有关老虎和狐狸的故事有哪些?
英语小故事:狐假虎威
Once a fox met a hungry tiger。 The tiger opened his mouth and was about to eat the fox。
But the fox said, “My dear sir, I’m the King of the forest! You cannot eat me! Follow me, let’s walk together and I will show you。 If any animal sees me and does not fear me, then you may eat me。”
The tiger agreed, because he couldn’t believe a fox could be as powerful as himself。 The tiger followed the fox to the forest。 All the animals, when they saw the tiger in the distance, were all frightened and ran away。
Then the fox said: “How about it? I was walking in the front, and I scared all the animals away。”
The tiger had not noticed that the animals were actually afraid of himself。 He was ashamed and said, “Yes, you are right。 I’m very sorry。 You are the King。”
老虎在山林里捉到了一只狐狸,要吃掉它。狐狸连忙说:“你不能吃我,我是天帝派来统治百兽的。你要吃了我,就违抗了天帝的命令。你不信,就跟我倒山林里走一趟,看百兽见了我是不是都很害怕。”老虎相信了狐狸的话,就跟在狐狸的后面走进山林。
百兽见了果然都纷纷逃命。老虎以为百兽真的害怕狐狸而不知道是害怕自己,于是就把狐狸给放了。
这个成语用来比喻依仗别人的势力去欺压人或吓唬人。
