  Once upon a time, there lived a woodman and his wife. They were very poor, and they lived in a cottage on the edge(1) of a forest. Every day, the woodman would set out(2) early in the morning to chop down trees.
  As the woodman was travelling through the forest one day, he saw a fine old oak tree. “That will make plenty of planks(3),” he thought, as he felt the blade(4) of his axe to make sure it was sharp. He was about to(5) strike the tree with the axe, when(6) he heard someone crying out, “Please don’t hurt this tree.”
  The woodman looked around him and saw a tiny fairy. “If you do not hurt this tree,” she said, “I will grant(7) you and your wife three wishes.”
  “I won’t hurt the tree,” said the woodman kindly. Then the fairy vanished(8)!
  That evening, the woodman walked slowly home. He was feeling very hungry and could not wait for his supper.
  “Is my supper ready?” the woodman asked his wife.
  “Not for at least two hours(9),” replied his
  wife. So the woodman sat in a chair by the fire.
  “I wish I had a big black sausage(10) to eat right now(11),” he said out loud. And suddenly, a delicioussausage appeared on the table before him! “Why has that black sausage suddenly appeared(12)?”the woodman’s wife asked.
  So the woodman told his wife the story about the fairy. But his wife was very angry. “You have waste(13) the first of our wishes,” she said crossly(14). “I wish that sausage were on your nose(15)!” And with those words, the sausage jumped up and stuck fast(16) on the woodman’s nose. His wife could not pull it off and nor could he(17), so the only thing to do was to wish(18) it on the table again, which the woodman did.
  What a waste of three wishes! The only thing the woodman had was a good supper of a black sausage.

直译是“狮子的那一份”,含义是“最大、最好的一份”。为何分给狮子的那—份是最大的,而不是大象或其他的动物呢?这是一句来自《伊索寓言》的成语。话说狮子、狐狸等四人一同去打猎。找啊,找啊,终于发现一头鹿,于是它们立即将其捕杀。接下来的问题是,它们要怎样来分这个战利品呢?狮子老大大吼一声说:“你们先把它分成四等份再说!”三人听命立刻将鹿剥皮并分好四份。接着,狮子站在食物面前宣布裁决:“我以万兽之王之尊,
