Crows and Ravens
The raven was jealous of the raven, who was respected and worshipped as a divine bird who could predict the future. The crow was eager to gain the same fame. One day, a crow saw that some passers-by were coming, so it flew to a branch by the roadside and began to crow as loudly as it could. Pedestrians were a little dismayed to hear the crow, for they feared it might be a bad omen. Until one of them found the crow and said to his companions, 'It's all right, my friends, let's not be afraid any more. It's only a crow. It's nothing serious.'

烏鴉和渡鴉
烏鴉非常嫉妒渡鴉,因為渡鴉作為一只能預測未來的神鳥,受到了人們的尊敬和崇拜。烏鴉非??释约阂材艿玫酵瑯拥暮妹?。一天,烏鴉見幾個行人正要走過來,就飛到路旁的一根樹枝上,竭力地大聲鳴叫。行人聽到烏鴉的叫聲感到有點兒沮喪,因為他們擔心這可能是不祥的預兆。直到其中一人發(fā)現(xiàn)了烏鴉,對他的同伴們說:“沒關系,朋友們,我們別再害怕了,那不過是一只烏鴉,沒什么大不了的。”
沒有本領,還要冒充內(nèi)行,到頭來只能招人恥笑。
