    Once upon a time, there was a shepherd who kept several sheep.

一天早上，他发现少了一只羊。原来羊圈破了个窟窿，夜间狼从窟窿里钻进来把羊叼走了。

    His neighbor suggested to him: "You should fix the pen and cover the hole right away."

邻居劝告他说：“赶快把羊圈修一修，堵上那个窟窿吧。”

    But the shepherd said: "The sheep is already lost, so I don't need to repair it." And so he rejected the neighbor's suggestion.

他说：“羊已经丢了，还修羊圈干什么呢？”他没接受邻居的劝告。

     The next morning, he discovered that another sheep was missing.Once again, the wolf stole the sheep through the hole in the fence.

第二天早上，他去放羊，发现又少了一只羊。原来狼又从窟窿里钻进来把羊叼走了。

    From then on, no more sheep was stolen by the wolf.
