1、英语
Once upon a time, in a cold winter, the farmer who had gone home from the market found a snake on the roadside.
He thought it was frozen and stiff, so he put it in his arms and let it wake up. The snake was frightened, and when it fully recovered, it instinctively bit the farmer and finally killed the farmer.
Before he died, the farmer regretted very much and said sadly, "I want to do good, but because of my shallow knowledge, I hurt my life, so I got this kind of reward."

从前，在一个寒冷的冬天，赶集完回家的农夫在路边发现了一条蛇，以为它冻僵了，于是就把它放在怀里，让它苏醒过来。蛇受到了惊吓，等到完全苏醒了，便本能地咬了农夫，最后杀了农夫。
农夫临死之前非常后悔伤心地说：“我想要做善事，却由于见识浅薄而害了自己的性命，因此遭到了这种报应啊。”

The story is that a man must distinguish between good and evil, and only extend his helping hand to good people.
For those wicked people, their nature will not change even if they are benevolent and righteous.
If you don't know the identity of others and the sincerity of others'hearts, don't trust others at will.
Bad people won't be moved by your enthusiasm. We should be careful, but don't spare the help of good people.
