用英语讲寓言小故事——Monkey Fishing For The Moon 猴子捞月
从前，有一群可爱的小猴子住在一片茂密的森林里。Once upon a time, there was a group of cute little monkeys living in a dense forest.
一天晚上，小猴子们在月光下玩耍。
One night, the little monkeys were playing in the moonlight.
一只小猴子跑到树林边玩，看到了一口井，就爬了过去。
A little monkey ran to the woods to play, saw a well, and climbed over.
然后小猴子低头一看井里，里面有一个月亮，他兴奋地喊道：“大家快看，月亮在水里！”
Then the little monkey looked down into the well and saw a moon. He shouted excitedly, "Look, everyone! The moon is in the water!"
其他小猴子们都围了过来，看到月亮掉井里了，一个个都想要把月亮捞出来。
The other little monkeys gathered around and saw the moon fall into the well. They all wanted to fish it out.
他们商量了一下，决定搭一条“猴子梯”来捞月亮。
After some discussion, they decided to build a "monkey ladder" to catch the moon.
于是，最大的猴子抓住树枝，下面的猴子一个接一个地抓住上面的猴子的尾巴。
So, the biggest monkey grabbed the branch, and the monkeys below, one by one, grabbed the tails of the monkey above.
小猴子们一个个抓得很紧，最后一只小猴子伸手去捞水里的月亮。
The little monkeys all held on tightly, and the last little monkey reached out to catch the moon in the water.
他们以为就快成功了，但小猴子一碰到水面，月亮就碎成了一片片波纹。
They thought they were about to succeed, but as soon as the little monkey touched the water, the moon shattered into ripples.
小猴子惊叫道：“月亮碎了！捞不上来”
The little monkey screamed: "The moon is broken! I can't get it out."
小猴子一直在捞水里的月亮，最上面的大猴子都快坚持不住了。
The little monkey has been trying to fish for the moon in the water, and the big monkey at the top can hardly hold on any longer.
累的大猴子抬头一看，发现月亮还是好好的挂在天上。
The tired big monkey looked up and found that the moon was still hanging in the sky.
他立即说：“不用捞了，不用捞了，月亮还在天上。”
He immediately said, "No need to fish, no need to fish, the moon is still in the sky."
这时小猴子们才明白，原来他们看到的月亮只是月亮的影子。
Only then did the little monkeys realize that the moon they saw was just its shadow.
这个故事告诉我们：有时候我们看到的东西并不是真的，需要动脑筋去思考和辨别真相。同时，也提醒我们，不要被表面的事物迷惑，要多观察、多思考，这样才能做出正确的判断。
This story tells us that sometimes what we see is not real, and we need to use our brains to think and discern the truth. At the same time, it also reminds us not to be confused by superficial things, but to observe and think more, so that we can make correct judgments.
