The hare and the 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.

The Rabbit and the Tortoise 龟兔赛跑
It is a bright spring morning. A Tortoise walks by and meets a Rabbit.
Tortoise: Hi there, Mr. Rabbit. Beautiful day, isn’t it?
Rabbit: Aren’t you “the Slow Tortoise”?
The Tortoise is a little mad, but he doesn’t show it. The Tortoise still tries to be nice to the Rabbit.
Tortoise: Yes, I’m Mr. Tortoise. I’m happy to meet you. Let’s be friends.
Rabbit: No, thank you. I don’t want to be your friend.
Tortoise: How come?
Rabbit: Your legs are too short. You can’t jump. And you are too slow.
Tortoise: My legs may be short. And I may be slow. But I can still beat you in a race.
Rabbit: Ha!Ha!Ha! That’s funny! How can you beat me? I am much faster.
Tortoise: I can beat you for sure.
Rabbit: No, you can’t!
Tortoise: Yes, I can!
Rabbit: No, you can’t!
Tortoise: Yes, I can! Let’s have a race now. Then you’ll see.
Rabbit: Now? Okay! Why not? I will win for sure.
Tortoise: Let’s make a bet. If I win, you must carry me on your back.
Rabbit: I promise. But if I win, you must carry me.
Tortoise: Fine.
The other animals in the forest hear about the race and gather to see the Tortoise and the Rabbit run. The race is about to start.
Tortoise: See the mountain top?
Rabbit: Yes.
Tortoise: The first one to reach there, wins. Okay?
Rabbit: Okay.
The Fox is the starter.
Fox: Stand behind this line. Are you both ready?
Tortoise: Yes
Rabbit: Me too.
Fox: Okay. I’ll start the race. One! Two! Three! Go!
The Fox drops the white handkerchief and the race starts.The Rabbit is very fast and is already way ahead. The tortoise walks very slowly. The other animals are all cheering for the Tortoise. The Fox is worried about the Tortoise.
Fox: Poor Mr. Tortoise. He will lose for sure.
Goat: How do you know? Maybe he will win.
The Rabbit is already half way up the mountain. He is out of breath. He stops to look behind.
Rabbit: Where is the Tortoise? I can’t even see him. He is too slow for me. This is too easy.
The Rabbit decides to take a nap before the Tortoise comes.
Rabbit: I am a little tired. And I have a lot of time. So, I will take a nap here.
The Rabbit takes a nap. Even though the Tortoise is still far behind, he doesn’t stop or give up. He just walks and walks and walks.
Tortoise: I am tired, but I must go on. I must win the race. One, two. One, two.
The Rabbit falls asleep and continues to sleep for hours. The Tortoise is now at the middle of the mountain. He sees the Rabbit sleeping.
Tortoise: It’s Mr. Rabbit! Why is he sleeping here? He must be very tired. I am tired, too. But I must go on. One, two. One, two.
The mountain top is not too far away. The Tortoise is almost at the finish line. All the other animals are surprised.
Goat: Look! It’s the Tortoise!
Fox: Where’s the Rabbit?
Goat: Who knows? Come on, Mr. Tortoise! Go! Go! Go!
The tortoise takes one step, and another step, and another.
Tortoise: One, two. One, two. I’m almost there.
Just then, the Rabbit wakes up from his nap and is surprised. He realizes that he has slept too long. He sees the Tortoise near the mountain top. He runs, and runs, and runs, but it’s no use.
Rabbit: Faster! Faster! I must run faster!
Finally, the Tortoise reaches the mountain top first and wins the race.
Goat: Hooray! Hooray for Mr. Tortoise!
Fox: Congratulations, Mr. Tortoise! You won the race!
Tortoise: Thank you, thank you, everyone!
The Rabbit is too late. He feels ashamed.
Rabbit: Oh, no! I lost. Now I have to carry the Tortoise on my back.
The Rabbit goes to shake hands with the Tortoise.
Rabbit: Good race. Congratulations, Mr. Tortoise. You won the race.
Tortoise: I told you, I would win.
Rabbit: But how did you do it?
Tortoise: It wasn’t too hard. Just take one step after another. It may be slow, but you will get there for sure.
Rabbit: Oh…Now, I will keep my promise. Climb up on my back.
Tortoise: That’s okay. Let’s just be friends.
MORAL
Talent is of no use without effort.

The Tortoise and the Hare
龟兔赛跑
The Hare was once boasting of his speed before other animals. "I have never been beaten," said he, "when I put forth my full speed. I challenge any one here to race with me."
从前有一只兔子，他在其它动物面前吹嘘自己跑得是如何如何的快。“当我全速奔跑的时候，我从来没有被打败过，”他说，“谁敢跟我比一比?”
The Tortoise said quietly, "I accept your challenge."
“我来跟你跑一场”，一只乌龟沉着地说。
"That is a good joke," said the Hare; "I could dance round you all the way."
“快笑死我了，” 兔子说，“我一边跑一边围着你跳舞都能赢你”。
"Keep your boasting till you've won," answered the Tortoise. "Shall we race?"
“你跑赢了再吹牛吧”，乌龟说，“我们可以开始比赛了吗?”
So a course was fixed and a start was made. The Hare darted almost out of sight at once, but soon stopped and, to show his contempt for the Tortoise, lay down to have a nap. The Tortoise plodded on and plodded on, and when the Hare awoke from his nap, he saw the Tortoise just near the winning-post and could not run up in time to save the race.
于是，他们确定了一条比赛路线和起点。比赛开始，兔子是嗖的一声就跑得没影了，但他很快就停了下来。 为了让乌龟知道他并没把乌龟放在眼里，兔子决定睡上一觉再接着跑。 这时，乌龟正一点一点艰难地向前爬着。 当兔子一觉醒来，发现乌龟离终点已经很近了，要追已经赶不上了。
Then the Tortoise said: "Slow but steady progress wins the race."
这时，乌龟说：“踏踏实实、一步步前进，你就会赢得比赛”。
