  The Crow and the Water Bottle

It was a scorching hot summer day. One crow was very thirsty. "I'm so thirsty." The thirsty crow roamed around looking for water. After flying for a long time, the crow found a water bottle in one of the farmer's yard. The crow was so happy that he was able to have a drink.

The crow put his beak into the bottle. However, because the bottle was so long, he was not able to reach the water. The crow was exhausted.

'Should I go some other place for a drink?' He thought. However, because his wings were damage, he was not able to move. "What shall I do?”

The crow flew round and round the farmer's yard, and thought. "Sure, that's what I will do." The crow had an idea.

With all his strength, the crow started picking up stones. "One, two." He did this several times until the bottle was filled with stones. Then the crow drank a lot of water. Finally, the crow had enough strength to fly again.

  Two Travelers and the Bear

Once upon a time, two young men were walking along the mountain trail. They were very close friends.

But, all of a sudden, a bear showed up. Shocked, the young men were looking for a place to hide. One fellow hid himself by climbing up a tree, but the other one was unable to run away.

When the bear pounced upon him, the fellow who could not run away threw himself flat down upon the ground and pretended to be dead. The young man on the ground held his breath and stayed still. The bear, coming up to him, put his muzzle close to the man, and sniffed. "He's dead. I don't eat dead meat."

The bear left the young man along and went away. After the bear was gone, the friend in the tree came down. Wiping away his cold sweat, the friend asked, "What did the bear say to you?"

"Oh, the bear told me", said the other, "Not to hang out with a friend who runs away when a risky situation occurs."

After hearing him, the young man who climbed up the tree alone felt sorry for his behavior. Friends mean being there for each other even when danger comes.

  參考翻譯

從前,有兩個年輕人沿著山路散步。他們是非常親密的朋友。

但是,突然,一隻熊出現了。震驚,年輕人正在尋找一個藏身之地。一個人爬上一棵樹,自己藏起來了,但另一個人卻無法逃跑。

當熊撲向他,他也跑不掉把自己放平在地上,假裝死了。地上的年輕人屏住呼吸,靜靜地躺著。熊,向他撲來,把他的嘴接近他,聞一聞。”他死了。我不吃死肉。”

熊離開了年輕人走了。熊走後,樹上的朋友下來了。擦去他的冷汗,朋友問:“熊對你說了什麼?”

“哦,熊告訴我,”另一個說,“不要和一個在危險的情況下逃跑的朋友出去玩。”

聽到他之後,那個獨自爬上樹的年輕人為他的行為感到難過。朋友意味著彼此存在,即使危險來臨。
