31.THE FOX AND THE MONKEY狐狸和猴子A Fox and a Monkey were on the road together, and fell into a disputeas to which of the two was the better born. They kept it up for some time, tillthey came to a place where the road passed through a cemetery full ofmonuments, when the Monkey stopped and looked about him and gave agreat sigh. "Why do you sigh?" said the Fox. The Monkey pointed to thetombs and replied, "All the monuments that you see here were put up inhonor of my forefathers, who in their day were eminent men." The Fox wasspeechless for a moment, but quickly recovering he said, "Oh! don't stop atany lie, sir; you're quite safe: I'm sure none of your ancestors will rise up andexpose you."Boasters brag most when they cannot be detected.{中文阅读}狐狸与猴子同行,一路上都在争吵谁的家世更高贵。他们各自坚持着夸耀自己,边说边来到一个路边满是墓碑的地方。这时,猴子停下来,四处观望,然后放声大哭。“你为什么这样 呀?”狐狸忙问道。猴子指着那些墓碑,说:“你在这里看到的所有墓碑都是我祖先的荣誉,他们当时可都是杰出的人士!”狐狸沉默了一会儿,但是很快就反驳道:“噢!接着吹吧,先生,不会有人揭穿你的——我相信,他们之中没有人能站起来反驳你。”谎言无法被揭穿
