In old time, there was a man named Yue Guang. He was hospitable. One day he invited a friend to have a drink at his home. When they were drinking, his friend caught a glimpse of a small snake in his cup. Though disgusted, he still swallowed the wine down. As soon as he got home, he was ill. Several days later, Yue Guang knew of his friend’s illness and the cause. He thought that there couldn’t be a snake in the wine cup. So he went back to go over the place where they had the drink and finally he found the cause: there was a colourful bow on the wall of the hall, and the shadow of the bow happened to throw exactly at the place where his friend had put his wine cup. Yue Guang hurried to his friend’s home and told him about this. As soon as his friend came to understand that it was the reflection of a bow instead of a snake in his cup, he got over his illness at once. 故事梗概 乐广很好客。有一天，他邀请朋友在家里喝酒。 在喝酒的时候，他的朋友发现自己的酒杯里，似乎有一条小蛇。 尽管他心里很厌恶，但还是把酒喝了下去。不过，他总感到恶心，一回到家，就生病了。 隔了几天，乐广听到了朋友生病的消息和原因。 他心想酒杯里肯定不会有蛇！于是他跑到喝酒的地方去查看，终于找到了原因：原来，在大厅的墙上，挂着一张彩色的弓，弓的影子正好映在朋友放酒杯的地方。 乐广急忙跑到朋友家里，把这件事告诉了他。 朋友听了，才明白酒杯中的不是蛇，而是弓的影子。这样，他的病也就立刻好了。 难点点拨 hospitable热情好客的 catch a glimpse of瞥见 disgusted恶心的 swallow down吞下，咽下 as soon as一......就 go over检查 bow 弓 shadow 影子 happen to碰巧，恰巧 reflection 倒影 get over 恢复
