　　The city mouse and the country mouse

A city mouse and a country mouse were distant relatives. The country mouse wrote a letter to the city mouse. "How are you, my city cousin? Come visit us sometime." The city mouse in his best suit visited the country mouse.

"Welcome. Please help yourself before you leave." The country mouse prepared rice, beans and dried fruit. The city mouse laughed at the food and said,

"Gosh! You invited me over to give me this kind of food? You should come visit me. I will treat you to delicious food." The city mouse bragged about the city where he was living to the country mouse.

"Thank you for inviting me. I will come over for sure." Thinking about his trip to the city, the country mouse was too excited to sleep. 'At last, I'm going to the city tomorrow.'

Delighted, the country mouse came to the city mouse's house. "Knock, knock." "Anybody home?" "Oh, welcome!" greeted the city mouse cheerfully. The city mouse showed the country mouse all over his house.

The country mouse was surprised how grand the house was. "The house is really big. Magnificent! I am so proud that you are my relative." "Don't mention it." The city mouse was pleased.

The city mouse led the country mouse to the kitchen. When they climbed up the table, there were a large piece of bread, fruit and cheese on it. "Well, help yourself. I have food like this everyday." "Wow! They look delicious. I envy you."

The country mouse began eating the tasty cheese. It was right then that the kitchen door opened with a bang and a man came in. The city mouse dragged the country mouse and ran away helter-skelter.

Breathing heavily after hiding in the mouse-hole, the city mouse said, "Hugh! That was close." The country mouse was unable to understand the city mouse's behavior. However, on the next day and the following day, the same thing happened.

After a few days, the country mouse said to the city mouse, "I should go back to my house in the country. Even if I eat nothing but beans, I can live peacefully. Why don't you come with me to the country? It would be better than living here nervously like this."

The city mouse was so embarrassed that he could not do anything. The country mouse came back home and never went back to the city.

“歡迎。鄉下老鼠準備米飯、豆子和乾果，請你離開前請自便。城裏老鼠嘲笑食物説，

“天啊!你邀請我過來給我這種食物?你應該來看我。我會把你的美味食品。“城市老鼠吹噓他所在的城市生活的鄉下老鼠。

“謝謝你邀請我。我肯定會來的，“考慮到城裏的旅行，鄉下老鼠興奮得睡不着覺。”最後，我明天要去城裏。

鄉下老鼠高興地來到城裏老鼠家。敲門，“有人在家嗎?”哦，歡迎!”愉快地迎接城市老鼠。城裏老鼠在他的房子裏展示鄉下老鼠。

鄉下老鼠很驚訝房子有多大。”這房子真大。宏偉的!我很驕傲你是我的親戚。”“別客氣。”城裏老鼠很高興。

城裏老鼠把鄉下老鼠帶到廚房。當他們爬上桌子，有一大塊麪包，水果和奶酪。好吧，那你隨便。我每天都有這樣的.食物!他們看起來很好吃。我羨慕你。”

鄉下老鼠開始吃美味的奶酪。就在這時，廚房門砰的一聲開了，一個男人進來了。城市老鼠和鄉下老鼠拖倉皇逃走。

老鼠躲在老鼠洞裏喘着粗氣説：“休米!“鄉下老鼠無法理解城裏老鼠的行為.”。然而，在第二天和第二天，同樣的事情發生了。

過了幾天，鄉下老鼠對城裏老鼠説：“我應該回到鄉下的家裏去。即使我只吃豆子，我也能和平地生活。你為什麼不跟我一起去鄉下呢?這會比住在這裏緊張得多。”

城裏老鼠很尷尬，什麼也做不了。鄉下老鼠回家了，再也不回城裏去了。
