The Panda in China
A panda looks like a little bear. It has black and white fur. It lives only in China, so it is called the national treasure of China and protected by the law.
We all see panda on TV or in the zoo. They look stupid and walk slowly, but they are lovely and everyone likes them.
A panda is lucky animal. We Chinese like it, and people of the world like it, too. Now there are China’s pandas in many other countries, such as Japan and the USA…
A panda isn’t a common animal, it is bridge of friendship.
中国熊猫
熊猫看起来好像一只小熊。它的皮毛是黑白相间。 它只居住在中国，因此，它是中国的国宝，受到国家法律的保护。
我们在电视上或在动物园里能看到熊猫。他们看起来显得很笨的样子，走起来很缓慢，但很可爱，大家都很喜欢它们。
熊猫是个吉祥的动物。中国人民喜欢它，世界人民也喜欢它。现在许多国家都有中国的熊猫，如，日本、美国……
熊猫不是一种普通的动物，而是一座友谊的桥梁。
THE BAT AND THE WEASELSA
Bat falling upon the ground was caught by a Weasel, ofwhom he earnestly besought his life. The Weasel refused,saying, that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. TheBat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, andthus saved his life.
蝙蝠和鼠狼
一只蝙蝠坠落到地面上来，被一只鼠狼捉住了，蝙蝠哀求讨饶。鼠狼不答应，说它自己最爱和鸟类为敌。蝙蝠便证明它自己不是鸟，只是一只老鼠，因此鼠狼就放了它。
Shortly afterwards the Bat again fellon the ground, and was carght by another Weasel, whom helikewise entreated not to eat him. The Weasel said that hehad a special hostility to mice. The Bat assured him thathe was not a mouse, but a bat; and thus a second timeescaped.It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.
不久这只蝙蝠又坠落到地上来，被另一只鼠狼捉住，它同样地哀求讨饶。那鼠狼说它自己最恨老鼠，蝙蝠证明自己并不是老鼠，而是一只蝙蝠;因此，它第二次又安然地逃离危险了。随机应变乃聪明之举。
