[交流] The Frogs Desiring a King

The Frogs were living as happy as could be in a marshy swamp that
just suited them; they went splashing about caring for nobody and nobody
troubling with them. But some of them thought that this was not right,
that they should have a king and a proper constitution, so they determined
to send up a petition to Jove to give them what they wanted. "Mighty
Jove," they cried, "send unto us a king that will rule over us and keep us in
order." Jove laughed at their croaking, and threw down into the swamp a
huge Log, which came downrplashto the swamp. The Frogs were
frightened out of their lives by the commotion made in their midst, and all
rushed to the bank to look at the horrible monster; but after a time, seeing
that it did not move, one or two of the boldest of them ventured out
towards the Log, and even dared to touch it; still it did not move. Then
the greatest hero of the Frogs jumped upon the Log and commenced
dancing up and down upon it, thereupon all the Frogs came and did the
same; and for some time the Frogs went about their business every day
without taking the slightest notice of their new King Log lying in their
midst. But this did not suit them, so they sent another petition to Jove, and
said to him, "We want a real king; one that will really rule over us." Now
this made Jove angry, so he sent among them a big Stork that soon set to
work gobbling them all up. Then the Frogs repented when too late.

Better no rule than cruel rule.
This is a fable about rule, even about political afair, someone think today is bad, but if you are just complain, tommorrow maybe worse, so lut's work together tomake a good enviroment of our country and word.
