在一个超市的冷冻柜里，摆着很多品种的汤圆。
In the freezer of a supermarket, there are many kinds of rice dumpling.
一个水晶汤圆看了一眼身边平平无奇的普通汤圆，不屑地说道：”你看看你长得多么普通，不像我，比你不知道好看多少倍。”
A crystal rice dumpling took a look at the ordinary rice dumpling beside him and said with disdain, "Look how ordinary you look, unlike me, many times more beautiful than you don't know."
普通汤圆说：“我在每年的元宵节，每家每户的桌子上都有我。”
Ordinary rice dumpling said, "I am on the table of every family on the Yuanxiao (Filled round balls made of glutinous rice-flour for Lantern Festival) every year."出自 wwW.zuoWEnBA.nEt
“我不管，我们两比比，看谁最吸引人。”
I don't care, let's compare and see who is the most attractive
正巧来了一位母亲正带着孩子来买汤圆，那个孩子拿起冷冻柜里的水晶汤圆，说道：“妈妈，我要买这个。”水晶汤圆对普通汤圆说：“看见没？他一来就要买我。”母亲拿起了普通汤圆，两份汤圆都付了钱就回家煮了。
It happened that a mother was bringing her child to buy rice dumpling. The child picked up the crystal rice dumpling in the freezer and said, "Mom, I want to buy this." The crystal rice dumpling said to the ordinary rice dumpling, "See? He will buy me as soon as he comes." The mother picked up the ordinary rice dumpling, paid for both rice dumpling and went home to cook them.
煮完后，那个孩子赶紧跑到锅前一看，之前兴奋的心情瞬间变成了失望。原来那个水晶汤圆全都烂了，稀稀的一碗汤。大家把普通汤圆全吃了，只留下了那锅被水晶汤圆弄得又粘又稠的汤。
After cooking, the child quickly ran to the pot to take a look, and his previously excited mood instantly turned into disappointment. It turned out that the crystal rice dumpling was all rotten, a thin bowl of soup. Everyone ate all the ordinary rice dumpling, leaving only the pot of soup made sticky and thick by the crystal rice dumpling.
这个故事告诉我们。不管什么东西，都不能仅要外在美，也要内在美。人要做有用的人，不要做不为他人奉献，且对社会没有用处的人。
This story tells us. No matter what, it should not only have external beauty, but also internal beauty. People should be useful people, not those who are not dedicated to others and are of no use to society.
