A rich woman went on a trip in Thailand, and she took her pet dog with her. One day the dog started running after butterflies and before long he discovered that he was not able to find his way back. When wandering about ,he noticed a tiger heading quickly to him with the obvious desire of having lunch.
The dog thought,"God,I'm in deep trouble now.”
Then he noticed some bones on the ground nearby, and at once stopped to eat the bones with his back to the tiger.
Just as the tiger was about to jump,the dog said to himself loudly,"Hey,that was one delicious tiger. I wonder if there are any more around here?” Hearing this, the tiger stopped jumping,and ran away into the trees.
“Oh,” said the tiger,“That was dangerous. That dog nearly caught and ate me. ”
At the same time,a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, thought maybe he could make good use of this chance and trade it for protection from(免遭···的伤害)the tiger.
So,off the monkey went. He soon caught up with the tiger,and told the tiger the truth.
The tiger was very angry at being made a fool of and said, “Here monkey, stay on my back and see what's going to happen to that dog. "
When the dog saw the tiger coming again with the monkey on its back,he thought,"What am I going to do now?”
But instead of running, the dog sat down pretending he hadn't seen them yet.
Just when the monkey and the tiger got close enough to hear,the dog said,"Where's that monkey? I can not trust him any longer. I sent him off half an hour ago to bring me another tiger as my supper, and he's still not back!”
