　　：The Cats and The Corn

　　The cats from the cat village went to the river for a picnic.

　　A cat found a corn stalk***玉米杆*** .

　　What can the cats do with the corn stalk?

　　He must be hungry.He is eating the kernels of corn.

　　Oh,look!He stopped eating.

　　Meow made a new tooth from a kernel of corn!

　　This cat ate the ear of corn.

　　He made a harmonica***口琴*** out of the corncob.

　　Oh,look! The cats are brushing their teeth with the Harmonica.”Chi-ka,chi-ka.”Up and down,up and down.

　　That’s right. Teeth have to be cleaned after eating. Good cat!

　　The cats are thinking of something. They are full and have brushed their teeth.Now it’s time to play. What game can they play with the corn?

　　First, this cat is making a net with corn silks.

　　Yes!! He must be planning to catch his favorite fish.

　　The stalks and the leaves of the corn are being made into a sailboat. The corn stalks are woven into a raft. The sails are made by attaching the leaves.

　　“Lu=Lu,La-La!Lu-Lu,La-La!”

　　One cat plays the harmonica as the other cats ride on their sailboat. Another cat brought a net.

　　He is going to catch some fish. Aren’t they very funny cats?

　　：The Three Lazy Ones 三個懶漢

　　A king had three sons whom he loved equally well, and he did not know which of them toappoint as king following his own death.

　　When the time came for him to die he called them to his bed and said, “Dear children, I have thought of something that I will reveal to you. The one of you is the laziest shall become king after me.”

　　The oldest one said, “Father, then the kingdom belongs to me, for I am so lazy that whenever I lie down to sleep, and a drop falls into my eyes, I will not even close them so that I can fall asleep.”

　　The second one said, “Father, the kingdom belongs to me, for I am so lazy that when I am sitting by the fire warming myself, I would rather let my heels***高跟鞋，腳踝*** burn up than to pull my legs back.”

　　The third one said, “Father, the kingdom is mine, for I am so lazy that if I were going to be hanged and already had the rope around my neck, and someone put into my hand a sharp knife with which to cut the rope, I would let myself be hanged rather than to lift my hand up to the rope.”

　　When the father heard this he said, “You have taken it the farthest and shall be king.”

　　：The Story of Big Ears

　　This happened a long, long time ago. Humans had big ears then. And they would flap in the wind.

　　Their ears were so big that they found a use for them. Sometimes they would lie down upon one ear, using it as a mattress. Other times they would cover themselves up with the other ear. The ears were warm and soft blankets. The ears were very useful. With them, humans could hear really well, stay warm, and even, flap away the flies.

　　One day, something terrible happened. God was out hunting and he killed what he thought was an animal. He heard a scream from the point where he had sent his arrow. It did not sound like an animal at all. God rushed to the spot. He was horrified.

　　In front of him lay the injured human. God had mistaken man for an animal. It was the big ears that had fooled him. He became very sad. He had not meant to kill a human being. He had to do something so that he never made that mistake again.

　　To make up for his mistake, God cut off the man's big ears. He then brought him back to life. Since then, humans have had small ears. Now humans cannot hear as well as many animals, and they certainly need blankets to stay warm. Most of all, they cannot flap a fly away.

　　：How the First House was Built

　　A long time ago, humans were only as tall as hens and rabbits.

　　These tiny "humans", if you can call them that, lived under trees.

　　Living in trees was not very nice.

　　During rains they got wet. In summers they sweated madly, and in winter they almost froze into ice.

　　Life was tough.

　　So they started living in burrows, just the way rabbits do.

　　They thought that at least this way they will be dry in the rains. And in summer, they will be safe from the hot sun.

　　But, often, the roofs fell upon them without warning. They would get trapped inside, unable to come out.

　　Life was still tough.

　　Then the humans decided to make a tree house.

　　They created an umbrella of branches and leaves and lived under them.

　　The roof did not fall upon them.

　　Life became a bit better.

　　But the houses did not have any walls.

　　People continued to feel the heat and cold.

　　Finally, they learnt the trick of making walls.

　　They made the first real houses.

　　There was no doubt any more that it was a good life.

　　It became even better when the humans made houses close to each other so that they would never feel alone.
