《原来如此的故事》是英国小说家吉卜林为了解答女儿及其他小朋友问的许多为什么的问题，而创作的故事，比如：骆驼为什么有驼峰？豹子身上的黑斑是怎么来的？鲸鱼的咽喉为什么很小？犀牛皮为什么有许多皱褶？大象的鼻子为什么那么长？等等。故事的语言非常搞笑，读起来觉得非常有趣。对于大象的鼻子为什么这么长，他是这样解释的：有一只很爱问问题的小象在一天洗澡的时候突然问起鳄鱼最爱吃什么，被打了一顿。为了找到答案，他决定亲自去问问鳄鱼最爱吃什么。没想到，鳄鱼咬住了它的鼻子，小象使劲往岸上拉，鳄鱼拼命往水里拉，往拉一下，小象的鼻子就被拉长一点，最后小象快被拉进水里的时候，蟒蛇卷住了它的腿，一起用力，小象才没被吃掉。所以这只小象的鼻子就被拉长了。别的大象发现长鼻子的好处，于是都去问鳄鱼喜欢吃什么，这样都从鳄鱼那儿得到了长鼻子。从那时起，所有大象的鼻子就都变成了长鼻子。原来如此！可笑吧。
　　虽然我现在知道这些都是哄小孩子的，可是我还是很喜欢看，读起来还真挺有意思，挺轻松的咧。我也很佩服这位作家的想象力。

this winter, I read the book of Robinson Crusoe, their captors.
Article describes multiple sailing in the whole island, Crusoe masters of extraordinary survival 28 years experience, strive for survival, show the ingenuity and a man with indomitable perseverance in the face of hardship persistent existence desire, the lonely and eager to rescue the mood. In a lonely island overcome Robinson was done with fear, a savage and said he was "on Friday, they get along with each other, then built on Friday, Crusoe one kind of warm friendship." I also enjoy the disclosure of the business concept: Crusoe each sailing and adventure has clear commercial purpose, with his own property and calculating profit, he will also oneself life the island is his territory, in addition to reveal its economic thought, I admire John Robinson's rich, more learning his strong initiative and spirit of adventure, early efforts, hard work, and perfect kindness thought!《鲁兵逊漂流记》
