一只狗学会了天天给主人送饭。他很忠于职守，尽管篮子里美食的香味诱惑着他。

街坊四邻的狗们注意到他老是叼着篮子，很快就查明了里面装的是什么。他们几次三番企图从他那儿偷走它。但他总是忠实地护住篮子。

然后有一天所有四邻的狗聚在一起，在路上遇见了带着篮子的他。这条狗试图逃走。但最终他停下来理论。

这是他的失误。他们很快让他觉得自己可笑之极，于是他丢下篮子，叼起一大块给主人准备的烤肉。

“很好，”他说，“你们把剩下的分了吧。”

不要停下来理睬诱惑。

A Dog had learned to carry his master's dinner to him every day. He was very faithful to his duty, though the smell of the good things in the basket tempted him.

The Dogs in the neighborhood noticed him carrying the basket and soon discovered what was in it. They made several attempts to steal it from him. But he always guarded it faithfully.

Then one day all the Dogs in the neighborhood got together and met him on his way with the basket. The Dog tried to run away from them. But at last he stopped to argue.

That was his mistake. They soon made him feel so ridiculous that he dropped the basket and seized a large piece of roast meat intended for his master's dinner.

"Very well," he said, "you divide the rest."

Do not stop to argue with temptation.
