幽默阅读：猫和铃

    There were many mice in a house. The man of the house got a cat. The cat killed many of the mice.
    Then the oldest mouse said, " All mice must come to my hole tonight, and we will think what we can do about this cat.’
    All the mice came. Many mice spoke, but none knew what to do. At last a young mouse stood up and said, "We must put a bell on the cat. Then, when the cat comes near, we shall hear the bell and run away and hide. So the cat will not catch any more mice.’
    Then the old mouse asked, " Who will put the bell on the cat?"
    No mouse answered.
    He waited; but still no one answered.
    At last he said, "It is not hard to say things; but it is harder to do them."

    这时,最老的一只老鼠就说:“今天晚上,所有的老鼠必需到我的洞里来,咱们要想点办法,怎么来对付这只猫。”
    所有的老鼠都来了,很多老鼠都发言了,然而,谁也不知道该怎么办。最后,有一只年轻的老鼠站起来说:“咱们必须在猫的身上安顿一个铃,这样一来,当猫走近时,我们就会听到铃声,跑开躲起来,这样,猫就再也抓不到老鼠了。”这时,年纪大的老鼠说:“谁去给猫身上安铃呢?不一只老鼠答复。
    它等了一会儿,仍然没人回答。
    最后,它说:“说起来容易,但做起来难啊。”
