The Dog in the Manger马槽中的狗

A DOG lay in a manger, and by his growling and snapping prevented the oxen from eating the hay which had been placed for them. "What a selfish Dog!" said one of them to his companions; "he cannot eat the hay himself, and yet refuses to allow those to eat who can."

一条狗躺在马槽中,不停地叫,不让马吃干草。一匹马对同伴说:“这条狗太自私了! 他自己不会吃干草,还不让会吃的去吃。”

这故事是说那些总是不愿别人得到好处的人。
