Kong Rong gave away bigger pears
孔融讓梨
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a person called Kong Rong. He was very smart ever since he was a little boy. He had five older brothers and one younger brother。
東漢時候，有個叫孔融的人。他小時候很聰明，有五個哥哥，一個弟弟。
One day his father bought some pears, picking one of the largest and giving it to Kong Rong deliberately. But Kong Rong shook his head and picked up the smallest one。
一天爸爸買了一些梨子，特意撿了一個最大的給孔融，孔融卻搖頭不要，拿了一個最小的梨。
His dad was very curious, and asked: “Why?”爸爸很好奇，就問：“為什么呢?”
Kong Rong said: “I am younger, so I should eat the smaller pear, and brothers should eat the bigger ones。”
孔融說：“我年紀小，我吃小梨，大的給哥哥吃。”
His dad was very glad after hearing his words, but asked further: “What about your younger brother who is younger than you are?”
爸爸聽后很高興，又問：“那弟弟比你還小呀?”
Kong Rong said: “I am older than him, so I should leave the bigger one to my little brother。”
孔融說：“我比弟弟大，我是哥哥，我應該把大的留給小弟弟吃。”
Later, Kong Rong became a great scholar。
后來，孔融成為了一個很有學問的人。
“孔融讓梨”這個故事告訴我們，凡事應該懂得謙讓的禮儀，英語中表達“謙讓謙遜”等意思可以用“modest”，有一句叫做“Modest is Hottest”，也就是“謙虛最迷人”~
