Chinese/English Philosophical Story series 2 The rabbit beat the fox/兔子跑赢了狐狸
2021/04/29
After the result of "tortoise and rabbit race" spread, the happiest is the fox. Because it has reason to believe that a tortoise can not run away from the rabbit, how can escape their own claws?
"I'm blessed ". The fox stretched as he thought, lying beside the only way for the rabbit to go home, squinting and waiting for the rabbit to come.
We can imagine such a scene: a rabbit desperately running in front, a fox tightly chasing, the distance between them is getting closer and closer, the fox seems to be able to quickly reach out to catch the rabbit's hind legs......
At this time, the rabbit was anxious, it clearly knew that the front of the bushes covered with thorns and hunters under the trap, or a head into the drill...
The fox stopped chasing and the rabbit saved himself.
Why should we, like rabbits, drill into that bush just for dinner ?" Afterwards, the fox said so to his children.
"At that time, I only know to run for life, nothing to think about ." This is the rabbit after the escape experience.
One is for a dinner, the other is to escape. Different goals determine different dynamics, and the result is natural.

“龟兔赛跑”的结果传开后，最开心的是狐狸。因为它有理由相信，一只连乌龟都跑不过的兔子，又怎能逃的出自己的爪牙呢？
“算我有口福”。狐狸边想边伸了个懒腰，美滋滋躺在兔子回家的必经之路旁，眯着眼等着兔子的到来。
当兔子发现狐狸的时候，想躲根本已经来不及了。除了撒开四腿拼命跑，兔子别无二路可选, 这样的场面我们是可以想象到的：一只兔子拼命的在前面跑，一条狐狸紧紧地追着，它们之间的距离越来越近，狐狸似乎很快就可伸出爪去抓住兔子的后腿了……
此时，兔子急了，它明明知道前方的灌木丛中长满了荆刺和猎人布下的陷阱，还是一头往里钻了进去……
狐狸停下了追赶的脚步，兔子自救成功了。
“仅仅为了一顿晚餐，咱何必象兔子一般不管死活往那灌木丛里钻呢？”事后，狐狸如此对自己的孩子们说。
“那时，我只知道逃命，什么都顾不着想了。”这是兔子劫后逃生的体会。
一个只是为了一顿晚餐，一个却是为了逃命。不同的目标决定了不同的动力，其结果也就自然而然了。
