Three fish lived in the sea when they were young. Their parents died. They had to look after each other. Finally, they grew up and decided to swim deeper and further. One morning the three fish were taken to shallow water by a big wave.
Never had the three fish been to such a place. Everything was so different. They had great fun swimming around. Then, with another big wave, a small boat was taken there too. Now it was hard for the fish to go back to the sea, because the boat was right in front of them.
The largest fish realized that they were in danger and said, “We have to find a way to leave here as fast as possible, or it will be dangerous.” The second largest fish agreed with his elder brother and decided to go with him. However, the youngest one decided not to leave at all, saying “It’s not dangerous at all. Look! There is much water for our activities.” No matter how hard his brothers tried to persuade him to leave, the youngest fish wouldn’t listen.
At last, the largest fish managed to find a way to return to the sea. He found the lowest part of the boat and jumped over it. Challenging as it was, he made it. The second largest fish also succeeded in joining his elder brother in the other side of the water, but the youngest one didn’t follow them, still swimming around joyfully.

Many years ago, a crocodile(鳄鱼)lived in a pool. He spent most of his time in the shady parts of the green pool. When he was hungry, he hid into the water towards the watering hole where all the animals gathered to drink the clear water on hot days. The crocodile was very cunning(狡猾的)and kept only his eyes above the water as he moved towards the other animals, Then his big jaws closed in on some unlucky animals that didn’t see him coming. They became his delicious dinner at last.
The crocodile said to himself, “I’m so strong that no one can get away from me. “ All of the animals were afraid of the crocodile except a butterfly(蝴蝶).
One day, the butterfly noticed the crocadile moving closer to the other animals in the pool. She flew around the crocodile’s eyes to get his attention. She said, “You might be strong, but I bet you won’t catch anything today. “ She flew in circles around the crocodile’s face.
The crocodile rose up out of the water a bit so he could talk to the butterfly. He said, “Of course I will. I’m the strongest animal in the pool. I can catch any animal I want. “ The butterfly flew past the crosodile’s nose and said, “I don’t think so. “ She flew very close to the crocodile’s car and teased(戏弄) him with her wings.
“Stop that!” The crocodile couldn’t keep his temper and shouted. Not far away, two birds looked up from the watering hole. They saw the danger and flew to the treetops just in case. At the same time, the rabbits and frogs at the watering hole looked up as well and saw the crocodile. In a flash, they all ran away and hid in the forest.
The butterfly danced in the air just in front of the croondile’s nose. “Being strong isn’t everything, you know.” Then she landed slowly on the tip of the crocodile’s nose. She teased his leathery skin with her wings.

A spider (蜘蛛) was looking for a suitable place to make its web. He wanted his web to be in such a place where a lot of insects and flies would come and get trapped in his web. In this way he wanted to spend his life eating, drinking and relaxing happily.
Soon, he found a corner (角落) of the room of a house and started preparing to make his web there.
Just when he started weaving (织网) the web, a cat passing by started laughed loudly after seeing him. When the spider saw the cat laughing, he asked, “Why are you laughing?”
The cat replied, “I am laughing because you are foolish. Can’t you see how clean this place is? No flies or insects will come here. Who will fall in your web?”
After listening to the cat, the spider gave up the idea of making a web in that corner and started looking for another place.
Then he saw a window and started weaving his web there. The spider had prepared half of the web. Then a bird came and started making fun of him, saying, “Have you lost your mind? Why weaving your web near this window? A strong wind will blow and your web will fly away.”
The spider understood and stopped weaving the web on the window and started looking for another place. While searching, his eyes fell on an old cupboard (橱柜). The door of that cupboard was slightly open. He went there and started weaving a web. Just then a cockroach (蟑螂) came and said, “It is useless to make a web at this place. This cupboard is very old. It will be sold in few days. All your hard work will go fruitless.”

Two fast friends were Willie and his little dog Bounce. Willie could never think of taking a walk without Bounce. Cake and play were equally shared between them. Willie taught his dog many cunning tricks, and often said that Bounce could do almost anything in the world but talk. Then on a bright summer afternoon, Willie had strolled with Bounce down to the river, which was not more than two blocks from his father’s store—Mr. Brown’s store.
Willie began to throw stones into the water, and to watch ripples as they made one circle after another. Bounce lay on the grass, watching the flies buzzing around his nose, and catching any that came too near.
There were some logs floating in the river near the bank. Willie jumped upon one of them to see if he could throw a stone across the river. He drew back, sent the stone with all strength, just as it left his hand, the log turned and he fell into the water. He was frightened, for he did not know how to swim, and there was no one to hear, though he called as loud as he could for help.
If he had been a big water dog, he could have jumped in and brought his master out.
