I'm happy to help you! The following are some short ancient fables with translation:

The tortoise and the rabbit: The rabbit proudly said that he was the fastest animal, so he ran to the river to drink water. He accidentally fell into the river and was rescued by a tortoise. The hare was very grateful to the tortoise, but when he heard that the tortoise had saved him three times, he no longer felt grateful to the tortoise. On the contrary, he thought the turtle was mocking his speed. This story tells us not to underestimate others, especially those who seem slow and ordinary. They may have unexpected abilities and talents.

The butterfly pursued beauty and freedom while the bee pursued honey and warmth. The story between the butterfly and the bee tells us that everyone's pursuit is different. We should respect everyone's choice and find what we really want.

The wolf in the story always comes to deceive people. He makes people think that another stronger animal is coming, but in fact, he is just pretending to be a wolf to scare people. This story tells us not to believe rumors, especially those that seem too good to be true.

Fish and Bear's Paw: The bear and the fish got what they wanted in a deal--bear's paw and fish. However, when they arrived at the place where they were going to trade, the bear paw and the fish had already been separated. The bear paw was placed on one table while the fish was placed on another table. The story of the deal between the bear and the fish turned into a scam tells us not to try to get what you want by cheating.

The Foolish Old Man thought that there was a huge mountain in his cave and he was determined to move it. Although he repeatedly told his family and neighbors about his goal, he did not give up. In the end, he died, but his sacrifice was not in vain. His children finally succeeded in moving the mountain. This story tells us that perseverance and determination can overcome all difficulties.
