狐貍與山羊
The Fox and the Goat
One day, a fox fell into a deep well and could not get out. A thirsty goat looked down into the well. He saw the fox. How is the water? asked the goat.
The water is cool and delicious, said the clever fox. Come in and have a drink! The goat was terribly thirsty. He jumped into the well without giving it a second thought. But how will I get out? asked the goat.
Well help each other, said the fox. Put your front feet on the wall. I will climb up your back. Then I will help you get out.
The goat agreed. He placed his feet on the wall. The fox quickly climbed out and started to run away. Come back! cried the goat. I cant get out of the well by myself!
The fox turned back and said, You silly old goat! Jump into the well was a foolish decision. You should always think twice before you act.

Language Notes
解析：
second thought 字面上指第二個(gè)想法，實(shí)際上就是指從新考慮重新思考，常用以下的片語(yǔ)：
Without a second thought 毫不從新考慮;想都不想
Alan lent him the money without a second thought.
艾倫想都沒(méi)想就把錢給他了。
on second thought 重新考慮以后改做某事
I want vanilla ice cream. On second thought, Ill have chocolate ice cream, instead.
我要香草冰淇淋。等等，我要巧克力的好了。
補(bǔ)充：
講到對(duì)某件事多考慮一下，中文常說(shuō)三思而后行， 而英文里則是用think twice來(lái)表示喔!
You should think twice before driving in this weather.
在這樣的天氣里開(kāi)車，你應(yīng)該再考慮一下啊!
