Have you heard this short story? It's about a deer (梅花鹿) who lived in the forest. He had large and beautiful antlers (鹿角). The antlers protected him from being hurt by other animals, so he was always because of them.
One day, the deer went to a river to drink water. The water was clear that it was like a mirror (镜子). When the deer looked at himself in the water, he smiled. "I look like king," he said, "And this forest is my country." Then he noticed something else." My legs are thin and my feet are small," he said. "They look so weak. I hate."
While the deer was thinking this, he felt something strange. A hungry tiger was behind a tall tree near the river. As as the deer saw the tiger, he ran away quickly. The tiger ran after him and tried to catch him.
to his thin legs, the deer reached the trees first. But his large antlers got stuck in (卡住) some small sticks of the trees. He couldn't move at all and then the tiger came and caught him.
The deer cried out, "I love my antlers, but they made me into trouble. Though I hated my legs and feet, they helped me run faster and jumped over stones. I was so! In fact, they are all important to me!"
