The Cat And The Mice

There was once a house that was overrun with Mice. A Cat heard of this and said to

herself "That's the place for me " and off she went and took up her quarters in the

house and caught the Mice one by one and ate them. At last the Mice could stand it

no longer and they determined to take to their holes and stay there. "That's

awkward " said the Cat to herself: "the only thing to do is to coax them out by a trick."

So she considered a while and then climbed up the wall and let herself hang down by

her hind legs from a peg and pretended to be dead. By and by a Mouse peeped out

and saw the Cat hanging there. "Aha!" it cried "you're very clever madam no doubt:

but you may turn yourself into a bag of meal hanging there if you like yet you won't

catch us coming anywhere near you."

If you are wise you won't be deceived by the innocent airs of those whom you have

once found to be dangerous.

译文：猫和老鼠

曾经有一所房子被老鼠占领。 一只猫听说了，对自己说：“那是适合我的地方，”她走了过去，并在房子里占据了她的住处，抓住了一只又一只老鼠然后吃掉它们。 老鼠终于受不了了，他们决心躲到洞里不出来。 “这很尴尬，”猫自言自语道：“唯一能做的就是用诡计把老鼠哄出来。” 于是她考虑了一会儿，爬上墙，把后腿挂在木桩上，假装死了。 不一会儿，一只老鼠往外窥视，看见猫挂在那里。 “啊哈！” 老鼠喊道，“你很聪明，猫夫人，这毫无疑问。但如果你愿意的话，你可以把自己变成一个袋美味挂在那里，然而你不会发现我们靠近你的任何地方。”

如果你是明智的，你就不会被曾经发现很危险的人所散发出来的无辜氛围所欺骗。
