掩耳盜鈴的成語故事

春秋時候， 晉國世家趙氏滅掉了範氏。 有人趁機跑到範氏家裡想偷點東西， 看見院子裡吊著一口大鐘。 鐘是用上等青銅鑄成的， 造型和圖案都很精美。 小偷心裡高興極了， 想把這口精美的大鐘背回自已家去。 可是鐘又大又重， 怎麼也挪不動。 他想來想去， 只有一個辦法， 那就是把鐘敲碎， 然後再分別搬回家。

小偷找來一把大錘子， 拼命朝鐘砸去， 咣的一聲巨響， 把他嚇了一大跳。 小偷著慌， 心想這下糟了， 這鐘聲不就等於是告訴人們我正在這裡偷鐘嗎？他心裡一急， 身子一下子撲到了鐘上，

他越聽越害怕， 不由自主地抽回雙手， 使勁捂住自已的耳朵。 “咦， 鐘聲變小了， 聽不見了！”小偷高興起來， “妙極了！把耳朵捂住不就聽不進鐘聲了嗎！”他立刻找來兩個布團， 把耳朵塞住， 心想， 這下誰也聽不見鐘聲了。 於是就放手砸起鐘來， 一下一下， 鐘聲響亮地傳到很遠的地方。 人們聽到鐘聲蜂擁而至把小偷捉住了。

Plugging One's Ears While Stealing a Bell

Once upon a time there was a very foolish thief. Do you know what he did one day? well, he wanted to steal the bell on his neighbor' s door. He walked up to the door, took hold of the bell and pulled hard. The bell made a very loud noise. The thief was frightened and ran home. Then he sat down to think. "I must do something about the noise, " he said. He thought and thought. At last he had an idea. "Ah, I' ll put some cotton in my ears. Then I won't be able to hear the noise. " The next day he went to the door of his neighbor' s house and took hold of the bell. This time he pulled even harder. The bell rang loudly but the thief did not hear anything. With another hard pull he got the bell out. Just then the neighbor came running out.

"Steal my bell? I' ll teach you a lesson, " the angry man shouted, and he hit the thief on the nose.

The foolish them did not know how the neighbor found out he was stealing the bell. "Why not he come out just then? " he wondered.

鐘的響聲是客觀存在的， 不管你是否捂住耳朵， 它都是要響的。 凡是客觀存在的東西， 它不會依人的主觀意志而改變。 有的人對對自己不利， 或不喜歡的客觀存在， 採取不承認的態度， 以為這樣做， 它就不存在了， 這和“掩耳盜鈴”一樣， 都是極端的主觀唯心主義——唯我論的表現。 小朋友們， 可千萬不要做這樣的人噢~
