英语小故事带翻译（一）
  　A Singing-bird was confined in a cage which hung outside a
window, and had a way of singing at night when all other birds were
asleep. One night a Bat came and clung to the bars of the cage, and
asked the Bird why she was silent by day and sang only at night. “I have
a very good reason for doing so,” said the Bird: ”it was once when I was
singing in the  daytime that a fowler was attracted by my voice, and set
his nets for me and caught me. Since then I have never sung except by
night.” But the Bat replied, “It is no use your doing that now when you
are a prisoner: if only you had done so before you were caught, you might
still have been free.”
