愚蠢的狮子

The Foolish Lion

在一片森林里面,住着一头狮子。它慢慢地变老,再也跑不快了。时间一天天过去,捕猎对于它来说越来越困难。有一天,它想穿过森林去寻找食物的时候,刚好经过一个山洞。它向山洞里面看了看并嗅了嗅,自言自语道:“这里肯定有动物居住。”它悄悄摸进洞里却发现里面是空的。它想:“我要藏在里面,等它回来。”

In a forest, there lived a lion. He had grown old slowly and could not run fast anymore. As days went by, it became more and more difficult for him to hunt1.One day, while he was wandering through the forest in search of food, he came across a cave. He looked in and smelt the air inside the cave.“Some animal must be staying here,”he said to himself. He crept2 inside the cave only to find it empty.“I will hide inside and wait for the animal to return,”he thought.
