This is about a wolf falling into a trap and trying to get the old goat to save him through deception and threats. But the old goat recognized it as a bad wolf from its rhetoric and hard tail, and was not deceived. The author is Yan Wenjing, a famous modern children's writer.
A wolf fell into a trap and couldn't jump out. Later, an old goat came slowly, and the wolf quickly greeted the old goat: "Good friend! Help me and take me out! "
The old goat asked, "Who are you? Why did you run into the trap set by the hunter? "
The wolf immediately put on an honest and pitiful look and said, "don't you know me?" A loyal and docile dog, I jumped desperately to save a chicken that fell here. But the chicken is out, but I can't go out anymore. Alas! Have pity on my kind dog! "
The old goat looked at him a few times, but some didn't believe him and said, "Are you really a dog?" ? Why do you look like a wolf? Why are you looking at me like a wolf? "
The wolf quickly closed his eyes and said, "I am a wolf … a wolf … a dog, so I look like a wolf." However, please believe that mine is really a dog. I have a gentle disposition. I can also wag my tail. I don't believe you. Look how well my tail wags. "
In order to prove his words, the wolf shook his hard tail a few times. "poop, poop!" Its tail knocked down some clods in the trap.
The old goat quickly stepped back and said, "Yes, you can wag your tail. But not all dogs wag their tails. You said, are you really a German shepherd? "
The wolf is getting impatient: "Yes, yes! I can swear. Come on, come on. As long as you stretch out your legs, I will be saved at once. I'll pay you back as soon as I get out. For example, I can lick your hair and help you bite lice. Really, I like sheep very much, especially goats. "
The old goat still hesitated and took a step back: "No, I have to think about it."
At this time, the wolf couldn't bear it any longer and suddenly broke out. He grinned, bared his teeth and growled at the old goat, "you old man!" " Come and pull me out! "
The old goat looked at it calmly and answered slowly, "I'm not coming." Because you are a wolf. I see your sharp teeth. You bit me last winter and almost killed me. I will never forget it. You can't fool me by wagging your tail. Goodbye! "

The moral of this story:
This fable tells people that bad people like wolves, like wolves, and will never change their nature. We should be good at seeing through their disguise and not be deceived by illusion.
The reason why a wolf became a wolf, from the moment its ancestors began to eat meat, decided its predator status. In order to survive, the blood of wolves is full of factors of struggle all the time.
The reason why sheep become sheep, from the moment when their ancestors chose to eat grass for a living, decided their fate. On the vast grassland, there is grass everywhere, and you can fill your stomach with a moment's bow. Comfort has always been the killer of slackness and degenerate instinct. The lifestyle of sheep determines that they are chased characters.
Survival of the fittest is the core view of evolution and the unchangeable dogma of nature. Whoever can become the king of nature wins the priority of development. In the world where wolves live, the weak will be eliminated by history.
Among many excellent enterprises, enterprises that learn from wolves have become a prairie fire. Haier, Huawei, Volkswagen and FedEx all regard the wolf's tenacity, strong mentality, competitive consciousness, wisdom and team spirit as the "totem" of the individual and collective spiritual world.
People with a weak sense of crisis have a weak sense of survival, the less willingness to change, the weaker the motivation to innovate, and the more likely they are to be defeated in the torrent of competition. At this point, wolves can bring people a lot of inspiration:
A wolf is an animal that always keeps a sense of crisis. Wolves that can live for 89 years have experienced too many battles of life and death, and how many times have they saved their lives with their own bravery. The enemy left too many scars on them, and it was these scars that witnessed their tenacious vitality.
It is easy for us to imagine how bad the wolf's living environment is, so the wolf must always be on high alert, because danger is always around. As long as you relax a little, you are in danger of dying. If an enterprise does not have a sense of crisis, it will close down sooner or later, and if a person does not have a sense of crisis, it is impossible to predict.
Work style:
Yan Wenjing's early works are mainly essays and novels. There is an essay called "For People who Walk in a hurry", which shows readers how to treat time and life with vivid and appropriate metaphors.
The article writes: the stream flows into the sea from the lake and keeps running all the way; Meteorites across the sky, burning every minute; Their beauty and significance exist in the whole activity.
If we spend our whole life just waiting for the beautiful moment that may come at last and ignore the whole process of life, it is really stupid. The article is full of emotion and philosophy, and it is very infectious.
