【篇一】简短寓言故事英文版及翻译
Once upon a time, there was a poor fisherman who always dreamed of becoming rich. He wished to become a millionaire, and so did his wife. He had heard from some old men before, that several ships loaded with diamonds and gold had once sunk in the nearby seashore. Because of this, for a long time he kept searching that whole area for this treasure.
One day, while he was sitting on the boat daydreaming, he suddenly felt that the fishing rod was being weighed down by a heavy object. He excitedly pulled hard at it, and what he saw made him exclaim, "Wow! A big, shiny gold chain!" He pulled hard at the gold chain to get it into the boat, but there seemed to be no end to it. His boat started to get over-loaded and the sea water filled his boat.
However, he had begun dreaming of a big house, a big piece of land and buying horses and cows...He kept pulling in the chain though the boat kept sinking. The boat was finally submerged and he struggled to stay afloat. Unfortunately his feet were entangled in the gold chain and he drowned.
很久以前，有个贫穷的渔夫，总是梦想发财，他希望自己成为百万富翁，他妻子更是如此。他曾听一些老人讲过，过去有几艘载满金银珠宝的船只沉没在这附近的海域里。因此，长期以来，他一直在这一带的海域里搜寻着，希望能打捞到一些金银珠宝。
有一天，他出海捕鱼，当他坐在船上想入非非时，忽然感到钓线被非常沉重的东西拖住了。他一下兴奋起来，使劲地往上拉鱼线，当鱼线拖出水面时，他不禁大声尖叫起来：“哗!金光闪闪的长金链!”他喜出望外，拼命地把金链往船上拖，可是金链很长，似乎没有尽头。由于金链很重，小船严重超载，海水灌进了船内。
然而，他却依旧做着没完没了的黄粱美梦：“我可以买一幢大房子，置一大片稻田，再买下几头牛、几匹马…”尽管小船一直往下沉，他却依然贪心地拖着金链。最后，小船终于沉下去了。他在水中拼命挣扎想游出水面，然而不幸的是，他的双脚被金链缠住了，结果他被淹死了。
