Lord Ye’s Love of the Dragon叶公好龙

 

Lord Ye’s Love of the Dragon

There is a young man, Lord Ye. He likes dragons very much. He draws many dragons in his house. The house becomes a world of dragon.

When the real dragon in heaven heard of this Lord Ye, he was deeply moved. He decided to visit Lord Ye and make a friend with him.

“Hi, Mr. Ye! Nice to meet you,” the real dragon came to visit Mr. But Ye was scared at the sight of the creature and ran away as fast as he could. “Oh, my God! Help! Help!” he runs and shouts.”From then on, people knew that Lord Ye only loved pictures or carvings that looked like dragons, but not the real thing.

    有个年轻人，姓叶，非常喜欢龙.他在屋里里面了许多许多龙。这屋子都快成了龙的世界。天上的真龙听说了叶公的事，很受感动，就想去拜访叶公，和他交个朋友。
       “嘿。叶先生！很高兴见到你。”这条真龙拜访叶先生了。可是叶先生一看见那条龙，顿时吓得魂飞魄散，赶紧拔腿就跑，而且还一边跑一边喊：“啊，我的天啊！救命！救命！”
    从此人们明白了叶公爱好的其实并不是真龙，而是似龙非龙的东西而已。
