But soon the lion seemed to recover, and went to the mouth of his cave. He saw a fox waiting outside. "Why don’t you come in?“ asked the lion to the fox. “I beg Your Majesty’s pardon,“ said the fox, “I have seen many animals enter your cave, but none of them come out. Till they come out again, I prefer to wait outside."

老獅子與狐貍
一頭年老的獅子聲稱(chēng)自己病得要死了，他告訴所有的動(dòng)物來(lái)聽(tīng)他的臨終遺言。 一只山羊進(jìn)入獅子的洞穴，并一直留在那里，接著一只綿羊也進(jìn)去了。之前，一只兔子也曾進(jìn)去聽(tīng)這獸中的臨終遺言。 但是不久，獅子好像康復(fù)了，能走到洞口了，他看到狐貍站在洞口，就問(wèn)：“你為什么不進(jìn)來(lái)呢?” “尊敬的殿下，”狐貍回答說(shuō)，“如果我沒(méi)發(fā)現(xiàn)只有進(jìn)去的腳印，沒(méi)有一個(gè)出來(lái)的腳印，我也許會(huì)進(jìn)洞去�！�
【篇二】
A wolf wanted to eat the sheep, but he was afraid of the vigilant shepherd and his dogs. One day the wolf found the skin of a sheep. He put it on and walked among the sheep. A lamb thought that the wolf was its mother because his skin looked like hers. So it followed the wolf. Soon after they had left the dogs, the wolf came at the lamb and ate it up. For some time he succeeded in deceiving the sheep, and enjoying hearty meals.
