掩耳盜鈴：原為掩耳盜鐘。掩：遮蓋;盜：偷。把耳朵捂住偷鈴鐺，以為自己聽不見別人就會聽不見，比喻自欺欺人。
出處：《呂氏春秋·自知》：“范氏之亡也,百姓有得鐘者.欲負而走,則鐘大不可負;以椎毀之,鐘況然有音.恐人聞之而奪己也,遽掩其耳.惡人聞之,可也;惡己自聞之,悖矣。”
Once upon a time, a man saw a doorbell hanging from someone's door and wanted to steal it.
從前，有個人看見人家大門上掛著一只門鈴，就想把它偷來。
But he knew that if he were to steal the bell, it would start ringing the moment his hand touched it. If he were discovered, not only he couldn't get the bell, but he himself might also be caught.
但是，他知道，如果去偷這只門鈴，只要手一碰到，就會發出“鈴鈴鈴”的響聲。如被人發覺，不但偷不到鈴，而且還會被捉住。
He thought this over and said to himself:
他想了想，自言自語地說:
"Why will there be trouble when a bell rings? This is because our ears can hear it. If I cover my ears, I won't be able to hear it. This way I won't be caught."
“為什么鈴響了，就會闖出禍來呢?這是因為耳朵能聽見。假如把耳朵捂住，不是聽不見鈴聲了么?這樣，就不會被人家捉住了。”
Later, he eventually got an idea. He first covered his own ears, then went on to steal the bell. However, in the end he was still discovered and caught red-handed.
后來，他終于想出了一個辦法:先把自己耳朵捂住，再去偷那只門鈴。結果，他還是被人當場發現捉住了。
