Once, a butterfly was flying up
and down among the flowers. She saw a baby elephant coming down the way, so she
flew to him and sat on his ear. The elephant asked, "Who are you?"
The butterfly proudly said,
"I am the most beautiful butterfly. You are ugly and heavy, while I am
beautiful and light. All people like my colorful wings. I can fly anywhere with
them."
The elephant said politely,
"I am glad to meet you."
The butterfly went on,
"There is no comparison(比较)between us. You have four legs, but I have six. You have a long
nose, and I have something like that too. I can use it to get nectar(花蜜) from flowers, but you can't.
Just then, a strong wind blow.
The butterfly could not keep her balance(平衡)in the wind and cried for help, while the elephant stood firmly(稳当地)on the ground and thought, "I can see how pride(骄傲)has a fall.
