A fox invited a stork to dinner. 狐狸请鹳鸟去吃晚饭。

For a joke, he served soup in a wide, flat dish. 为了开个玩笑,他把汤盛在了一个又宽又平的浅盘里。

The fox could drink it easily. 狐狸轻轻松松就喝到了。

But the stork, with her long beak, couldn't get a single drop. 可鹳的嘴巴太长,一滴也喝不着。

She went home hungry, and the fox thought it was very funny. 她饿着肚子回了家,狐狸还觉得特别好笑。

A week later, the stork invited the fox to her house. 一周后,鹳也请狐狸去她家做客。

"Dinner is ready," she said with a smile. “晚饭做好了,”她笑着说。

The food was inside a tall jar with a very narrow neck. 食物装在一个细颈的高罐子里。

Her long beak reached it easily. 她的长嘴巴很轻松就能伸进去吃到。

All the fox could do was lick the outside of the jar. 狐狸却只能在外面舔舔罐子。

He went home hungry and didn't say a word. 他饿着肚子回了家,一句话也没说。

If you play tricks on people, 你要是总捉弄别人,

don't be surprised when they do the same to you. 那别人以同样的方式还治你时,就别觉得意外。
