英语寓言故事-The Ants and the Grasshopper

THE ANTS were spending a fine winter's day drying grain collected
in the summertime.
A Grasshopper, perishing with famine, passed
by and earnestly begged for a little food.
The Ants inquired of
him, "Why did you not treasure up food during the summer?'
He
replied, "I had not leisure enough.
I passed the days in
singing."
They then said in derision:
"If you were foolish enough
to sing all the summer, you must dance supperless to bed in the
winter."

It is thrifty to prepare today for the wants of tomorrow
