Plugging One's Ears While Stealing a Bell During the Spring and Autumn period,Zhi Bo of the Spring and Autumn period,Zhi Bo of the State of Jin destroyed Fan's family.Taking advantage of this occasion,a man went to Fan's house and tried to steal something.As soon as the man entered the gate,he saw that there hung a big bell in the courtyard.The bell was cast in high-quality bronza,and was beautiful in design and shape.The theif was very glad,and decided to carry this beautiful bell back home. But no matter how hard he tried,he could not move the bell, because the bell was both big and heavy.He thought and thought again, and believed there was only one way to solve the problem.He had to break the bell to pieces before he was able to carry them back to his home separately. The thief found a big iron hammer, with which he struck the bell with all his might. The striking produced an enormous crashing sound, which might. The striking produced an enormous crashing sound, which made the thief terribly frightened. The thief got flurried, thinking that it was too bad to have produced the crashiing sound which would himself on the bell, trying to muffle the crashing sound with his arms. But how could the crashing sound of the bell be muffled? The crashing sound still kept drifting melodiously to distant places. The more he listened to the sound, the more frightened hw became. He xubconsciously shrank back, and covered his ears hard with his hands." Hey, the sound becomes fainter, inaudible,"the thief became cheerful at once," wonderful! The sound of the bell can not be heard when the ears are covered."He immediately got some odd bits of cloth, made two rolls with them, and had his ears plugged with the two cloth rolls.He thought that in this way nobody could hear the sound of the bell.Feeling relieved,he began striking the bell,one blow after another.The resounding sound of the bell was heard at distant places,and finally people caught the thief by gracing the sound. This story comes from"Knowing Yourself" in The Annals by Buwei,written just before the Qin Dynasty(221-207 B.C.)was founded.Allegedly,when Li Yuan,Emperor Gao Zu of the Tang Dynasty(618-907),read this story,he felt it simply ridiculous and said,"This is what is called plugging one's ears while stealing a bell." Later,people have used the set phrase "plugging one's ears while stealing a bell" to refer to the ignorance and foolishness of the person who deceives himself as well as others.。

once upon a time there was a stupid man. His neighbor bought a nice bell. The stupid man liked it very much and wanted to steal it. One silent night, he went to his neighbor's house. He tried to get the bell off. But the bell rang the moment he touched it. He was afraid that someone would hear it. So he covered his ears and got the bell down. When he was complacent about his cleverness, a lot of people came to the gate and caught him。
耳盗铃 -Ostrich Logic (Yan Er Dao Ling) At the time when Fan, a nobleman of the state of Jin, became a fugitive, a commoner found a bell and wanted to carry it off on his back. But the bell was too big for him. When he tried to knock it into pieces with a hammer there was a loud clanging sound. He was afraid that someone will hear the noise and take the bell from him, so he immediately stopped his own ears.To worry about other people hearing the noise is understandable, but to worry about himself hearing the noise (as if stopping his own ears would prevent other people from hearing) is absurd。
从前,有一个人很愚蠢又很自私,他还有一个爱占便宜的坏毛病。
凡是 他喜欢的东西,总是想尽办法把它弄到手,甚至是去偷。有一次,他看中了一家大门上挂的铃铛。
这只门的铃铛制作得十分精致, 好看,声音也很响亮。他想,怎么样才能弄到手呢?最后决定,把它偷走。
他知道,只要用手去碰这个铃铛,就会"叮零叮零"地响起来。门铃 一响,耳朵就会听到铃铛的响声,有了响声,就会被人发现了。
那可就得不 到铃铛了。那怎么办呢? 他突然想出了一个办法。
他认为,门铃一响,耳朵就会听见了 ,如果把自己的耳朵掩住,不是就听不见了么?于是,他自作聪明地采用这 个方法去偷门铃。 有一天晚上,他借着月光,蹑手蹑脚地来到这家大门前。
他伸手 向上摘铃铛,但是,门铃挂得太高了,怎么也够不着,他只好扫兴地回来了。 回到家,他又想该怎么办呢? 他想叫邻居聋子一起去偷铃铛,踩着他的肩膀就能够摘到铃铛了。
可是又怕别人不干,不和他一起偷东西,只好自己踩着凳子摘铃铛吧。 第二天晚上,他带着凳子,又蹑手蹑脚地来到这家大门口。
他踩 着凳子,一手掩住自己的耳朵,一手摘这只铃铛。谁知他刚碰到铃铛,铃铛响了, 这家主人发觉后,就把他抓住了。
因为别人的耳朵并没有被掩住,仍然能 够听到铃铛的响声。
The Deceive oneself story tell us we can't self-deceiving,and I think the thief is too foolish to steal the things he haven't got.We can not be a bad person, beacuse good is rewarded with good, evil will be requited with evil. The good person will have the good newspaper finally.。
Stealing the Bell(掩耳盗铃) After the fall of the house of Fan, a man got hold of a bronze bell. It was too big to carry on his back, and when he tried to break it with a hammer it made such a din that he feared others might hear and take it away from him. So he hastily stopped his ears. "It was all right to worry about others hearing the noise, but foolish to stop his own ears."。
