داستان انگلیسی THE FOX AND THE CROW

THE FOX AND THE CROW

A hungry fox once wandering in a jungle. He saw a crow sitting in a tree. It had a piece of cheese in its beak. He longed to eat it himself. So he sat down under the tree and said, “What a pretty bird you are! Your voice must also be very sweet. Do sing me a song, please.”

The crow was greatly pleased to hear its praise. It began to caw with endless pride. But the moment it did so, the piece of cheese fell down. The cunning fox picked it up and ran away saying, “Thank you, Mr. Crow. The cheese is very delicious indeed. But your voice is not so sweet, as I thought it to be!”

روباه و کلاغ

یک بار روباهی گرسنه داشت در جنگل می گشت که کلاغی را نشسته روی درختی دید. کلاغ تکه پنیری در منقار داشت و او دلش می خواست آن را خودش بخورد.

پس زیر درخت نشست و گفت: «تو چه پرندۀ زیبایی هستی! بایستی خیلی خوش آواز هم باشی. لطفا، برایم یک دهن بخوان.» کلاغ که از ستایش او خیلی حظ کرده بود، با افتخار تمام غارغار کردن گرفت. اما همین که خواند، تکۀ پنیر افتاد پایین.

روباه زیرک آن را برداشت و در حالی که در می رفت، گفت: ممنون آقا کلاغه، این پنیر واقعآ خیلی خوشمزه است، ولی همان طور که فکر می کردم صدای خوشی نداری

The Bet by Anton Chekhov

It was a dark autumn night. The old banker was walking up and down his study and remembering how, fifteen years before, he had given a party one autumn evening. There had been many clever men there, and there had been interesting conversations. Among other things they had talked of capital punishment. The majority of the guests, among whom were many journalists and intellectual men, disapproved of the death penalty. They considered that form of punishment out of date, immoral, and unsuitable for Christian States. In the opinion of some of them the death penalty ought to be replaced everywhere by imprisonment for life. "I don't agree with you," said their host the banker. "I have not tried either the death penalty or imprisonment for life, but if one may judge a priori, the death penalty is more moral and more humane than imprisonment for life. Capital punishment kills a man at once, but lifelong imprisonment kills him slowly. Which executioner is the more humane, he who kills you in a few minutes or he who drags the life out of you in the course of many years?"

یک شب دلگیر پاییزی بود. بانکدار در اتاق کارش بالا و پائین می رفت و مهمانی یی را به خاطر می آورد که پانزده سال پیش در چنین شبی برگزار کرده بود. آدم های باهوش بسیاری در مهمانی حضور داشتند و گفتگوهای جالبی در گرفته بود. در خلال گفتگوها در باره مجازات مرگ صحبت کردند. اکثر مهمان ها که میانشان افراد روشنفکر و روزنامه نگار بسیار بودند اعدام را محکوم کردند. آنها این نوع مجازات را منسوخ، غیر اخلاقی و مغایر با مسیحیت می دانستند. به نظر عده ای باید حبس ابد در همه جا جایگزین اعدام می شد.بانکدار؛ میزبان آنها گفت: «من با شما موافق نیستم. من نه اعدام و نه حبس ابد را تجربه کرده ام اما اگر قرار بر پیش داوری باشد من اعدام را بسیار اخلاقی تر و انسانی تر از حبس ابد می دانم. اعدام بلافاصله می کشد اما حبس ابد به تدریج. کدام جلاد انسانی تر عمل می کند. آنکه شما را در عرض چند دقیقه می کشد یا آنکه طی سال های متمادی جانتان را می گیرد؟
