　The old cat 貓
　　An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.
　　Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young."
　　翻譯：
　　一位老婦有一只貓。貓很老，她無法運行很快，她咬不了，因為年紀太大了。有一天，老貓發(fā)現(xiàn)一只老鼠，她跳起來，抓住了老鼠。但她咬不了它，因此，老鼠從它的嘴邊溜掉了，因為老貓咬不了它。
