Belling The Catby Aesop
给猫系铃铛
选自《伊索寓言》
The Mice once called a meeting to decide on a plan to free themselves of their enemy the Cat. At least they wished to find some way of knowing when she was coming so they might have time to run away. Indeed something had to be done for they lived in such constant fear of her claws that they hardly dared stir from their dens by night or day.
有一天，一群老鼠聚在一起，商讨如何才能摆脱它们的敌人——猫。至少，它们希望能够想出什么高招，好在猫来的时候让它们有时间逃跑。讲真，它们确实要做点儿什么才行，因为那只猫的爪子总是令它们心惊胆颤，无论白天还是黑夜，它们几乎都不敢出门。
Many plans were discussed but none of them was thought good enough. At last a very young Mouse got up and said:
它们讨论了好多种方法，可没有一个办法行得通。最后，一只又白又嫩的小老鼠起身说道：
"I have a plan that seems very simple but I know it will be successful. All we have to do is to hang a bell about the Cat's neck. When we hear the bell ringing we will know immediately that our enemy is coming."
“我有一个主意，尽管看起来简单，但我知道一定能成。我们只需要在那只猫的脖子上系上一个了铃铛就可以了。铃声一响，我们立马就能知道，那可怕的敌人就要来了。”
All the Mice were much surprised that they had not thought of such a plan before. But in the midst of the rejoicing over their good fortune an old Mouse arose and said:
老鼠们都为这个好办法拍手叫好。可就在它们沉浸在大好日子就要来到的美梦中的时候，一只上了岁数的老鼠站起来说：
"I will say that the plan of the young Mouse is very good. But let me ask one question: Who will bell the Cat?"
“我想说的是，小老鼠的办法的确很好。但是我有个问题：谁去给这只猫系铃铛呢？”
It is one thing to say that something should be done but quite a different matter to do it
正所谓：说起来容易，做起来难。
