouse" It is the natural enemy of mice, but mice are very smart, good at identifying, and are not deceived by disguise. The deer in "The Horse and the Deer" wants to get a piece of the grassland that the horse has exclusively occupied, and the selfish horse asks for advice to punish the deer. Method. What I didn't expect was that the horse became a slave to man before it could punish the deer. In these stories, the seemingly weak cows, rats, and deer all defeated the seemingly powerful lions, cats, and horses. This is This idea of ??sympathizing with the weak is the simple wish of slaves living at the bottom of society.
In most stories, "people" are not kind, but sinister: in "The Man and the Goatman" The "people" in "The Prankster" are capricious; the "people" in "The Prankster" never do good things; the astronomer in "The Astronomer" is unrealistic and boastful; the protagonist in "The Cowherd" only runs away when in danger. ;The farmer in "The Farmer and the Dog" is so vicious that he even wants to frame his own family...
Some stories contain profound philosophy. "The Fisherman Who Caught a Stone" tells the story of the fishermen when they set up their nets. The fishing net was very heavy, but when it was pulled ashore, it was just a big stone. When they were upset, an old fisherman said: "Pain is the sister of joy." This story tells people the dialectical relationship between good and bad fortune. The story strongly promotes the love of humanity. The grouse in "The Rooster and the Grouse" was often bullied by the rooster, but when it saw the roosters fighting each other to pieces, it tolerated the rooster's contempt for it. The grouse's The kindness and tolerance formed a sharp contrast with the cruel social reality at that time, and were a reflection of the working people's simple world view.
These fables express various realities of human society. Good and evil, beauty and ugliness, right and wrong in life are all contained in short and concise stories.

1 , cultivated and wild vegetables
(Original text) A man saw a gardener watering vegetables, so he stopped and asked the gardener whether wild vegetables would bloom and grow well if no one took care of them. But why are vegetables grown at home so weak? The gardener replied: For wild vegetables, the earth is the mother, but for vegetables grown at home, their stepmother takes care of them.
It is undeniable that modern parents, due to different living conditions and fewer children, have excessive care for their children, and even over-indulgence. As everyone knows, it is precisely because of this kind of "love" from parents that children lose their competitiveness and struggle. As a result, their wishes for their sons to succeed and for their daughters to succeed are all in vain. This contrary result ultimately broke the parents' hearts.
Most of the fruits produced by this kind of "love" are like artificially cultivated vegetables. As a result, most of these people who have just left campus and hometown to pursue their dreams in new places will not be very adaptable to a new living space and the new stage of life in society. We are all pondering in the new living environment. Facing this increasingly competitive society, where will we go? What kind of role do you play? The result of being at a loss and unable to adapt to life is that some people are lost in real life, while others sink.
Faced with such people and things happening all around us, should we parents be alert to this?
Comrade Lei Feng said it best: I would like to be a green pine that braves the wind and snow and fights against the wind and frost, not a weak seedling in the greenhouse. Boldly let go of the thread in your hands and let your children bravely accept the baptism of wind and rain, meet the challenges of life, and bear the setbacks and pains on the way forward. I believe that the edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. One day, these "wild vegetables" with all the natural air, sunlight, water, nutrients, and soil will live freely and develop well. Although they may encounter wind and rain attacks and insect pests, they They have all been baptized by nature and have strong bodies. They will not fall down after some small hardships. On the contrary, they will become stronger and braver, and they will live forever. At that time, they will be proud in their world of success.
2. Flea’s defense
(Original text) A person is often harassed by fleas. One day, he caught a flea and shouted: "How can you bite me and suck so much blood?" The flea replied: "That is my way of life, please don't kill me, I It’s not like you’ve done anything bad.” The man laughed and said, “No, I should kill you immediately, because if it’s a bad thing, it must be rooted out.”
What a sincere statement! Seriously support "that guy's" rhetoric.
Because, in our real life, some of us just turn a blind eye to some of our own little problems and bad habits. In fact, we should do this: we should resolutely eradicate bad things, bad habits, and bad habits, and we should not tolerate them just because we care about this and that. In normal times, we should develop the good habit of "Don't do good things because they are small, and don't do evil things because they are small." Really, bad habits are like a tumor growing in our body. If I don't remove the tumor when it is still small or hope that it will grow smaller and smaller, it will be in vain. Because it will only grow bigger and bigger, and it will completely damage your body until it kills you.
Do you have such a "flea" on your body?
The flea's theory is just a fallacy made by others. It can be dismissed as sophistry!
3. The Deer with One Eye
(Original text) A deer with one eye blind came to the seaside to eat grass. It stared at the land with its intact eye. He is always alert to the arrival of hunters, and looks at the ocean with his other invisible eye, thinking that there is no danger on the sea.
After a while, a ship sailed over the sea. When the people on the ship saw the deer, they took aim and shot it. When the deer was dying, he said to himself, "I was so negligent. I thought I only needed to pay attention to the dangerous land. Unexpectedly, the sea, which I thought was safer, turned out to be more dangerous."
The world is full of dangers, flowers and traps. But there may be flowers blooming beside the trap, and beneath the flowers there may be a bottomless abyss. The dangers in the world are everywhere and all the time. There is a saying: The road to heaven is more dangerous than the human heart. "And if we want to survive these dangers safely, the best weapon is to be careful. There is a saying in "Zeng Wen Xian Wen" that "You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others." I should be careful about the people around me, think more carefully when encountering problems, and understand their intentions and purposes, so that I can protect myself more effectively and avoid being hurt like a deer. There is a saying: The most dangerous place is the safest. But I have to say: "The place that feels the safest is often the most dangerous." Because precisely because we feel safe, we relax our due vigilance and lose our safety. People are unpredictable. Who can guarantee that the friend you think is the most trustworthy and trustworthy today will not be your enemy who will kill you tomorrow?
Friend, keep your eyes open. Don’t be like the deer with only one eye. 4. Appreciation of good words and sentences in "Aesop's Fables"
