❶ 英语谚语故事
Plug one's ears while stealing a bell（掩耳盗铃）完整的英语，后面有中文意思：）~
In the Spring and Autumn period, a thief had stolen a bell and intended to carry it away on his back, but the bell was too bulky and heavy to be carried, so he tried to break it into pieces with a hammer to make it easier for carrying. On his first hit, however, the bell made a loud noise. He thus feared that the ringing sound might be heard by someone, who would come to rob him of his bell. His fright made him plug his own ears, while hitting the bell with the hammer. The bell sound was, nevertheless, audible to others and therefore to stuff his ears for the purpose of stealing a bell was a stupid action it is as foolish as burying one's head in the sand.
from Huai Nanzi（淮南子著）
掩耳盗铃
在春秋战国时期，有一个小偷偷了一只钟。他准备把钟扛在背上带走。可是钟又大又沉，很难扛走。因此他想用锤子把钟敲成碎片，这样运起来就能多了。可是，他敲了一下，那只钟发出巨大的响声。他怕别人听到了钟声会来抢他的钟，于是他在锤子敲钟时捂上了自己的耳朵。不过，即使他这样做，别人还是听得到钟声的。所以掩耳盗铃是非常愚蠢的行为，就像把头埋在沙子中一样。
（淮南子著）

❹ 急！英语故事、名人名言
1.Sometimes we may think that happiness is so faraway a thing that we couldn't touch it. But with time passing by,I graally understand the meaning of happiness. It turns out to be easy. You know what？You could take everything as a reason to be happy. When you come across an old friend,you can feel happiness from the bottom of your heart. When you see someone else smile to you in the morning ,you might be happy the whole day？ When you find a letter which is written by your teacher,you may feel satisfaction. And when you give a seat to a pregnant woman you must be proud of yourself and be happy.
Remember when you just smile to the world,you will receive double of that.Believe it or not.Happiness is with you all the time and the most important thing is that you catch it and cherish it！
2.At the airport bookstore, there are only about a dozen freestanding shelves of books. It's Darwinian selection at its most brutal: only the most popular authors, the newest novels, and the most recognizable classics survive. You won't find the lesser known works of Oscar Wilde or Voltaire or even Hemingway — there isn't space for them. Jane Austen makes only the briefest appearance, and Edgar Allen Poe shows his face only at Halloween. There are no collections of poetry beyond Dr. Seuss.
There is, however, a whole rack of self help books.
Americans are obsessed with making ourselves better. Smarter. Thinner. You can buy books to improve your vocabulary. You can devour a stack of books that will teach you to work more efficiently, more ruthlessly, and claw your way to the top — and then you can read books on how to stop and smell the roses and enjoy your life more fully. There are even books that will teach you how to organize your closets.
All of these things dance around the essential truth: we want to be happy. We want to be loved. We want to find meaning in our lives and feel that our contributions make a difference.
This, then, is the Rusty Brain Guide: How To Be Happy.
Eat more cookies. Abstaining from a single cookie isn't going to make you look svelte and toned. Go on, eat some cookies. I recommend the double chocolate ones with chocolate chips inside.
Sing. In your car. In elevators. At the mall, especially at Crate & Barrel and Pottery Barn. In hospital corridors. Before important client meetings. When people give you that patronizing look, wink at 'em.
Make Popsicles.
Stay home on the weekend and disconnect your phone.
Bring a plastic straw to a fancy restaurant. Make loud gurgling sounds when you get to the bottom as you attempt to drink every last molecule of diet Coke.
Order the stuff on the menu that you've never heard of — like Gkaeng Cheud Bplah Meuk Yad Sai (Stuffed Squid Soup with Napa Cabbage or Squash).
Talk to strangers.
Collect something weird that isn't expensive but is relatively hard-to-find.
Wear odd hats in public places.
Amass a jar of coins. Bury them in your back yard. Draw a treasure map and give it to a friend.
Walk to the park near your house. Do some somersaults. When was the last time you did a somersault, anyway?
Eat pickles out of the jar.
Build a Web site and write your own Rusty Brain column (Matt only).
Spend a day by yourself. Leave your cell phone at home. Wander the streets, muttering to yourself and occasionally disagreeing with what you've just muttered.
Buy a puppy. Name it Charo.
Get your teeth capped. Move to Hollywood. Become a star. (Isn't that what you've been dreaming about anyway?)
Wear thong panties under your habit (nuns only).
Throw a surprise birthday party for a friend. Invite lots of people. Make sure that your friend's actual birthday is nowhere near the date of the party.
Belch in public. Then sigh contently.
Suntan naked on a public beach. Adopt a European accent for the day to explain your complete lack of modesty.
Quit your worthless job and dedicate your life to the study of the Moroccan flute.
Fly a kite.
Stop wasting your life with the Moroccan flute and get a real job.
Volunteer at your library, or church, or your local soup kitchen, or Habitat for Humanity. Wear clothes so ratty that you are often mistaken for one of the "needy."
Use the word "Jonesing" as often as possible. As in, "Man, I'm Jonesin' for some homemade Popsicles." Studies have shown this will make you happy.
Join a bowling league. Buy a large red bowling ball. Name it "Gorbachev."
Drive to the nearest national forest. Hike a mile with a backpack full of cold fried chicken and biscuits. Find a clearing where you will not meet a single human and have a picnic.
Stare at the clouds for a full afternoon and dream.
Think about the things you love to do. Now go do those things more often.
Meet someone, fall in love, live happily ever after.
翻译： 机场书店里只有十来个独立书架。达尔文“适者生存”的无情法则在这里被演绎得淋漓尽致：能上架的只有那些最走红作家的、最新出炉的以及最被认可的经典作品。就连奥斯卡·王尔德、伏尔泰甚至海明威的那些不太有名的作品，也未能取得一席之地。简·奥斯丁的作品只有最最出名的几本，而埃德加·阿伦·坡的则只会在万圣节时才露上一面。至于诗集，除（狄奥多·）索伊斯博士的以外，其它的就更别提了。
但是，这里却有整整一架子"＊＊自助"之类的书。
人们总为那些诸如怎样怎样让自己更具魅力、更聪明、更苗条之类的书着迷。你可以买本书来提高自己的单词量，也可以一目十行地啃下一大堆教你如何如何提高工作效率、更残酷、更快地往上爬之类的书，也可以看那些教你如何停下来赏闻路边玫瑰、怎样更好地享受人生之类的书，甚至还有书教你如何安排自己的洗手间。
所有这些都围绕着这样一个基本的主题：我们都希望快乐，我们都希望被爱、希望发现生活的真谛，还希望体验到因自我奉献而对周围带来的改变。
这就是了。所以我们这个"方脑袋专栏"，就是要告诉你快乐的秘诀。
●多吃几块饼干。少吃一块饼干并不会让你看起来更苗条或者曲线更优美。所以，继续放心地吃饼干吧，我推荐那种双面巧克力，中间还有巧克力馅儿的那种。
●无论是在汽车里、电梯间、超市、特别在Crate & Barrel and Pottery Barn这样的商店里，都要哼哼歌。在医院的走廊上，在会见重要客户的会议上，也要哼歌。当人们注目你的时候，朝他们眨眨眼睛。
●自己做冰棍。
●周末呆在家里，并拔掉电话插座。
●带上一根塑料吸管，去一家有特色的餐馆吃饭。在你喝完杯中的最后一滴可乐之前，一定要发出咕噜咕噜的声音。
●只点菜单上你从来没听说过的东西--类似名叫Gkaeng Cheud Bplah Meuk Yad Sai (鱿鱼汤加纳帕甘蓝或南瓜) 之类的。
●去跟陌生人交谈。
●收集那些虽不算贵重，但是却很难找到的东西。
●在公共场合出现的时候戴一顶很古怪的帽子。
●存一大罐硬币并埋在你家后面的院子里。然后画一张藏宝图，交给你的一个朋友。 （让他找去吧！）
●去你家附近的公园散步。在公园里翻几个筋斗。再想想，你最后一次翻跟斗是什么时候了的事情了？
●直接吃从罐子里取出的淹菜。
●自己建立一个网站，写自己的"方脑袋专栏" （仅适用于马特） 。
●独自在家过一天。把手机丢在家里。到街上去闲逛，自己叽哩咕噜一番，偶尔也反驳自己一番。
●买条小狗。给他取名为沙罗。
●戴上洁白的牙套，然后搬到好莱坞去住。然后成为明星。（这不是你一直所梦想的吗？）
●在法衣下穿的是系皮带的衬裤 (仅适用于修女 ) 。
●给朋友举办一个很突然的生日派对，邀请很多人参加。但实际上，举行派对这天跟你朋友生日还差好几天呢。
●当众打嗝。然后心满意足地长舒一口气。
●在沙滩上裸体晒太阳。在这一天要用欧洲腔来解释为什么这么不端庄的原因。
●中止你手上毫无意义的工作，然后集中全力去学摩洛哥长笛。
●去放放风筝。
●不要再把生命浪费在学摩洛哥长笛上，去找一份实在的工作。
●在图书馆、教堂、本地的汤馆或是居住区去充当"义工"。衣服一定要穿得破烂到你经常会被认为是"贫困一族"的程度。
●加入某一个保龄球联盟。买一个大红色的保龄球，取名为"戈尔巴契夫。"
●开车到最近的国家森林公园去。背一大包油煎鸡块和饼干步行一英里。然后找个干净的，不会碰上其它单身人士的地方搞一次野餐。
●用整个下午的时间盯着天上的云发呆、做白日梦。
●考虑考虑自己喜欢做的事儿。现在可以多去做做。
●遇见某人, 堕入情网, 然后幸福地生活
3.Relax. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Happiness is largely a choice. Feel gratitude for all of the good in your life.
Smile. Once you have enough to pay for life’s basics think to yourself: “I’ve won.” Happiness is contagious: find someone who is happy and stand close to them.
Play. Create. Happiness is attainable. Slow down and enjoy the scenery. Be spontaneous. Happiness is perched on your windowsill, invite it in.
Success is not the key to happiness; happiness is the key to success. Surround yourself with positive, life-affirming people.
Make others happy. Have big dreams. Enjoy the journey. Grab every single morsel of happiness which comes your way. Be on the look out for moments of pleasure and wonder.
Take care of your body. Be happy right here, right now, while working towards a better tomorrow. Forget about the Joneses. Forgive. Do for others. Become absorbed in activities that cause you to enter the “flow” state: that state where you forget yourself, lose track of time, and stop worrying. Develop the habit of positive self-talk. Plant a beautiful garden.
Get sunlight and fresh air. Engage your mind in a puzzle: jigsaw puzzles, sudokus, or crossword puzzles. Listen to music. Make music. Quiet your mind chatter.
Meditate.Practice yoga, tai chi, or Qigong. Get a box of six Guatemalan worry dolls: before going to bed, tell one worry to each doll and put them under your pillow; while you sleep, the dolls will take your troubles away.
Make smart money choices. View difficulties as challenges to be overcome. Remember that it’s not a good story if there aren’t any dragons.
4.Get involved in a cause that’s important to you. Have a cat or a dog; pet them often. Perform random acts of kindness, anonymous or not.Surround yourself with pleasant smells: jasmine, lavender, sandalwood . . . Put things in perspective. Go for a brisk walk. Stretch. Go to a museum.
Find a hobby you love. Engage in pleasurable activities.
(”The Pursuit of Happiness”; courtesy of jonSpot)
Spend discretionary income on experiences, such as dining out and travel, instead of purchasing goods.
Count your blessings. Resolve to have a bad memory: release the past. Be yourself, however strange and weird that may be. Ask yourself: what can I do to become happier? Read a good book.
Climb on a tire swing. Be part of something bigger than yourself. Embrace change. Simplify. Think big in the long run, but think small in the short run. Remember the following line from the film “American Beauty”: “. . . it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world.”Get rid of things that make you unhappy. Make happiness a priority in your life. Do something hedonistic: think afternoon at a spa or going out dancing.
Be curious. Engage in novel activities. Take on new skills. Learn new things. Think back to when you’ve been happiest: what were you doing? Create satisfying, meaningful connections with other people. Practice deep breathing. Savor small authentic moments that bring you contentment. Happiness is a state of mind. Have a small pleasure to look forward to every day: coffee out on the patio, going through a favorite magazine, visiting a beloved friend, baking cookies . . . Search for the sacred in the ordinary. Do a cartwheel when nobody’s looking. Take George Eliot’s declaration to heart: “It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
5.Laugh often. Ask for what you want. Hang a hammock; lie in it. Find work you love.Let go of fear.
Have courage. One of the greatest gifts you can give to your loved ones is to let them see you living a happy life. When you’re happy you give others permission to be happy as well.
Love. Entertain hope. Cope with difficult situations with ingenuity. Spend time contemplating nature. Accept that sometimes you’ll be sad, that’s just part of life. Make happiness the ultimate goal in your life. Fake it until you make it: act happy.
Create a serene environment. Resolve to be a little bit happier today than you were yesterday. Tilt your head back and let out a raucous peal of laughter . . .
翻译放松。把自己看得轻一点。快乐在很大程度上，是一种选择。为你生命中所拥有的美好，心怀感激吧。
微笑。一旦你能满足自己的基本生活需求了，就在心里对自己说：“我赢了。”快乐是可以传染的：所以找些快乐的人，然后向他们靠拢。
玩。创造。幸福是可以通过努力获得的。放慢脚步，去欣赏沿途的风景，要发自内心的去做。快乐就栖息在你的窗槛上，把它请进来吧。成功不是快乐的关键；而快乐却是成功的关键。争取让在你身边的人都是些积极而又有肯定生活态度的人。
让他人快乐。拥有远大的理想。享受你的旅途。抓住旅途中点滴的快乐，珍惜每个开心和奇迹的瞬间。
善待自己的身体。开心点，就在此时，此地，与此同时，也为了一个更美好的明天努力。安心过自己的生活，不做无谓的攀比。学会原谅，帮助他人。积极投入得去参加活动，它们会让你进入一种“流动”的状态：在这种状态里，你会忘了自己，忘了时间，也停止焦虑。养成积极的自我暗示的习惯。修一个漂亮的花园。
享受阳光和新鲜的空气。玩游戏：拼图游戏，数独游戏或填字游戏。听听音乐，玩玩音乐，让你的思绪安静下来。
沉思。
练习瑜伽，太极或者气功。在睡觉前准备一箱（6个）危地马拉忧心娃娃，告诉每个娃娃一个忧伤，然后把它们放在枕头下面，枕着它们入睡。这样，在你睡着的时候，它们就会将你的烦恼带走。
正确的对待金钱。把困难当成将要征服的挑战。要知道，好事多磨。
去做一些对你很来说重要的事情.养一只猫或狗，经常去宠爱他们。经常性的做善事，匿不匿名都可以。让你的周围充满可人的香味：茉莉花，薰衣草，檀香木。。。用长远的眼光看待事情。去轻轻松松的散步，舒展自身，去博物馆。
找一个自己喜欢的爱好. 参加一些娱乐性的活动。
把闲钱花在体验上，比如说去外面吃餐饭，旅游，而不是去购物。
珍惜你得到的恩泽.做一个“健忘”的人：释怀过去。不管别人觉得你有多怪多离奇，都要坚持自己的本色。问问自己：我要做些什么，才能让自己更快乐？读一本好书。
融入快乐，摆脱疲惫：.参与一些超越自己的事项。接受改变。尽量简单。目光要长远，但是也要有近期目标。记住《美国丽人》中的一句话：当世上有这么多美好事物的时候，想要保持疯狂也难。解决掉那些让你不快的事情，让快乐成为你生命中的头等大事。做一些享受的事情：想想下午去洗个温泉浴，或者去外面跳一支舞。
保持好奇心.
参与新奇的事物：学习新技能，接触新鲜事物。当你觉得自己是最快乐，最幸福的时候，回顾一下过去：回想你通常在做什么的时候 ，会感到快乐？与别人创建一种令人满足的，有意义的联系。练习深呼吸。尽情享受那些给你带来满足感的真实时刻。快乐是精神上的一种境界。每天都期待一点小幸福，去院子里喝喝咖啡，浏览一本自己喜欢的杂志，拜访自己喜欢的好友，享受自己喜欢的曲奇…..
在每天的平凡中寻找神圣。
趁别人不注意的时候来个侧身翻。把乔治艾略特的宣言牢记在心：“去成为你本应该成为的人，任何时候都不算晚。”
经常笑. 去索取你想要的。 挂上一个吊床，然后躺在里面。找一份你喜欢的工作，搁下恐惧。
鼓起勇气. 在所有礼物中，你能给你所爱的人最大的礼物就是让他们看到，你过着幸福的生活。如果你快乐，那就意味着你给了人家一个许诺：你，也一样能快乐。
爱. 拥抱希望。用智慧来解决难题。花点时间来观察自然。接受那些偶尔的伤心，那些只是生活的一部分。让快乐成为你生命的终极目标。在你得到快乐之前，要假装快乐。
创造宁静的环境。下决心让自己今天过得比昨天快乐。转过头，甩掉不快。笑声。
虽然只有2和5翻译但绝对OK！我急用分！给我吧

1。八仙过海，各显神通(Like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea,each one shows his or her special prowess)
According to the Chinese folk legend,there were Eight Immortals named Han Zhongli,Zhang Guolao,Han Xiangzi,Li Tieguai,Cao Guojiu,Lu Dongbin,Lan Caihe and He xianggu in ancient China.
Once the Eight Immortals were invited to attend an Immortality Peach Party given by the Queen Mother of the Western Heaven.
When they reached the bank of the Eastern Sea,there were no ships for them to go across the vast sea at all.Then Lu Dongbin suggested that each of them used his or her treasure to ride across the sea. They all agreed.
Then everyone threw a treasure on the sea to ride it across the sea,showing their mysterious abilities.
Now we use it to describe that in collective labour,everyone shows his own special ablity to complete the common task.
根据中国民间传说，古时候有八位神仙，就是汉钟离、张果老、韩湘子、铁拐李、曹国舅、吕洞宾、蓝采和、何仙姑。
一次，他们应王母娘娘的邀请，赴西天参加蟠桃盛会。
他们来到东海之滨，必须过海才能去赴会，而当时又无渡船。吕洞宾建议，每人用自己所带宝物渡海，大家都同意。

2。夜郎自大（ludicrous conceit of the King of Yelang-parochial arrogance)
It is recorded that in order to keep in touch with the countries of the Southwest and find the passageway of going to India,Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had sent Wang Yanyu and others to take a small road to find the passageway.On the way,they met the King of the Kingdom of Dian,who asked Wang a question:"Which is bigger,the Han Dynasty or out Kingdom?"Wang explained that there were dozens of prefectures in the Han Dynasty,and the territory of Dian was just like one of them.Then they met the King of Yelang who also asked the same questiong.In fact,Yelang was a very small Kingdom in the Southwest.Its territory was just like a count of Han\'s.Actually they always thought that they had a vast territory and didn\'t know anything about the Han Dynasty.
为了加强同西南邻国的联系和寻找去印度的道路，汉武帝派使者王然于等人抄小路往西南寻求通往印度之路。在途中他们见到滇国国王，国王问使者：“汉朝和我们国家比，哪一个大？”王然于解释说，汉朝有几十个郡，像你们滇国也不过是其中一个郡吧！
到了夜郎国，夜郎国王也这样问。其实，夜郎国只是西南部（今贵州省西北部）的一个小国，其面积只相当于汉朝的一个县，。原来他们一直都认为自己的地盘大，对汉朝的情况根本不了解。
后用此典比喻妄自尊大。
3。自相矛盾：A man of the state of Chu had a spear and a shield for sale. He was loud in praises of his shield.
"My shield is so strong that nothing can pierce it through."
He also sang praises of his spear.
"My spear is so strong that it can pierce through anything."
"What would happen," he was asked, "if your spear is used to pierce your shield?"
It is impossible for an impenetrable shield to coexist with a spear that finds nothing impenetrable.
古时候，矛和盾都是作战用的武器。矛用来刺杀敌人，盾则用来保护身体，以免被对方的矛刺中。
传说很久以前，楚国有个卖兵器的人，在市场上卖矛和盾。为了让人家愿意买他的货，他先举起盾向人们夸口道：“你们看，我的盾是世上最坚固的盾，任何锋利的东西都不能刺穿它。”接着又举起他的矛，向人吹嘘说：“你们再看看我的矛，它锋利无比，无坚不摧，无论多么坚硬的盾，都挡不住它，一刺就穿！”
围观的人听了他的话都觉得很好笑，人群中有人问道：“依你的说法，你的矛无论怎样坚硬的盾都能刺穿，而你的盾又是无论多么锋利的矛也不能把它刺穿。那就拿你的矛来刺你的盾吧，看看结果怎么样？”
卖兵器的人听了张口结舌，无从回答，只好拿着矛和盾走了。
“自相矛盾”就是由这个故事演变而来的。现在人们用它来比喻做事、说话前后自相抵触。

一只猫的生命哲学:The Zen of Cat
原来很大的道理不一定需要很难的语言去解释，本文简单地一问一答告诉我们，当身边的人离去时，他们其实活在我们的心里；告诉我们，生命原本是一个无所谓开始更无所谓结束的圆圈；告诉我们，每一段生命的结束都意味着新生命的开始。只要心中还有爱，有思念，我们就可以笑对生死，珍惜人生。——题记 The Man was very sad. He knew that the Cat’s days were numbered.The doctor had said there wasn’t anything more that could be done,that he should take the Cat home and make him as comfortable as possible.
The man stroked the Cat on his lap and sighed.The Cat opened his eyes, purred and looked up at the Man. A tear rolled down the Man’s cheek and landed on the Cat’s forehead.The Cat gave him a slightly annoyed look.
“Why do you cry, Man？”the Cat asded.“Because you can’t bear the thought of losing me？ Because you think you can never replace me？”The Man nodded “yes.”
“And where do you think I’ll be when I leave you？”the Cat asked. The Man shrugged helplessly. “Close your eyes, Man,” the Cat said. The Man gave him a questioning look, but did as he was told.
“What color are my eyes and fur？” the Cat asked. “Your eyes are gold and your fur is a rich, warm brown,” the Man replied.
“And where is it that you most often see me？”asked the Cat. “I see you…on the kitchen windowsill watching the birds…on my favorite chair…on my desk lying on the papers I need…on the pillow next to my head at night.” “Then, whenever you wish to see me, all you must do is close your eyes,” said the Cat.
“Pick up that piece of string from the floor——there, my ‘toy.’” The Man opened his eyes, then reached over and picked up the string. It was about two feet long and the Cat had been able to entertain himself for hours with it. “Now take each end of the string in one hand,” the Cat ordered. The Man did so.
“The end in your left hand is my birth and the end in your right hand is my death. Now bring the two ends together,” the Cat said. The Man complied.
“You have made a continuous circle,” said the cat.“Does any point along the string appear to be different, worse or better than any other part of the string？” The Man inspected the string and then shook his head “no.”
“Close your eyes again,” the Cat said.“Now lick your hand.” The Man widened his eyes in surprise.
“Just do it,” the Cat said.“Lick your hand,think of me in all my familiar places, think about all the pieces of string.”
The Man felt foolish, licking his hand, but he did as he was told. He discovered what a cat must know, that licking a paw is very calming and allows one to think more clearly. He continued licking and the corners of his mouth turned upward into the first smile he had shown in days. He waited for the Cat to tell him to stop,and when he didn’t, he opened his eyes. The Cat’s eyes were closed.The Man stroked the warm, brown fur, but the Cat was gone.
The Man shut his eyes hard as the tears poured down his face. He saw the Cat on the windowsill, then in his bed, then lying across his important papers. He saw him on the pillow next to his head, saw his bright gold eyes and darkest brown on his nose and ears. He opened his eyes and through his tears looked over at the circle of string he still held clutched in his hand.
One day, not long after, there was a new Cat on his lap. She was a lovely calico and white…very different from his earlier beloved Cat and very much the same.
男人非常伤心。他知道猫余下的日子不多了。医生说已经没得治了，他只能把猫带回家，并尽可能地让他在剩下的时间里过得舒服些。
男人把猫放在腿上，叹了口气。猫睁开眼睛，呼噜呼噜地叫着，抬眼看了看男人。一滴眼泪从男人的脸颊边滑落，落在了猫的额头上。猫有点不高兴地看了他一眼。
“你哭个什么啊，伙计？”猫问道，“因为你无法承受将要失去我的念头？因为你认为永远都没有什么能代替我？”男人点了点头。“是啊。”
“那么你认为我离开你以后，会到什么地方去了呢？”猫问道。男人无望地耸了耸肩。“闭上眼睛吧，伙计，”猫说。男人疑惑地看了他一眼，但还是听话地闭上了眼睛。
“我的眼睛和毛皮是什么颜色的？”猫问。“你的眼睛是金色的，你的毛皮是浓郁而温暖的褐色的。”男人回答道。
“那你最常在什么地方见到我呢？”猫问。“我经常见到你……在厨房地窗台上看鸟……在我最喜欢的椅子上……躺在桌子上我需要用的文件上……晚上睡在我脑袋边的枕头上。”“那么，无论什么时候你想见我，你只要闭上你的眼睛就可以了。”猫说。
“把地上的那段绳子捡起来——那里，我的‘玩具’。”男人睁开眼睛，伸手捡起了绳子。绳子大约有两英尺（约0.6米）长，猫曾经能够玩着绳子自娱自乐一玩就是几个小时。“现在用两只手捏住绳子的两端。”猫命令道。男人照做了。
“你左手捏着的那端就是我的出生，而右手的那端就是我的死亡。现在把两端连在一起。”猫说道。男人又照做了。
“你做出了一个连贯的圆圈，”猫说，“这个绳子上的任意一点同其他点有什么不同吗？比绳子的其他部分更好或者更差吗？”男人审视着那根绳子，然后摇了摇头。“没有。”
“再次闭上你的眼睛，”猫说，“现在舔舔你的手。”男人惊讶地睁大了眼睛。
“照我说的做吧，”猫说。“舔舔你的手，想想我在所有我熟悉的地方，想想所有的绳子。”
要舔自己的手，男人觉得很蠢，不过他还是照做了。他发现了猫所知道的秘密——舔爪子能让你平静下来，并让你能够思考得更加清楚。他继续舔着，他的嘴角开始上翘，好多天来第一次露出了微笑。他等待着猫叫停，可是没等到，于是他睁开了眼睛。猫的眼睛已经闭上了。他摸了摸猫温暖的褐色皮毛，可是猫已经去了。
男人用力地闭上了眼睛，泪如泉涌。他看到猫蹲在窗台上，然后是他的床上，然后躺在他的重要文件上。他看到猫在他脑袋边的枕头上，看到他明亮的金黄色的眼睛还有鼻子和耳朵上深褐色的毛发。他睁开眼睛，透过泪水看向他依然捏在手里的绳圈。
不久以后的某一天，他的膝上有了一只新的猫咪。她是一只可爱的白色花斑猫——与之前那只他深爱的猫是那么的不同，然而又是那么的相同。
