少儿英语故事:Fox　and　Grapes

　　A　hungry　fox　saw　some　ripe　black　grapes　hanging　from　a　vine　on　a　very　tall　tree.　He　jumped　and　jumped，　trying　to　reach　them.　Again　and　again，　he　jumped，　but　no　matter　how　much　he　tried，　he　could　not　reach　them.　They　were　too　high　for　him.　Finally，　in　order　to　hide　his　disappointment，　he　decided　he　did　not　really　want　the　grapes.　He　went　off　and　comforted　himself　by　saying，　"I　am　sure　they　were　not　ripe　anyway."　From　this　fable，　we　get　the　saying：　"They　are　sour　grapes".
