“爲什麼你只有一個孩子，夫人?”雌狐狸問，“看我這羣健康的孩子，如果有能力，一個驕傲的媽媽應該多養一些孩子。”

一個炎熱的夏日，狐狸走過一個果園，他停在一大串熟透而多汁的葡萄前。
"I’m just feeling thirsty," he thought. So he backed up a few paces, got a running start, jumped up, but could not reach the grapes.
狐狸想：“我正口渴呢。”於是他後退了幾步，向前一衝，跳起來，卻無法夠到葡萄。
He walked back. One, two, three, he jumped up again, but still, he missed the grapes.
