29 The polite rabbit 有礼貌的兔子Once upon a time, there was a humble rabbit who had very good manners.

One day, he went to a farm to eat some vegetables.

When his stomach was full he thought of leaving.

Unexpectedly, he met a fox.

从前有一只兔子，它非常谦虚，待人处世也彬彬有礼。

有一 天，它到农民的菜园里去摘菜吃。

当它把肚子填得胀鼓鼓的，正 准备离开时，遇到了一只狐狸。

The fox was on his way back to the forest.

In fact, he tried to steal a chicken but in vain.

这只狐狸正要返回森林。

原本它是想到农家院子里去偷只鸡 来，结果一无所获。

He was starving!

When the rabbit saw the fox, he was very frightened.

He swiftly ran to a cave.

Nevertheless, he felt that without permission he should not enter anyone's home.

它肚子饿极了。

兔子见到狐狸，心里一惊，连忙飞快地跑向一个山洞。

它知 道未经许可不能随便进入别人的地方，"I shall greet the cave before I go in, he thought.

Thus, he said politely, "Dear Cave, how are You?

May I come in?

" The big snake inside was so pleased to hear the voice of the rabbit that he said, "¨应当先跟山洞打个招呼，” 兔子想。

于是兔子彬彬有礼地说：¨亲爱的山洞，你好啊!

我可以 进来吗?

” 洞里的蛇听出这是兔子的声音，真是喜出望外，便回应道：Hurry up and come in" At once the rabbit knew who was inside the cave.

"Excuse me, " he said, "I think my mother is waiting for me at home.

Farewell now " The rabbit swiftly turned and dashed off.

¨欢迎!

快进来吧!

兔子一听声音就知道洞里是谁了。

¨请原谅，¨兔子说，¨我想我妈妈还在家里等我呢!

再见!

¨ 兔子一拔腿，便跑得不见踪影。

The big snake curled himself up in the cave, feeling very frustrated He said.

"Such a polite rabbit I shouldn’t have answered him at all "蛇在洞里缩成一团，懊丧地说：¨这只有礼貌的兔子，我真不该应声啊!
