One day, a monkey and a turtle ran a race. The monkey said, ―I am big, I can run fast. I will win." The turtle said, ―I am small. I am slow. But I will do my best." The monkey ran faster than the turtle. Then the monkey’s friend, the rabbit came out. The rabbit said to the monkey, ―let’s play! “The monkey thought he would win anyway. So he played with the rabbit. The turtle ran slowly. But he ran and ran. Finally the turtle won. The turtle shouted, ―I won! ” The monkey was still playing with the rabbit. Then the monkey found the turtle. He was very surprised. But it was too late.

A little mouse thought he was the tallest and strongest animal in the world. His mother said to him, "Don't say that in front of an elephant. He doesn't like that." The little mouse didn't listen to his mother. He went out to look for the elephant, but he didn't know who the elephant was. He asked an ant(蚂蚁) first, "Are you an elephant?" "No, I'm not," said the ant. "An elephant is much bigger than I am." Suddenly(突然), he saw four big trees. "Let me climb up(爬上) a tree. Then I can see where the elephant is," said the little mouse. "Get down! Get down!" someone shouted(喊) to him. "I'm the elephant. Go and climb that tall tree nearby. Then you can see me." "Now, I see. The elephant is the tallest and strongest animal in the world," said the little mouse.
