Fox and Cock 狐狸和公鸡

One morning a fox sees a cock. He thinks，“This is my breakfast.”

He comes up to the cock and says，“I know you can sing very well. Can you sing for me?”The cock is glad and closes his eyes and begins to sing.The fox sees that and catches him in his mouth and carries him away.

The people in the field see the fox. They cry，“Look, look！The fox is carrying the cock away.”The cock says to the fox，“Mr.Fox, do you understand?The people say you are carrying their cock away.Tell them it is yours, not theirs.”

The fox opens his mouth and says，“The cock is mine, not yours.”Just then the cock runs away from the fox and flies into the tree.

一天早上，一只狐狸看到了一只公鸡。它心想：这就是我的早餐了。

它朝公鸡走去，对它说：“我知道，你歌唱得非常好听，你能唱给我听吗？”公鸡很高兴，闭上眼睛就开始唱。狐狸看到就一下子逮住公鸡，叼着走了。

在田地里的人们看到了狐狸，大声喊道：“看，看！狐狸抓着公鸡逃走了。”公鸡对狐狸说：“狐狸先生，你能理解吗？人们认为你叼走了他们的公鸡。告诉他们这是你的，不是他们的。”

狐狸张开嘴说：“公鸡是我的，不是你们的。”就在那时，公鸡趁机逃脱，飞到树上去了。
