The Lion and the Fox Who were Afraid of the Mouse 怕老鼠的狮

The ray of the warm sunlight told us that it was spring. A lion was sleeping peacefully in the forest.

温暖的阳光告诉我们春天来了。一个狮子在森林里安静的睡觉。

 

While the lion was fast asleep, a mouse went on top of the lion. The bold mouse played happily on top of the lion. "Yuppie! This is really fun." The mouse ran around thumping¹ and stomping² here and there.

狮子很快就睡着了，一只老鼠沿着他的身体爬了上去。这只胆大的老鼠在狮子头顶上玩的特别开心。“哇哦，这里真好玩啊！”老鼠高兴的到处蹦蹦跳跳。

 

The lion was not able to sleep with all the racket. The lion knew that there was someone on top of him. So, the lion made a surprise attack and rolled on the ground.

狮子从吵闹声中醒来，狮子知道有什么东西在他脑袋上玩耍。所以突然在地上打了个滚儿，想吓一下头顶上的动物。

 

And the mouse fell over. When the lion saw the mouse he was relieved and said, "Whew! It was only a mouse."

老鼠不小心掉了下来，看到老鼠后狮子才放心的说道：“哦，原来是一只小老鼠啊！”

 

However, far away a fox had seen the scene. The fox laughed mockingly to the lion and said, "You're as big as a mountain and you're afraid of the mouse. You're a coward!" The fox kept making fun of the Lion.

但是，不远处一只狐狸看到这一幕，便取笑狮子：“你这个山中之王居然害怕老鼠，原来你是个胆小鬼啊。”狐狸继续嘲笑着狮子。

 

Finally the lion spoke³, "I wasn't afraid of the mouse. I was only shocked to find a bold enough animal not afraid to run around on top of a lion." When the fox heard this he quietly left.

最后，狮子说：“我不是害怕老鼠，我只是惊讶谁这样大胆居然敢在睡觉的狮子身上玩。”狐狸听到这话后便悄悄地离开了。
