One day a lion met a spider(蜘蛛), who was just busy mak-
ing a web. The lion 1 for a while and said, “How clever
you are! How did you learn to do that?” The spider answered
proudly, “I learned it from my mother.”
The lion watched for a longer while. Then he asked the
spider, “But why don’t you catch your food in the way that
I do?”
“I am just a 2 animal,” the spider replied. “I cannot
run fast or fly. 3 with my web I can catch flying insects,
and I don’t even have to run after them.”
The lion then asked, “Could you make a 4 for me?
Then I would not have to run after animals either.”
“Sorry,” the spider said. “My web can only catch flying
insects. But you cannot love 5 them.”
The lion was angry with the spider. She did not have to work
6 for food. And she would not help him get his 7. So he
hit the web and broke it. But the spider jumped 8 the lion’s
back and bit him.
“Now you will 9 me,” said the spider as she jumped into
the grass. “Think carefully 10 you do something bad to other
animals. Some of us may be small, but we are very smart.”
The lion tried to scratch his back, but he could not reach
where the spider bit. It itched(发痒) for several days. He re-
membered the smart spider for a long time.

In a pond（池塘）, there lived many fish. They never lis- tened to anyone. Near this pond, there lived a kind old duck.
He told the fish, “It could bring danger to your life if you never listen to others.” 1. “It is that old duck, talking to himself again.” They would say.
One afternoon, the duck was resting near a stone beside the pond, when two fishermen stopped there to drink water.
The fishermen saw that the pond had many fish. “Look! This lake is full of fish,” said one of them. “2. ”
The duck heard all this. When the fishermen left, he quickly went into the pond and said to the fish, “You all have to leave this pond before morning. 3. ”
