The Wolf and the House Dog 家狗和狼 A tired and hungry Wolf is looking for food in the forest.
Wolf: Im so tired and hungry.
I looked for food all day.
But there is no food.
I cant even find a Rabbit.
Just then a little Rabbit hops by.
Wolf: Oh, look!
Its a Rabbit!
I will catch it and eat it for lunch.
The Rabbit sees the Wolf, too.
Rabbit: Its a Wolf!
I better run away!
Hey, but the Wolf looks really tired.
Yeah, he looks old and weak.
I bet Im faster than him.
I can easily run away from him.
Wolf: Stop there, little Rabbit!
Im going to catch you!
Rabbit: Go ahead and try!
I bet you cant catch me!
Im much faster than you.
Wolf: Well see about that!
The Wolf chases the Rabbit.
But the Rabbit is much faster.
The Wolf runs out of breath and the Rabbit hops away.
Wolf: Stop there, you little Rabbit!
Jeez!
I lost it.
It got away.
I am too old and weak now.
I cant even catch a little Rabbit.
I will starve to death for sure.
What shall I do?
Boo-hoo-hoo.
A House dog comes by.
Dog: Hey, Wolf, whats the matter?
Are you crying?
Wolf: Of course not.
Dog: Then, why are your eyes all red?
Wolf: Well, uhThats becauseNever mind.
Anyway, what is a Dog doing in the forest?
Dog: Oh, yes, I was about to ask you.
How can I find the village?
I got lost last night.
Wolf: Just walk down this road.
Dog: Oh, thank you very much.
I must be going now, good-bye.
The Dog walks down the road.
The Wolf just watches the Dog and his mouth waters.
Wolf: That Dog looks fat and delicious.
He would make a good lunch.
But I cant even catch a Rabbit.
How can I catch a Dog!
He looks very strong, too.
He might hurt me.
But why is he so fat?
The Wolf just sighs.
Then, the Wolf gets curious and calls the Dog.
Wolf: Wait, Dog!
Dog: What is it?
Wolf: Well, I was wondering Dog: Hurry up!
I must get home before dark.
Wolf: Well, I was curious.
You seem so healthy and well-fed.
Where do you live?
Dog: I live in a big house in the village.
My master feeds me well.
Wolf: What does he feed you?
Dog: Well, let me think.
He feeds me everything from meat to candy.
I live a very comfortable life.
But you look very sick and weak.
Have you eaten something today?
Wolf: I havent eaten for three days.
I cant find food anywhere.
Dog: Thats too bad.
If you come with me, you will be well-fed, too.
Wolf:Really?
!
But what must I do there?
Dog: Its very simple.
Just do what I do.
Wolf: What is that?
Dog: First, chase away thieves.
Second, bark at beggars.
Third, wag your tail in front of the master.
Wolf: Is that all?
Dog: Yes.
If you do a good job, youll be loved just like me.
The master will hug you and give you delicious treats Wolf: I cant believe it!
It is too easy.
I can do that.
Dog: Good.
Then follow me.
I will take you to my master.
The Wolf and the Dog walk together to the village.
The Wolf is so excited.
But then the Wolf sees a strange mark on the Dogs neck.
Wolf: Hey, what is that mark on your neck?
Dog: Its nothing.
Wolf: But the fur is worn there and the skin is red.
Dog: Its nothing really.
Its just my chain mark.
Wolf: what do you mean?
You are chained?
Dog: Well, yes, but only during the day.
Wolf: You cant go wherever you want?
Dog: Its not too bad.
Instead I dont worry about food.
The Wolf turns back.
Dog: Hey Wolf, where are you going?
Wolf: Good-bye, Dog.
I would rather be hungry than be chained.
