论文部分内容阅读
  It was still at night. A big tiger came out of his hole(2) to look for food.
  “There is a shadow(3). Aha! I have got
  something to eat,” he ran quietly toward the shadow and shouted. “ I am going to eat you up!”
  “Go ahead! Big tiger!” replied the shadow.
  “Oh! What a fool I have met!” the tiger rushed at it and gave it a huge bite(4).
  “Ouch! Ouch! How my mouth pains(5)! Who are you on earth(6)?”the tiger cried.
  “Haha! I am an urchin.”
  “My god! I have found a wrong person,” the tiger left with his mouth crooked(7).
  The tiger walked forward step by step. Once again, a sound came out of the woods. It was again a shadow. The tiger moved to it quietly and shouted, “ Are you an urchin?”
  “No, I am not.”
  “Oh! I am going to eat you up!”
  “Go ahead! Big tiger!” said the shadow.
  “Aha! I have met another fool,” the tiger opened his mouth wide and threw himself on it.
  “Ouch! Ouch! How painful my mouth is! Who are you on earth?”
  “Haha! You know only about an urchin but nothing about a mole.”
  “My god! I have again found a wrong person,” the tiger said and left with an askew(8) mouth.
  The tiger walked on slowly. Once again, he heard something in the woods. It was still a shadow. The tiger came up to it and asked in a loud voice,
  “Are you an urchin?”
  “No, I am not.”
  “Are you a mole then?”
  “No, I am not.”
  “Oh! I am going to eat you up!”
  “Go ahead! Big tiger!” said the shadow.
  “Aha! I have found a third fool,” the tiger attacked(9) the shadow with his sharp teeth.
  “Ouch! Ouch! My mouth! Who are you on earth?”
  “Haha! You know only about urchins and moles, but you forget the hedgepig that also has thorns(10).”
  “My god! I myself turned out to be a big fool!” At that time, it was going to dawn(11) and the tiger had to go back to his hole with an empty stomach and slanting(12) mouth.

中国人有金木水火土五行之说,五行中的“金”,60年轮回一次,加上十二生肖中的“猪”,就构成了“金猪年”。大家都说:2007年金猪年是个难得的吉利年份!  在中国文化背景下,“猪”的含义十分丰富,褒贬皆有。猪是古人最早驯养的家畜之一。猪历来就是农家之宝,老百姓常说:“五谷丰登,六畜兴旺。”但是,在一般人的心目中,“猪”却代表懒惰、肮脏、贪婪和愚笨。因此,汉语中有关猪的词语大都含有贬义。如:蠢猪、猪脑
