A fox and a leopard¹ are having a rest lazily after a good dinner. They have fun by arguing about their good looks. The leopard is very proud of his good coat and says that the looks of the fox are not as good as it.

 

The fox is proud of his fine tail, but he is clever enough to see that his looks art not as good as the leopard's. "You may have a very good coat," the fox says, "but you will be much better if you have a little more smartness inside your head. That's what I call real beauty."

 

The story tells us: A fine coat is not always an indication of an attractive mind.

 

狐狸和美洲豹享受了丰盛的晚餐后在休息的时候，他们对于谁更美丽展开了一场有趣的争论，美洲豹对于他的外皮感到很骄傲，他说狐狸没有他这样好看。

 

狐狸很满意自己的美丽的尾巴，他看起来可能不如美洲豹美丽，但是他却很聪明。“你可能有非常好看的外皮”，狐狸说，“但是如果你头脑能更加聪明点，那才是真正的美丽。”

 

这个故事告诉我们，好的外表并不总是代表美丽的心灵。
