6.Choosing a Bride Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm There was a young herdsman who wanted very much to marry, and was acquainted with three sisters. Each one was just as beautiful as the other, so it was difficult for him to make a choice, and he could not decide to give the preference to any one of them. Then he asked his mother for advice, and she said, ＂Invite all three, and set some cheese before them, and watch how they cut off a slice.＂ The youth did so. The first one ate the cheese with the rind on. The second one hastily cut the rind off the cheese, but she cut it so quickly that she left much good cheese with it, and threw that away also. The third peeled the rind off carefully, and cut neither too much nor too little. The shepherd told all this to his mother, who said, ＂Take the third for your wife.＂ This he did, and lived contentedly and happily with her. 从前，有个牧羊人急於想娶个老婆。

他一下子认识了三姐妹，发现个个貌美，哪个也不差。这下他可为难了，一时不知该选哪一个好。他只好去问他母亲，母亲说：请她们三个一块儿来我们家，在她们面前摆些奶饼，看看她们怎么个吃法，年轻人照做了。第一个连皮把奶饼一口吞了下去；第二个想先削皮，但一时匆忙，削去的皮上还留有许多奶酪，就把它给扔了；第三个去皮时很仔细，切得不多也不少。牧羊人把这一切都看在眼里，然后告诉了他母亲，母亲说：“就挑第三个做你的媳妇吧！”牧羊人照办了，从此他俩过着幸福美满的生活。

希腊神话：海妖塞壬

Far out in the sea there was an island,on the rocky edge of which lived three Sirens,the three sisters of magic song.Half human and half bird,the Siren sisters sat in a field of flowers,singing in voices that excited the hearts of men.The attractive songs were so sweet that ships were attracted to the island and struck to pieces on the rocks.No sailor nor ship had ever been known to pass the Island of the Sirens without being attracted to disaster .

Acting on the advice of Circe,Odysseus took careful preparation against the Sirens.Before their ships came to where they could hear the song,Odysseus had himself tied to the mast ,stopped the ears of his men with wax and ordered them to ignore his orders and gestures when they were passing the fatal island .

Soon they came in sight of the rocky island,and the attractive song reached the ears of Odysseus.It moved him so much that he struggled in despair to free himself and shouted for his men to turn towards the rich and flowery grass land of the singing sisters.But no one paid any attention to him.The sailors kept straight on until they were completely out of hearing.Then his friends freed him and took the wax out of their ears.For once the Sirens had sung with no effects.The eldest of the sisters,Partherope,loved Odysseus so much that she threw herself into the sea after his ships had passed.

遥远的海面上有一岛屿，石崖边居住着唱魔歌的海妖塞壬三姐妹。半人半岛的塞壬姐妹们坐在一片花丛里，唱着盎惑人心的歌，甜美的歌声把过往的船只引向该岛，然后撞上礁石船毁人亡。过往的海员和船只都受到迷惑走向毁灭，无一幸免。

奥德修斯遵循女神喀耳斯的忠告。为了对付塞壬姐妹，他采取了谨慎的防备措施。船只还没驶到能听到歌声的地方，奥德修斯就令人把他拴在桅杆上，并吩咐手下用蜡把他们的耳朵塞住。他还告诫他们通过死亡岛时不要理会他的命令和手势。

不久石岛就进入了他们的视线。奥德修斯听到了迷人的歌声。歌声如此令人神往，他绝望地挣扎着要解除束缚，并向随从叫喊着要他们驶向正在繁花茂盛的草地上唱歌的海妖姐妹，但没人理他。海员们驾驶船只一直向前，直到最后再也听不到歌声。这时他们才给奥德修斯松绑，取出他们耳朵中的蜡。这次塞壬海妖们算是白唱了歌。三姐妹中的老大帕耳塞洛珀深深地爱慕着奥德修斯。当他的船只走过后，她就投海自尽了。

After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, ＂Do come and see me at my house in the country.＂ So the City mouse went.

You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city.＂ The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house.
