1、The Grasshopper and the AntOnce upon a time, there was a grasshopper. He enjoyed lying in the grass and singing songs.“La! La! La! Ah! What a beautiful day!“One day, some ants stopped to rest. “Hey, you guys! Whats up?“ “We are gathering food. Whew! What a hot day!“ “You ants are foolish! It is too
2、hot to work. Come and enjoy the cool grass with me.“ “But we have to prepare for winter.“ “Winter? Winter is months away. You are so foolish! Prepare for winter when it comes.“Then, the ants left carrying their food. The grasshopper was not worried. “I have enough food for tonight. Why should I worr
3、y about tomorrow? ”So everyday, the grasshopper sang songs and rested in the cool grass.Then, fall arrived. The ants were busier than before. But the grasshopper just sang and sang. When he became hungry, he picked some leaves and ate them. But one day the grasshopper came out, to his surprise, the
4、earth was covered with snow. “Brrr! It is very cold outside. Now it is time to gather some food for the winter.“The next morning, the grasshopper saw an ant pass by his house. Ah, an ant. “Hello, dear Ant. Where are the leaves and the grass? I am hungry!“You are too late, Grasshopper. it is already
5、winter,You cannot find leaves or grass now.“ “Oh, yes I can. I can prepare for the winter. Just watch!“ The next day, the foolish grasshopper looked for food. But he found none. “There is no food any where. I will starve this winter.“ The grasshopper began to cry loudly.：“Im so foolish and lazy. Now, I have no food.“The ants heard the grasshopper. “Look at the grasshopper. we must share our food with him.“So the ants shared their food with the grasshopper. From that day on, he became the hardest working insect in the forest.
