A CROW perishing with thirst saw a pitcher1, and hoping to find
water, flew to it with delight. When he reached it, he
discovered to his grief that it contained so little water that he
could not possibly get at it. He tried everything he could think
of to reach the water, but all his efforts were in vain. At last
he collected as many stones as he could carry and dropped them
one by one with his beak2 into the pitcher, until he brought the
water within his reach and thus saved his life.
Necessity is the mother of invention. 一只渴得要死的乌鸦看到了一只pitcher1 ,希望能找到水,高兴地飞向它。到了那里,他才悲痛地发现里面只有那么少的水,他根本拿不到。他想尽一切办法来到水边,但所有的努力都白费了。在拉斯特收集了尽可能多的石头,然后把石头一块一块地扔进水罐里,直到他把水带到够得着的地方,这样才救了他的命。需要是发明之母。
