The Rivals in the Life生活中的对手
Jaguar is an endangered animal. It is said that there are less than 20 jaguars in the world currently, one of which is now living in the national zoo of Peru. In order to protect this jaguar, Peruvians singled out a pitch of land in the zoo for it, where there are herds of cattle, sheep and deer for the jaguar to eat. Anyone who has visited the zoo praised it to be the "Heaven of Tiger". However, strange enough, no one has ever seen the jaguar prey on the cattle and sheep. What we could see is its lying in its house eating and sleeping.
美洲虎是一种濒临灭绝的动物，据说，目前世界上仅存不足20只，其中有一只现在就生活在秘鲁的国家动物园里。为了保护这只美洲虎，秘鲁人在动物园里单独为它圈出一块地来，且圈地中有成群的牛、羊、鹿供老虎事用。参观过虎园的人都惊叹地称这里是"虎的天堂"。然而，令人感到非常奇怪的是，没有人看见这只老虎去捕捉牛羊，能见到的就是它躺在它的虎房里重复着吃与睡的情景。
Some people thought that the jaguar felt toolonely， so they collected money and rented a female tiger to accompany it. Nonetheless, it did not make too much sense. The jaguar just sometimes went out of its house with its "girlfriend" and stayed in the sun for a while before it came back to its house again.
一些人认为肯定是美洲虎太孤独了，于是就集资从国外租来一只雌虎陪它生活。然而此举并未带来多大改观，那只老虎只是偶尔陪伴外来的"女友"走出虎房，到阳光下站一会儿，不久就又回到它的"卧室"。
"It is normal for the jaguar to be lazy in this environment. Tiger is the king of forest but you simply put some small animals around him. That is why the jaguar shows no interest in going out. Why don 't you put two wolves or at least a jackal around him?" A visitor proposed.
"在这种环境下，美洲虎不懒散才怪呢!虎是林中，你们在它周围放这么一群小动物，它怎么可能有兴趣走出来?为什么你们不放上两只狼呢，即使不放狼，至少也得放一只翁狗吧?"一位来此参观的市民建议道。
Others all agreed with him and put five panthers into the jaguar's territory. Since then, the jaguar did not go back to its house any more. It either stands on top of the hill roaring or goes down from the hill strolling without sleeping all day long. It did not eat the meat provided by the zoo staff and has totally got back to its nature.
其他人都觉得他说得很有道理，就把5只美洲豹技进了虎园。结果就是，自那以后，美洲虎就再没回过虎房。它不是站在山顶长啸，就是从山上下来，在草地上游荡;它不再整日睡觉，也不再吃动物园的管理员送来的肉，它恢复了虎的本性。
