The Value of a Second Language | 第二语言的价值

English Original

A mother mouse was out for a stroll with her babies when she spotted a cat crouched behind a bush. She watched the cat, and the cat watched the mice.

Mother mouse barked fiercely, "Woof, woof, woof!" The cat was so terrified that it ran for its life.

Mother mouse turned to her babies and said, "Now, do you understand the value of a second language?"


中文翻译

一只母老鼠正带着她的孩子们散步,这时她发现一只猫蜷伏在灌木丛后。她盯着猫,猫也盯着老鼠们。

母老鼠凶狠地吠叫起来:“汪,汪,汪!”猫吓得魂飞魄散,逃命去了。

母老鼠转向她的孩子们,说道:“现在,你们明白学习第二语言的价值了吗?”
