Answer 1

如下：

The Thirsty Pigeon口渴的鸽子

A PIGEON, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard. Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly. Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders.

Zeal should not outrun discretion.

译文：

一只鸽子渴得要命，看见一块招牌上画着一杯水。她没有想到这只是一张照片，而是大声呼呼地朝它飞去，无意中撞到了招牌上，使自己非常不安。她被打断了翅膀，摔倒在地，被人轻易地捉住了。

热情不应超过谨慎。
