在一个万里无云、风和日丽的下午，一只飞了一上午的乌鸦十分口渴，到处找水喝。
On a cloudless and sunny afternoon, a crow that had been flying all morning was very thirsty and searched for water everywhere.
在一条小河边，有一个被人喝了一半水的水瓶，乌鸦把尖尖的嘴巴伸进瓶口，可是不管乌鸦怎么把嘴往里伸，就是喝不到瓶子里的水。乌鸦非常着急。
By a small river, there is a water bottle that has been half drunk by someone. A crow sticks its pointed mouth into the bottle, but no matter how much it tries to put its mouth inside, it cannot drink the water in the bottle. The crow is very anxious.
乌鸦灵机一动，想到可以把石子放入瓶子，这样水面就会上升。乌鸦开始到处找小石子。
The crow had a sudden idea and thought of putting stones into a bottle so that the water level would rise. The crow began to search for small stones everywhere.
乌鸦飞到一条小河边，那里有很多小石子安静地躺在河岸上。乌鸦叼起一个小石子就往回飞，来来回回几十次，每一次从小河飞到瓶子边都很累。可它就是忘了小河边也有水。
The crow flew to a small river, where many small stones lay quietly on the riverbank. The crow picked up a small stone and flew back and forth dozens of times, feeling tired every time it flew from the small river to the bottle. But it just forgot that there is also water by the small river.
最后，乌鸦用小石子把瓶子填满了，也依旧没有喝到水。乌鸦十分沮丧，心想，这下完了，今天我不会就要渴死在这儿了吧？
Finally, the crow filled the bottle with small stones, but still couldn't drink water. The crow was very frustrated and thought to itself, 'Now that it's over, I'm not going to die of thirst here today, am I?'?
乌鸦只好接着寻找水源。当乌鸦再一次路过河边时，一下子想起来，为什么不到河边喝水呢？乌鸦飞到河边，把头一下子伸到河里，大口喝起水来。
The crow had to continue searching for a water source. When the crow passed by the river again, it suddenly remembered, why not go to the river to drink water? The crow flew to the river and plunged its head into the river, taking big sips of water.
