英语寓言故事：两口锅，一同来看看吧。
There were two pots on the bank of a river. One was made of brass, and the other was made of clay.
河中漂流着一个瓦锅和一个铜锅。
When the water rose they both floated off down the river. The earthen pot tried to stay away from the brass one.
每逢潮涨潮落时，瓦锅就尽量地远离铜锅。
So the brass pot cried out, "Fear nothing, friend, I will not hit you."
铜锅大叫：“别惧怕，朋友，我不会撞你的。”
"But I may come in contact with you," said the earthen pot. "If I come too close, whether I hit you or you hit me, I shall suffer for it."
“可是我有可能会和你接触，”瓦锅对铜锅说，“假如我离你太近，无论是你碰到我，或者是我自己不小心碰到你，我都会碎的。”
After that the earthen pot floated away.
然后，瓦锅就漂走了。
