四年级英语盲人摸象的主要内容

once upon a time, four blind people wanted to know what an elephant looked like, but they couldn't see it and had to touch it with their hands. 

从前，有四个盲人很想知道大象是什么样子，可他们看不见，只好用手摸。

The fat blind first touched the elephant's teeth. He said, "I see, the elephant is like a big, thick, smooth radish."

胖盲人先摸到了大象的牙齿。他就说：“我知道了，大象就像一个又大、又粗、又光滑的大萝卜。”

The tall blind man touched the elephant's ears. "No, no, the elephant is obviously a big cattail fan!"

高个子盲人摸到的是大象的耳朵。“不对，不对，大象明明是一把大蒲扇嘛！”

He shouted. "You're just saying that elephants are just big pillars."

他大叫起来。“你们净瞎说，大象只是根大柱子。”

It turned out that the short blind man touched the elephant's leg. But the old blind man grumbled, "Well, an elephant is not that big, it's just a straw rope."

原来矮个子盲人摸到了大象的腿。而那位年老的盲人呢，却嘟嚷：“唉，大象哪有那么大，它只不过是一根草绳。”

It turned out that he had touched the tail of an elephant. Four blind men quarreled and said that what they felt was what the elephant really looked like. And actually? None of them was right.

原来他摸到的是大象的尾巴。四个盲人争吵不休，都说自己摸到的才是大象真正的样子。而实际上呢？他们一个也没说对。

Then we use the metaphor of "the blind touch the image" to look at the problem i

n order to generalize the whole.

后以“盲人摸象”比喻看问题以偏概全。
