Once upon a time there was a hare who, boasting how he could run faster than anyone else, was forever teasing tortoise for its slowness. Then one day, the irate tortoise answered back: “Who do you think you are? There’s no denying you’re swift, but even you can be beaten!” The hare squealed with laughter.
“Beaten in a race? By whom? Not you, surely! I bet there’s nobody in the world that can win against me, I’m so speedy. Now, why don’t you try?”
Annoyed by such bragging, the tortoise accepted the challenge. A course was planned, and the next day at dawn they stood at the starting line. The hare yawned sleepily as the meek tortoise trudged slowly off. When the hare saw how painfully slow his rival was, he decided, half asleep on his feet, to have a quick nap. “Take your time!” he said. “I’ll have forty winks and catch up with you in a minute.”
The hare woke with a start from a fitful sleep and gazed round, looking for the tortoise. But the creature was only a short distance away, having barely covered a third of the course. Breathing a sigh of relief, the hare decided he might as well have breakfast too, and off he went to munch some cabbages he had noticed in a nearby field. But the heavy meal and the hot sun made his eyelids droop. With a careless glance at the tortoise, now halfway along the course, he decided to have another snooze before flashing past the winning post. And smiling at the thought of the look on the tortoise’s face when it saw the hare speed by, he fell fast asleep and was soon snoring happily. The sun started to sink, below the horizon, and the tortoise, who had been plodding towards the winning post since morning, was scarcely a yard from the finish. At that very point, the hare woke with a jolt. He could see the tortoise a speck in the distance and away he dashed. He leapt and bounded at a great rate, his tongue lolling, and gasping for breath. Just a little more and he’d be first at the finish. But the hare’s last leap was just too late, for the tortoise had beaten him to the winning post. Poor hare! Tired and in disgrace, he slumped down beside the tortoise who was silently smiling at him.
“Slowly does it every time!” he said.
The Race Between Hare and Tortoise
The hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. " I have never been beaten," he said, "When i run at full speed, no one is faster than me."
The tortoise said quietly, "i will race with you." "that is a good joke," said the hare. "i could dance around you the whole way."
The race started. The hare darted almost out of sight at once. He soon stopped and lay down to have a nap.
The tortoise plodded on and on. When the hare awoke from his nap, he saw the tortoise was near the finish line, and that he had lost the race.

龟兔赛跑
兔子向动物们夸耀他的速度,“我从来没有失败过,” 他说,“当我奔跑时,没有人比我更快。”
乌龟平静地说:“我要与你比赛。”“真是笑话,我可以边玩边和你赛跑。”兔子说。
比赛开始了,一眨眼工夫,兔子已经跑得不见了踪影。他很快停下来,躺下来打了个盹。
乌龟慢腾腾地却持续不停地走,当兔子一觉醒来,他看到乌龟已经快到终点线了。兔子输了比赛。
one spring afternoon, tortoise and his neighbor hare had a quarrel.
tortoise: i think cheetah is our fastest neighbor.
hare: no, i’m the fastest!
tortoise: you’re fast, but you’re lazy. even i can beat you in a race.
hare: ha-ha! how funny! i will win for sure.

the next morning, hare and tortoise met under the big tree in the park. the race started at 9. hare was much faster than tortoise. tortoise tired and tired to run faster. but he had shorter legs than hare. he was heavier than hare, too. so he was too slow and far behind hare.

at 10 o’clock tortoise was at the finish line. hare woke up. he saw that tortoise was there first. tortoise won the race.
tortoise: i have shorter legs than you. i am heavier. but who is lazier, hare?
do not always be too sure of yourself. slow and steady wins the race.

郑人买履
从前,郑国有个人想买双鞋。他量好了自己脚的尺码,把它放在了椅子上。可当他赶往市集时,却忘了带量好的尺码。他要买鞋时,才想了起来。
他说:"我忘带尺码了。"
他回家去取量好的尺码。 等他赶回来时,市集已经关了,他还是没能买到鞋。
有人问:"为什么不用你自己的脚去量鞋子呢?"
他说:"我宁愿相信尺码也不相信我自己的脚。" (《韩非子》)
