知性英语-The clever monkey(在线收听

 

  An old tiger lives in the forest. He does not want to look for food now. He often tells other animals to bring him something to eat.

  He sees a monkey and says," I'm hungry, monkey. Go to the village and bring me a fat pig."

  "Oh, Tiger," says the monkey. "I can't do that now. There is another tiger over there. He also wants a fat pig. He will not let me get anything for you to eat. I am afraid of him."

  "What?" cries the tiger. "Show me that tiger. I will talk to him."

  "Come with me," says the monkey.

  The monkey and the tiger get to a bridge over the river. "Now look down at the water," says the monkey.

  "Do you see the hand, the white teeth and the large green eyes of a tiger?"

  "Yes, I do," cries the old tiger," I will eat him up!"

  With these words, the tiger jumped into the river.
