The Raven and the Swan乌鸦和天鹅英文版
A Raven saw a Swan and desired to secure for himself the same beautiful plumage. Supposing that the Swan"s splendid white color arose from his washing in the water in which he swam, the Raven left the altars in the neighborhood where he picked up his living, and took up residence in the lakes and pools. But cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished.
New words:
1.secure 安全的，可靠的，放心的。
2.plumage 鸟类羽毛，翅膀。
3.splendid 壮丽的，辉煌的，极好的。
4.neighborhood 附近，邻近。
5.perish 毁灭，死亡，腐烂，枯萎。
乌鸦非常羡慕天鹅洁白的羽毛。他猜想天鹅一定是经常洗澡，羽毛才变得如此洁白无 瑕。于是，他毅然离开了他赖以生存的祭坛，来到江湖边。他天天洗刷自己的羽毛，不但一点都没洗白，反而因缺少食物饥饿而死。
