雙語(yǔ)·《伊索寓言》 老婦人和酒壇

THE OLD WOMAN AND THE WINE-JAR

An old Woman picked up an empty Wine-jar which had once contained a rare and costly wine, and which still retained some traces of its exquisite bouquet. She raised it to her nose and sniffed at it again and again. “Ah,” she cried, “how delicious must have been the liquid which has left behind so ravishing a smell.”

老婦人和酒壇

有一個(gè)老婦人撿到了一個(gè)空酒壇，這酒壇曾經(jīng)裝過(guò)一種很稀有很值錢(qián)的酒，現(xiàn)在里面還保留著獨(dú)特的酒香。老婦人把酒壇舉到鼻子邊，聞了一遍又一遍。“哎呀，能留下這么美好的味道的液體，該是多么美味??！”
