英语教育

There was once a fool visited his friend.

The host offered him some food which he found tasteless. When the master of the house heard him complain, he added some salt to the dish.

The fool found the food now quite delicious. He thought, "The food is delicious because of the salt could produce this effect, a lot of salt must taste even better." The fool that he was, he started eating nothing but salt. Rather than tasting delicious. The salt spoiled his appetite.

从前有一个愚人，他去别人家去做客。

主人端出食物来招待他，他嫌淡而无味。主人听了，便给他添了一点盐。

愚人尝过了加过盐之后的美味食物，于是暗自忖度：“味道之所以这么美，是因为有盐的缘故。这么一点点盐尚且如此，如果有很多盐，味道岂不是更美？”愚人没有知识，便去单独吃盐。结果胃口败坏，反而受了苦楚。
