双语故事 小马过河(2)
The squirrel shouted，“Colt， stop！ You'll drown！ One of my friends drowned just yesterday in the river.” Not knowing what to do，the colt went home to consult his mom.
He told his mom his experience on the way. His mother said，“My child， don't always listen to others. You'd better go and try yourself. Then you'll know what to do.”
Later， at the river，the squirrel stopped the colt again. “Little horse， it's too dangerous！”
“No， I want to try myself”， answered the colt. Then he crossed the river carefully.
On the other side of the river， the colt realized that the river was neither as shallow as the cow said nor as deep as the squirrel told him.
You see， real knowledge comes from practice.
