愚公移山

The Tale of the Foolish Old Man Who Moved the Mountains

很久很久以前，有一个老爷爷，他的名字叫愚公。愚公家的前面有两座大山，它们叫做太行山和王屋山。这两座大山挡住了愚公和村里人去村外的路。

A long long time ago, there lived an old man named Yu Gong, which means "foolish old man" in English. In front of Yu Gong’s home were two massive mountains, known as Taihang Mountain and Wangwu Mountain. These mountains blocked the path from the village to the outside world.

有一天，愚公召集家人说：“我们来把这两座山挖掉吧，把它们的土石搬到河边去，这样我们就可以轻松地出村了。”家人们都同意了，他们觉得这是一个好主意。

One day, Yu Gong gathered his family and said, “Let's dig away these mountains and move the debris to the riverbank, so that we can easily leave the village.” His family agreed, thinking it was a good idea.

于是愚公和他的家人开始了挖山的工作。他们用锄头和箩筐，每天都挖一点，然后把土石搬到很远的河边去。虽然工作很辛苦，但愚公和家人从不抱怨。

Thus, Yu Gong and his family began the arduous task of digging the mountains. They used hoes and baskets to dig a little every day, then carried the earth and stones to the distant riverbank. Despite the hard work, Yu Gong and his family never complained.

不过，有一位叫智叟的老人觉得愚公很傻，他笑着对愚公说：“你那么老了，力气那么小，这两座大山那么大，你怎么可能挖得完呢？”愚公听了笑着说：“我死了之后，还有我的儿子，我的孙子，他们继续挖，一代接一代，总有一天我们会把山挖平的。”

However, an old man named Zhi Sou, which means "clever old man" in English, thought Yu Gong was foolish and laughed at him, saying, “You are so old and with so little strength, and these mountains are so vast, how could you possibly finish this task?” Yu Gong smiled and replied, “After I die, my sons and my grandsons will continue to dig. Generation after generation will persist, and one day, we will flatten these mountains.”

玉帝看到愚公这么坚持不懈，非常感动，就命令两位大力神将山挪到别处。最后，愚公和村里人的前面不再有山了，他们可以自由地到处走动，生活变得更加美好。

The Jade Emperor, seeing Yu Gong's unwavering determination, was deeply moved and commanded two powerful deities to move the mountains elsewhere. Eventually, there were no mountains blocking Yu Gong and the villagers anymore, allowing them to freely roam around. Life became much better for them all.

这个故事告诉我们，只要我们有决心，不怕困难，坚持不懈，就没有什么是做不到的。

This story teaches us that as long as we are determined, unafraid of difficulties, and persist tirelessly, there is nothing we cannot achieve.
