狐貍和老虎

一天清晨，當太陽在天空升起，小鳥在樹上歌唱的時候，狐貍走進了森林，他饑腸轆轆，出來尋找食物。突然，一只老虎站在他面前說：“哈！哈！我正在找吃的，你就來到我的面前。對不起，我必須吃掉你，你是送上門的早餐。”

狐貍先是吃了一驚，然后問：“你知道我是誰嗎？”

老虎說：“你是狐貍。”

“不，我是森林大王。”狐貍說。

“不可能，我才是森林的大王，所有的動物都怕我。”老虎說。

“那么，”狐貍說，“讓我們一塊兒走走。我走在你前面，你可以走在我的后面。肯定你會發現所有的動物和鳥都怕我，而不是怕你。只要一看見我，他們很快就跑的跑，飛的飛。”

“好，走吧。”老虎說。

狐貍和老虎一塊兒走著。狐貍昂著頭走在老虎的前面，老虎把眼睛瞪得大大地走在狐貍的后面。他們從一處走到另一處。猴子看見他們來了，立刻爬上了樹；熊貓看見他們來了，立刻跑回家關上門；小鳥、鴨子看見他們來了，立刻飛走了；貓和狗看見他們來了，立刻跑開了。

狐貍轉過身，對老虎說：“看！他們全都害怕我。你一直走在我的后面，看見所有的動物都逃跑了，沒有一個敢呆在我周圍，這是因為我是森林的大王，他們都害怕我。你怎么敢吃我？”

老虎說：“對不起，狐貍先生。謝謝你讓我知道你是森林的大王，我完全錯了，我應該向你表達我對你的尊敬。再見。”

老虎走后，狐貍趕緊朝家里跑去，不敢有片刻停留。
