　　    Following the death of old Mr. Fox, the wolf presented himself as a suitor. The cat, who was serving as Mrs. Fox's maid, opened the door. The wolf greeted her, saying:

　　    Good day, Mrs. Cat, Why are you sitting alone? What good things are you making there?

　　    "No thank you, Mrs. Cat." answered the wolf. "Isn't Mrs. Fox at home?"

　　    The cat said:

　　    She's upstairs in her room Mourning and grieving, Bemoaning her plight, Because old Mr. Fox is dead.

　　    The wolf answered:

　　    If she wants another man, Just have her come downstairs.

　　    The cat ran upstairs To give her the news. She ran to the great room, And knocked on the door With her five golden rings. "Mrs. Fox, are you in there? Do you want another man?"

　　    Mrs. Fox asked, "Is the gentleman wearing red breeches, and does he have a pointed little face?" 内容来自www. .com

　　    "No," answered the cat.

　　    "Then he's of no use to me."

　　    After the wolf had been sent away there came a dog, a deer, a hare, a bear, a lion, and all the other animals of the forest, one after the other. But each one lacked one of the good qualities that old Mr. Fox had had, and the cat had to send each of the suitors away. Finally a young fox came.

　　    "Then let him come upstairs," said Mrs. Fox, and she told the maid to make preparations for the wedding feast.

　　    Cat, sweep out the kitchen, And throw the old fox out the window. He brought home many a big fat mouse, But he ate them all alone, And never gave me a one. 内容来自www. .com

　　    Then Mrs. Fox married young Mr. Fox, and everyone danced and celebrated, and if they have not stopped, then they are dancing still.（注意这篇英语寓言故事中的简短英语口语，非常值得学习）
