Once upon a time, there was a humble rabbit who had very good manners. One day, he went to a farm to eat some vegetables. When his stomach was full he thought of leaving. Unexpectedly, he met a fox.
從前有一隻兔子,它非常謙虛,待人處世也彬彬有禮.有一天,它到農民的菜園裡去摘菜吃.當它把肚子填得脹鼓鼓的,正準備離開時,遇到了一隻狐狸.
The fox was on his way back to the forest. In fact, he tried to steal a chicken but in vain.
這隻狐狸正要返回森林.原本它是想到農家院子裡去偷只雞來,結果一無所獲.
He was starving! When the rabbit saw the fox, he was very frightened. He swiftly ran to a cave. Nevertheless, he felt that without permission he should not enter anyone's home.
它肚子餓極了. 兔子見到狐狸,心裡一驚,連忙飛快地跑向一個山洞.它知 道未經許可不能隨便進入別人的地方, "
I shall greet the cave before I go in, he thought. Thus, he said politely, "Dear Cave, how are You? May I come in?" The big snake inside was so pleased to hear the voice of the rabbit that he said, "
¨應當先跟山洞打個招呼," 兔子想.於是兔子彬彬有禮地說：¨親愛的山洞,你好啊!我可以進來嗎?" 洞裡的蛇聽出這是兔子的聲音,真是喜出望外,便回應道：
Hurry up and come in" At once the rabbit knew who was inside the cave. "Excuse me, " he said, "I think my mother is waiting for me at home. Farewell now " The rabbit swiftly turned and dashed off.
¨歡迎!快進來吧! 兔子一聽聲音就知道洞裡是誰了. ¨請原諒,¨兔子說,¨我想我媽媽還在家裡等我呢!再見!¨ 兔子一拔腿,便跑得不見蹤影.
The big snake curled himself up in the cave, feeling very frustrated He said. "Such a polite rabbit I shouldn't have answered him at all "
蛇在洞裡縮成一團,懊喪地說：¨這隻有禮貌的兔子,我真不該應聲啊!¨
